Introduction
Virtex-II Prototype Platforms are prototype and demonstration boards that allow
designers to investigate and experiment with the features of Virtex-II series FPGAs. This
document describes the features and operation of the boards, including how to configure
chains of FPGAs and serial PROMs. Prototype Platforms are intended strictly for
evaluating the functionality of Virtex-II features and are not intended for A/C
characterization or high-speed I/O evaluation.
