13 years agoDecoupling for C-IV GX
Hi, I am using EP4CGX150CF23. I am not conversant with the PDN tool. I have very little idea of decoupling and bypassing. I came across the decoupling schematics for EP4CGX150DF31. There ...

12 years agoBoth are possible. Just be careful about the placement of your decoupling capacitors to reduce the high frequency supply and return current loops as much as possible. Generally I'm using a dedicated power plane for VCCINT, two other power planes with islands for the different VCCIO, VCCD_PLL and VCCA, and at least 3 ground planes. But this depends highly on your board routing and how many voltages you need to provide to the FPGA.
