This fully tested reference design provides a complete power-supply solution for powering a typical Xilinx Kintex-7 series field-programmable gate array (FPGA) using Maxim's power-supply solutions. The Kintex-7 (7K325T FPGA application) requires eight distinct power supply rails as follows:
Design Description | ||||
FPGA Rail | Input Voltage | Output Voltage | Current | Maxim Solution |
---|---|---|---|---|
VCCINT, VCCBRAM | 12V | 1V | 6A | MAX8686 |
VCCAUX, VCCAUX_IO, VCCO, VCCADC, MGTAVCCAUX | 12V | 1.8V | 6A | MAX8686 |
MGTAVCC | 12V | 1V | 6A | MAX8686 |
VCC0 | 12V | 3.3V | 8A | MAX8686 |
VCC0 | 12V | 2.5V | 8A | MAX8686 |
VCC0 | 12V | 1.5V/1.35V | 4A | MAX8654 |
MGTAVTT, MGTAVTTRCAL | 12V | 1.2V | 4A | MAX8654 |
VCCAUX_IO | 12V | 2V | 2A | MAX15041 |
This reference design provides the required eight power rails using five MAX8686 synchronous pulse-width modulation (PWM) step-down regulators, two MAX8654 high-efficiency switching regulators, and the MAX15041 low-cost synchronous DC-DC converter with internal switches. These devices can be sequenced at power-up, as indicated in Figure 1.
