Powersupply virtex 2 and spartan 3

[Bram van de Kerkhof]

Hi,

Im looking for a regulator for the 1.5 and 1.2 Volt.

I have a insight board as reference which has 2 times a 1.5 amps regulators
for the 1.5 V.

I would like to have one regulator on my own design.

I'm going to use the following components: xc2v1000 and xc3s400 later.

Yours Bram

Bram,

TI has a webpage pdf on how to power all Xilinx FPGAs. It lists linear
regulators, switching regulators, and modules from 200 mA to 12 amperes (and
greater).

Micrel, Linear Tech, Power One, Summit Labs, Vishay, Analog Devices and many
other have powering solutions for FPGAs, as well.

These are the few who have come to San Jose in the last year to visit us, and
go thru their line cards with us, provide us samples to test, etc. Contact
your favorite from the list above, and they will be happy to provide you with a
tested and working solution.

I am not sure what your current requirements are since they greatly
depend on the design you put in the FPGA. You also don't say if you
want a linear or a switching regulator. But I can recommend the TI
Swift line of switchers if that suits your needs. They have 3 Amp parts
and 6 Amp parts. We are designing a module that uses the 3 Amp part and
will provide up to 3 Amps in a 0.3 sq in foot print. The module may not
be able to supply 3 Amps continuously due to heat issues. With such a
small module we don't have the copper the data sheet recommends for
cooling. We will be testing this next month to see what the limits are
over 0C to 70C and -40C to 85C.

If you are interested in a module this small I can keep you informed on
our results.
