If the application requires multiple FPGAs with different con-
figurations, then configure the FPGAs using a daisy chain.
Use Slave Parallel mode (M[2:0] = <1:1:0>) for all FPGAs in
the daisy-chain. The schematic in Figure 59 is optimized for
FPGA downloading and does not support the SelectMAP
read interface. The FPGA’s RDWR_B pin must be Low dur-
ing configuration.
FPGA’s I/O Bank 2, supplied by the VCCO_2 supply input.
The VCCO_2 voltage can be 1.8V, 2.5V, or 3.3V to match
the requirements of the external host, ideally 2.5V. Using
1.8V or 3.3V requires additional design considerations as
the DONE and PROG_B pins are powered by the FPGA’s
2.5V VCCAUX supply. See application note XAPP453: "The
3.3V Configuration of Spartan-3 FPGAs" for additional infor-
mation.
After the lead FPGA is filled with its configuration data, the
lead FPGA enables the next FPGA in the daisy-chain by
asserting is chip-select output, CSO_B.
The LDC[2:0] and HDC signal are active in I/O Bank 1 but
are not used in the interface. Consequently, VCCO_1 can
be set the appropriate voltage for the application.
