Introduction

The Virtex-4 prototype platform and demonstration boards allow designers to investigate and experiment with the features of Virtex-4 series FPGAs. This user guide describes the features and operation of the Virtex-4 prototype platform, including how to configure chains of FPGAs and serial PROMs.

Note: Prototype platforms are intended strictly for evaluating the functionality of Virtex-4 features and are not intended for A/C characterization or high-speed I/O evaluation.
