Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]
Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Text Block]	Recent Accounting Changes and Accounting Pronouncements Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted Leases In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued authoritative guidance on leases. The new authoritative guidance requires the recognition of assets and liabilities arising from lease transactions on the balance sheet and additional disclosures about the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows from leases. Accordingly, a lessee recognizes a lease asset for its right to use the underlying asset and a lease liability for the corresponding lease obligation. The Company adopted this authoritative guidance using modified retrospective method during first quarter of fiscal 2020 and resulted in the recognition of right-of-use assets of approximately $50.0 million and lease liabilities for operating leases of approximately $50.0 million on March 31, 2019, the beginning of fiscal 2020. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease, or contains a lease, at the inception of the arrangement. On the commencement date, leases are evaluated for classification, and assets and liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement in determining the present value of lease payments. Operating lease expense is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has elected the practical expedients to not separate lease and non-lease components within lease transactions, and not to record on the balance sheet leases with a term of 12 months or less. The Company also has elected the package of practical expedients, which allows the Company not to reassess (1) whether any expired or existing contracts as of the adoption date are or contain a lease, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases as of the adoption date and (3) initial direct costs for any existing leases as of the adoption date. The Company did not elect to apply the hindsight practical expedient when determining lease term and assessing impairment of right-of-use assets.

Significant Customers and Concentrations of Credit Risk [Abstract]
Concentration Risk Disclosure [Text Block]	Significant Customers and Concentrations of Credit Risk Avnet, Inc. (Avnet), one of the Company’s distributors, distributes the Company’s products worldwide. As of June 29, 2019 and March 30, 2019 , Avnet accounted for 40% and 37% of the Company’s total net accounts receivable, respectively. Net revenues from Avnet accounted for 40% and 52% of the Company’s worldwide net revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and 2019 , respectively. While the percentage of worldwide net revenues from Avnet fluctuates from period to period, overall the percentage is within historical ranges. For the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and 2019 , approximately 50% and 63% , respectively, of the Company's net revenues were from products sold to distributors for subsequent resale to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) or their subcontract manufacturers. Xilinx is subject to concentrations of credit risk primarily in its trade accounts receivable and investments in debt securities to the extent of the amounts recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company attempts to mitigate the concentration of credit risk in its trade receivables through its credit evaluation process, collection terms, distributor sales to diverse end customers and through geographical dispersion of sales. Xilinx generally does not require collateral for receivables from its end customers or distributors. No other distributor or end customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s worldwide net revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and 2019 . The Company mitigates concentrations of credit risk in its investments in debt securities by currently investing approximately 91% of its portfolio in AA (or its equivalent) or higher-grade securities as rated by Standard & Poor’s or Moody’s Investors Service. The Company’s methods to arrive at investment decisions are not solely based on the rating agencies’ credit ratings. Xilinx also performs additional credit due diligence and conducts regular portfolio credit reviews, including a review of counterparty credit risk related to the Company’s forward currency exchange and interest rate swap contracts. Additionally, Xilinx limits its investments in the debt securities of a single issuer based upon the issuer’s credit rating and attempts to further mitigate credit risk by diversifying risk across geographies and type of issuer. As of June 29, 2019 , all of the mortgage-backed securities in the Company's investment portfolio were issued by U.S. government-sponsored enterprises and agencies and are rated AA+ by Standard & Poor’s and Aaa by Moody’s Investors Service.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements	3 Months Ended

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements The authoritative guidance for fair value measurements established by the FASB defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which Xilinx would transact and also considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions and risk of nonperformance. The Company determines the fair value for marketable debt securities using industry standard pricing services, data providers and other third-party sources and by internally performing valuation testing and analysis. The Company primarily uses a consensus price or weighted-average price for its fair value assessment. The Company determines the consensus price using market prices from a variety of industry standard pricing services, data providers, security master files from large financial institutions and other third-party sources and uses those multiple prices as inputs into a distribution-curve-based algorithm to determine the daily market value. The pricing services use multiple inputs to determine market prices, including reportable trades, benchmark yield curves, credit spreads and broker/dealer quotes as well as other industry and economic events. For certain securities with short maturities, such as discount commercial paper and certificates of deposit, the security is accreted from purchase price to face value at maturity. If a subsequent transaction on the same security is observed in the marketplace, the price on the subsequent transaction is used as the current daily market price and the security will be accreted to face value based on the revised price. The Company validates the consensus prices by taking random samples from each asset type and corroborating those prices using reported trade activity, benchmark yield curves, binding broker/dealer quotes or other relevant price information. There have not been any changes to the Company’s fair value methodology during the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and the Company did not adjust or override any fair value measurements as of June 29, 2019 . Fair Value Hierarchy The fair value framework requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. The guidance for fair value measurements requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following categories: Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Company’s Level 1 assets consist of U.S. government securities and money market funds. Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. The Company’s Level 2 assets consist of financial institution securities, non-financial institution securities, U.S. agency securities, foreign government and agency securities, mortgage-backed securities, debt mutual funds, asset-backed securities and commercial mortgage-backed securities. The Company’s Level 2 assets and liabilities also include foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swap contracts. Level 3 — Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include those whose fair value measurements are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar valuation techniques, as well as significant management judgment or estimation. The Company has no Level 3 assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis In instances where the inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the fair value measurement has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular item to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, including the consideration of inputs specific to the asset or liability. The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 29, 2019 and March 30, 2019 : June 29, 2019 (In thousands) Quoted Significant Significant Total Fair Assets Cash equivalents: Money market funds $ 585,075 $ — $ — $ 585,075 Financial institution securities — 209,853 — 209,853 Non-financial institution securities — 179,408 — 179,408 U.S. government and agency securities 149,935 12,304 — 162,239 Foreign government and agency securities — 364,461 — 364,461 Short-term investments: Financial institution securities — 300,000 — 300,000 Non-financial institution securities — 132,405 — 132,405 U.S. government and agency securities 67,095 38,082 — 105,177 Foreign government and agency securities — 34,946 — 34,946 Mortgage-backed securities — 576,547 — 576,547 Asset-backed securities — 50,271 — 50,271 Commercial mortgage-backed securities — 93,765 — 93,765 Long-term investments: Debt mutual fund — 54,849 — 54,849 Derivative financial instruments, net — 1,306 — 1,306 Total assets measured at fair value $ 802,105 $ 2,048,197 $ — $ 2,850,302 March 30, 2019 (In thousands) Quoted Significant Significant Total Fair Assets Cash equivalents: Money market funds $ 428,150 $ — $ — $ 428,150 Financial institution securities — 287,945 — 287,945 Non-financial institution securities — 461,884 — 461,884 U.S. government and agency securities 149,578 53,520 — 203,098 Foreign government and agency securities — 99,750 — 99,750 Short-term investments: Financial institution securities — 249,850 — 249,850 Non-financial institution securities — 240,040 — 240,040 U.S. government and agency securities 93,149 37,838 — 130,987 Foreign government and agency securities — 114,705 — 114,705 Mortgage-backed securities — 670,770 — 670,770 Debt mutual fund — 31,934 — 31,934 Asset-backed securities — 76,369 — 76,369 Commercial mortgage-backed securities — 116,539 — 116,539 Long-term investments: Debt mutual fund — 53,433 — 53,433 Total assets measured at fair value $ 670,877 $ 2,494,577 $ — $ 3,165,454 Liabilities Derivative financial instruments, net $ — $ 9,009 $ — $ 9,009 Total liabilities measured at fair value $ — $ 9,009 $ — $ 9,009 Net assets measured at fair value $ 670,877 $ 2,485,568 $ — $ 3,156,445 For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash held in banks, accounts receivable and accounts payable, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities, and are therefore excluded from the fair value tables above. Financial Instruments Not Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis The Company's $500.0 million principal amount of 3.000% notes due March 15, 2021 (2021 Notes) and $750.0 million principal amount of 2.950% senior notes due June 1, 2024 (2024 Notes) are measured at fair value on a quarterly basis for disclosure purposes. The fair values of the 2021 Notes and 2024 Notes as of June 29, 2019 were approximately $503.7 million and $762.5 million , respectively, based on the last trading price for the period (classified as Level 2 in fair value hierarchy due to relatively low trading volume). Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis As of June 29, 2019 , the Company had non-marketable equity securities in private companies of $72.8 million , which were classified as Level 3 assets. The Company’s investments in non-marketable securities of private companies are recorded at fair value if the Company recognizes an observable price adjustment or an impairment. Such impairment losses or observable price adjustments were not material during all periods presented. The Company’s investments in non-financial assets such as property, plant and equipment, goodwill and acquisition-related intangibles, are recorded at cost (net of accumulated depreciation or amortization, where applicable). These non-financial assets are reduced to fair value when impaired.

Substantially all time deposits were issued by institutions outside the U.S. as of June 29, 2019 and March 30, 2019 . The following tables show the fair values and gross unrealized losses of the Company’s investments, aggregated by investment category, for individual securities that have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for the length of time specified, as of June 29, 2019 and March 30, 2019 : June 29, 2019 Less Than 12 Months 12 Months or Greater Total (In thousands) Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Non-financial institution securities $ — $ — $ 38,010 $ (176 ) $ 38,010 $ (176 ) U.S. government and agency securities — — 13,633 (47 ) 13,633 (47 ) Mortgage-backed securities 40,762 (148 ) 411,450 (5,018 ) 452,212 (5,166 ) Asset-backed securities 6,458 (3 ) 35,955 (110 ) 42,413 (113 ) Commercial mortgage- backed securities 7,060 (16 ) 68,478 (577 ) 75,538 (593 ) $ 54,280 $ (167 ) $ 567,526 $ (5,928 ) $ 621,806 $ (6,095 ) March 30, 2019 Less Than 12 Months 12 Months or Greater Total (In thousands) Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Non-financial institution securities $ 4,767 $ (4 ) $ 51,044 $ (558 ) $ 55,811 $ (562 ) U.S. government and agency securities — — 13,542 (139 ) 13,542 (139 ) Mortgage-backed securities 34,595 (480 ) 597,394 (14,155 ) 631,989 (14,635 ) Asset-backed securities — — 76,103 (483 ) 76,103 (483 ) Commercial mortgage- backed securities 1,354 (3 ) 112,294 (1,615 ) 113,648 (1,618 ) $ 40,716 $ (487 ) $ 850,377 $ (16,950 ) $ 891,093 $ (17,437 ) As of June 29, 2019 , the gross unrealized losses that had been outstanding for both less than twelve months and more than twelve months were primarily related to mortgage-backed securities, which was primarily due to the general rising of the interest-rate environment although the percentage of such losses to the total estimated fair value of the mortgage-backed securities was relatively insignificant. The Company reviewed the investment portfolio and determined that the gross unrealized losses on these investments as of June 29, 2019 and March 30, 2019 were temporary in nature as evidenced by the fluctuations in the gross unrealized losses within the investment categories. The marketable debt securities (financial institution securities, non-financial institution securities, U.S. and foreign government and agency securities, asset-backed securities, mortgage-backed securities and commercial mortgage-backed securities) are highly rated by the credit rating agencies, there have been no defaults on any of these securities and the Company has received interest payments as they become due. Therefore, the Company believes that it will be able to collect both principal and interest amount due to the Company. Additionally, in the past several years a portion of the Company's investment in the mortgage-backed securities was redeemed or prepaid by the debtors at par. Furthermore, the aggregate of individual unrealized losses that had been outstanding for twelve months or more was not significant as of June 29, 2019 and March 30, 2019 . The Company neither intends to sell these investments nor concludes that it is more-likely-than-not that it will have to sell them until recovery of their carrying values. The amortized cost and estimated fair value of marketable debt securities, by contractual maturity, are shown in the table below. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations without call or prepayment penalties. June 29, 2019 (In thousands) Amortized Estimated Due in one year or less $ 1,449,786 $ 1,449,796 Due after one year through five years 112,270 111,905 Due after five years through ten years 120,976 120,656 Due after ten years 530,441 526,715 $ 2,213,473 $ 2,209,072 As of June 29, 2019 , $759.3 million of marketable debt securities with contractual maturities of greater than one year were classified as short-term investments. Additionally, the above table does not include investments in money market funds and debt mutual funds because these investments do not have specific contractual maturities. Certain information related to available-for-sale securities is as follows: Three Months Ended (In thousands) June 29, 2019 June 30, 2018 Proceeds from sale of available-for-sale securities $ 156,094 $ 895 Gross realized gains on sale of available-for-sale securities $ 604 $ 96 Gross realized losses on sale of available-for-sale securities (39 ) (47 ) Net realized gains on sale of available-for-sale securities $ 565 $ 49 Amortization of premiums on available-for-sale securities $ 711 $ 2,491 The cost of securities matured or sold is based on the specific identification method. The Company records the change in the fair value of its investment in debt mutual funds as part of its interest and other income (expense), net. This change in fair value was a net increase of $1.4 million for the three months ended June 29, 2019 and resulted in a gain within interest and other income (expense) net for the period. During the three months ended June 29, 2019

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivative Financial Instruments	Derivative Financial Instruments The Company’s primary objective for holding derivative financial instruments is to manage foreign currency exchange rate risk and interest rate risk. As a result of the use of derivative financial instruments, the Company is exposed to the risk that counterparties to derivative contracts may fail to meet their contractual obligations. The Company manages counterparty credit risk in derivative contracts by reviewing counterparty creditworthiness on a regular basis, establishing collateral requirement and limiting exposure to any single counterparty. The right of set-off that exists with certain transactions enables the Company to net amounts due to and from the counterparty, reducing the maximum loss from credit risk in the event of counterparty default. In May 2017, the Company entered into interest rate swap contracts with certain independent financial institutions to manage interest rate risks related to fixed interest rate expenses from its 2024 Notes and floating interest rate income from its investments in marketable debt securities. The interest rate swap contracts were designated and qualified as fair value hedges of the 2024 Notes and were separately accounted for as a derivative. The interest rate swap contracts and the 2024 Notes were initially measured at fair value. Changes in fair values of the interest rate swap contracts and the 2024 Notes were recorded in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. During the three months ended June 29, 2019 , the Company sold the interest rate swap contracts for an immaterial gain. The gain will be amortized as a reduction to interest expense over the remaining life of the 2024 Notes. As a result of the sale, the Company recorded the net change in fair value of the interest rate swap contracts of $11.7 million in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets for the period ended June 29, 2019 . See “Note 10. Debt and Credit Facility” for more discussion related to interest rate swap contracts. There was no ineffectiveness during all periods presented.

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]
Stock-Based Compensation Plans	Stock-Based Compensation Plans The Company’s equity incentive plans are broad-based, long-term retention programs that cover employees, consultants and non-employee directors of the Company. These plans are intended to attract and retain talented employees, consultants and non-employee directors and to provide such persons with a proprietary interest in the Company. Stock-Based Compensation The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense related to stock awards granted under the Company’s equity incentive plans and rights to acquire stock granted under the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP): Three Months Ended (In thousands) June 29, 2019 June 30, 2018 Stock-based compensation included in: Cost of revenues $ 2,613 $ 2,035 Research and development 24,874 20,930 Selling, general and administrative 15,266 12,643 $ 42,753 $ 35,608 Employee Stock Option Plans The types of awards allowed under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (2007 Equity Plan) include incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock units (RSUs), restricted stock and stock appreciation rights. As of June 29, 2019 , 11.1 million shares remained available for grant under the 2007 Equity Plan. RSU Awards A summary of the Company’s RSU activity and related information is as follows: RSUs Outstanding (Shares in thousands) Number of Shares Weighted-Average Grant-Date Fair Value Per Share March 31, 2018 6,989 $ 51.39 Granted 3,559 $ 66.94 Vested (2,681 ) $ 49.05 Cancelled (536 ) $ 55.09 March 30, 2019 7,331 $ 59.54 Granted 325 $ 98.73 Vested (133 ) $ 55.40 Cancelled (64 ) $ 64.91 June 29, 2019 7,459 $ 61.28 The estimated fair values of RSUs were calculated based on the market price of Xilinx common stock on the date of grant, reduced by the present value of dividends expected to be paid on Xilinx common stock prior to vesting. The per share weighted-average fair value of RSUs granted during the first quarter of fiscal 2020 was $98.73 ( $65.69 for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 ), which were calculated based on estimates at the date of grant using the following weighted-average assumptions: Three Months Ended June 29, 2019 June 30, 2018 Risk-free interest rate 2.1 % 2.7 % Dividend yield 1.2 % 2.1 % For the majority of RSUs granted, the number of shares of common stock issued on the date the RSU awards vest is net of the minimum statutory withholding requirements that the Company pays in cash to the appropriate taxing authorities on behalf of the Company's employees. During the first three months of fiscal 2020 and 2019 , the Company withheld $4.1 million and $5.5 million worth of RSU awards, respectively, to satisfy the employees’ tax obligations. The amounts of excess tax benefits, primarily from RSU vesting, were immaterial for all periods presented. Employee Stock Purchase Plan The fair values of stock purchase plan rights under the Company’s ESPP were estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Under the Company’s ESPP, shares are only issued during the second and fourth quarters of each fiscal year. Therefore, no shares were issued during the first quarter of fiscal 2020 or 2019 . The next scheduled purchase under the ESPP is in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 . As of June 29, 2019 , 11.4 million

Net Income Per Common Share	Net Income Per Common Share The computation of basic net income per common share for all periods presented is derived from information on the condensed consolidated statements of income, and there are no reconciling items in the numerator used to compute the diluted net income per common share. The following table summarizes the computation of basic and diluted net income per common share: (In thousands, except per share amounts) June 29, 2019 June 30, 2018 Net income available to common stockholders $ 241,459 $ 190,038 Weighted average common shares outstanding-basic 253,268 252,682 Dilutive effect of employee equity incentive plans 4,660 3,253 Weighted average common shares outstanding-diluted 257,928 255,935 Basic net income per common share $ 0.95 $ 0.75 Diluted net income per common share $ 0.94 $ 0.74 The total shares used in the denominator of the diluted net income per common share calculation include potentially dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding that are not included in basic net income per common share calculation. The diluted shares were calculated by applying the treasury stock method to the impact of the equity incentive plans. Certain shares of outstanding stock options and RSUs were excluded from diluted net income per common share calculation by applying the treasury stock method, as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. These options and RSUs were immaterial for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and 2019 , respectively, but could be dilutive in the future if the Company’s average share price increases and is greater than the combined exercise prices and the unamortized fair values of these options and RSUs.

Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract]
Common Stock and Debentures Repurchase Program [Text Block]	Common Stock Repurchase Program The Board of Directors (Board) has approved stock repurchase programs enabling the Company to repurchase its common stock in the open market or through negotiated transactions with independent financial institutions. On May 16, 2016, the Board authorized the repurchase of up to $1.00 billion of the Company's common stock and debentures (2016 Repurchase Program). On May 16, 2018, the Board authorized another program (2018 Repurchase Program) to repurchase the Company's common stock and debentures up to $500.0 million . The 2016 and 2018 Repurchase Programs have no stated expiration date. Through June 29, 2019 , the Company fully utilized the entire amount authorized under the 2016 Repurchase Program and used $266.7 million of the $500.0 million authorized under the 2018 Repurchase Program, leaving $233.3 million available for future repurchases. The Company’s current policy is to retire all repurchased shares, and consequently, no treasury shares were held as of June 29, 2019 and March 30, 2019 . During the first quarter of fiscal 2020 , the Company repurchased 1.4 million shares of common stock in the open market for a total of $145.0 million . Additionally, the Company entered into a stock repurchase agreement with an independent financial institution to repurchase shares under the 2018 Repurchase Program. Under the agreement, the Company provided the financial institution with an up-front payment totaling $300.0 million and the financial institution agreed to deliver to the Company a certain number of shares based upon the volume weighted-average price, during an averaging period, less a specified discount. Under this arrangement, the Company received an initial 1.6 million shares of common stock during the first quarter of fiscal 2020 for $168.1 million (estimated based on volume-weighted average price up to June 29, 2019). The initial shares received by the Company were retired, accounted for as a reduction to stockholders' equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and treated as a repurchase of common stock for purposes of calculating earnings per share. The remaining estimated $131.9 million under this arrangement is considered indexed to the Company's common stock and met all of the applicable criteria for equity classification. The Company expects to receive additional shares and a portion of the remaining estimated $131.9 million back during the next quarter. During the first quarter of fiscal 2019 , the Company repurchased 2.1 million shares of common stock in the open market for a total of $136.8 million .

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes The Company recorded a tax provision of $21.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 as compared to $22.9 million in the same prior year period, representing effective tax rates of 8% and 11% , respectively. The difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% and the Company's effective tax rate in all periods presented was primarily due to the beneficial impact of income earned in lower tax rate jurisdictions, which was partially offset by U.S. tax on global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI). The Company’s total gross unrecognized tax benefits as of June 29, 2019 , determined in accordance with FASB authoritative guidance for measuring uncertain tax positions, increased by $1.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 to $148.8 million . The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if realized in a future period, would favorably affect the effective tax rate was $36.5 million as of June 29, 2019 . Another $85.5 million would increase additional paid-in capital. The $85.5 million relates to an additional deduction claimed on federal and state amended tax returns for fiscal 2014 for repurchase premium paid in that year in connection with the early redemption of the Company’s 3.125% Junior Convertible debenture due March 15, 2037. It is reasonably possible that changes to the Company's unrecognized tax benefits could be significant in the next twelve months due to tax audit settlements and lapses of statutes of limitation. As a result of uncertainties regarding tax audit settlements and their possible outcomes, an estimate of the range of increase or decrease that could occur in the next twelve months cannot be made. The Company’s policy is to include interest and penalties related to income tax liabilities within the provision for income taxes on the condensed consolidated statements of income. The balance of accrued interest and penalties recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and the amounts of interest and penalties included in the Company's provision for income taxes were not material for all periods presented. The statutes of limitations have closed for U.S. federal income tax purposes for years through fiscal 2014, for U.S. state income tax purposes for years through fiscal 2010, and for Ireland income tax purposes for years through fiscal 2014. On July 27, 2015, the United States Tax Court (Tax Court) issued its opinion in Altera Corp. v. Commissioner, and, in a 15-0 decision, concluded that related parties in a cost sharing arrangement are not required to share expenses related to stock-based compensation. The Commissioner appealed the Tax Court decision to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals (Ninth Circuit). The Ninth Circuit overturned the Tax Court’s decision in an opinion issued on July 24, 2018, but subsequently withdrew it. After rehearing the arguments on October 16, 2018, the Ninth Circuit issued a subsequent opinion on June 7, 2019. In a 2-1 decision, the Ninth Circuit overturned the Tax Court’s decision. On July 22, 2019, Altera filed a petition for an en banc rehearing with the Ninth Circuit, which will consist of a panel of 11 judges. In the case of a denial of a Ninth Circuit en banc rehearing or a decision against Altera following an en banc rehearing, Altera can appeal to the United States Supreme Court for review. Since the Altera decision is not yet final, we believe the law to be unsettled and continue to record tax benefits as we exclude stock-based compensation costs from our cost sharing arrangement. As of the fiscal quarter ended June 29, 2019, the potential impact of a final adverse decision to the consolidated statement of income could be as much as $45.0 million for prior years' taxes and interest. We will continue to monitor developments in the Altera case and the potential effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Leases and Commitments	Leases and Commitments Xilinx leases some of its facilities and office buildings under non-cancelable operating leases that expire at various dates through August 2029 . Additionally, Xilinx entered into a land lease in conjunction with the Company’s building in Singapore, which will expire in November 2035 and the lease cost was settled in an up-front payment in June 2006. Some of the operating leases for facilities and office buildings require payment of operating costs, including property taxes, repairs, maintenance and insurance.

Product Warranties Disclosures [Abstract]
Product Warranty Disclosure [Text Block]	Product Warranty and Indemnification The Company generally sells products with a limited warranty for product quality. The Company provides an accrual for known product issues if a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. As of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and the end of fiscal 2019 , the accrual balances of the product warranty liability were immaterial. The Company offers, subject to certain terms and conditions, to indemnify customers and distributors for costs and damages awarded against these parties in the event the Company’s hardware products are found to infringe third-party intellectual property rights, including patents, copyrights or trademarks, and to compensate certain customers for limited specified costs they actually incur in the event the Company's hardware products experience epidemic failure. To a lesser extent, the Company may from time-to-time offer limited indemnification with respect to its software products. The terms and conditions of these indemnity obligations are limited by contract, which obligations are typically perpetual from the effective date of the agreement. The Company has historically received only a limited number of requests for indemnification under these provisions and has not made any significant payments pursuant to these provisions. The Company cannot estimate the maximum amount of potential future payments, if any, that the Company may be required to make as a result of these obligations due to the limited history of indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances that are likely to be involved in each particular claim and indemnification provision. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will not incur any financial liabilities in the future as a result of these obligations.

Loss Contingency [Abstract]
Contingencies	Contingencies Other Matters On June 11, 2015, John P. Neblett, as Chapter 7 Trustee of Valley Forge Composite Technologies, Inc., filed a complaint against Xilinx and others in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania (Bankruptcy No. 1:13-bk-05253-JJT). The complaint alleges causes of actions against Xilinx for negligence and civil conspiracy relating to alleged violations of U.S. export laws. It seeks at least $50.0 million in damages, together with punitive damages, from the defendants. On September 21, 2015, the action was withdrawn from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania and transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky. On November 2, 2015, Xilinx, along with other defendants, filed a motion to dismiss the complaint. On November 3, 2015, Xilinx filed a motion for sanctions pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11. On June 27, 2016, the Court denied both motions. On September 11, 2017, Xilinx, along with other defendants, filed motions for summary judgment seeking to dispose of all claims against them. On July 3, 2018, the Court granted both of Xilinx’s Motions for Summary Judgment, disposing of all claims asserted against Xilinx. On August 1, 2018, the Trustee filed a Notice of Appeal. On August 9, 2018, the Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit issued an Order to Show Cause requesting that the appellant address a possible jurisdictional defect. On August 29, 2018, the appellant responded to the Order to Show Cause. On September 10, 2018, appellees, including Xilinx, filed a joint reply. On January 7, 2019, the Court of Appeals issued an order dismissing the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. On February 19, 2019, the District Court issued an order permitting any party seeking to certify the case for appeal to file a motion. On March 11, 2019, defendant Avnet filed a motion to certify the case for appeal. On May 14, 2019 the Court denied Avnet’s motion. On June 4, 2019, Avnet and the counterclaim and crossclaim defendants stipulated to dismissal of Avnet’s remaining counterclaims and crossclaims. The Court entered final judgment on June 25, 2019. From time to time, the Company is involved in various disputes and litigation matters that arise in the ordinary course of its business. These include disputes and lawsuits related to intellectual property, mergers and acquisitions, licensing, contract law, tax, regulatory, distribution arrangements, employee relations and other matters. Periodically, the Company reviews the status of each matter and assesses its potential financial exposure. If the potential loss from any claim or legal proceeding is considered probable and a range of possible losses can be estimated, the Company accrues a liability for the estimated loss. Legal proceedings are subject to uncertainties, and the outcomes are difficult to predict. Because of such uncertainties, accruals are based only on the best information available at the time. As additional information becomes available, the Company continues to reassess the potential liability related to pending claims and litigation and may revise estimates.
