Revisions EXX and later are affected.

Reason for the Change

The PUDC_B pin on the Kintex-7 (pin B25, bank 14) controls the state of I/O pullups during startup (after power-up and during configuration). On revision EXX and earlier, the PUDC_B pin is pulled low, enabling I/O pullups during startup. This can cause unexpected behavior. For example, voltage sources connected to I/O pins with VREF functionality can become damaged when pulled to an incompatible voltage. On revision FXX and later, the PUDC_B pin is pulled high, disabling I/O pullups during startup.

Description of the Change

The resistors connected to the Kintex-7 PUDC_B pin are populated according to the table below.

User Modification

To change the default startup behavior of your device, please see PUDC_B Configuration for information on modifying the default PUDC_B pull-up/pull-down resistor configuration.
