XC2S50-5TQ144I

The XC2S50-5TQ144I is a Spartan®-II field programmable gate array (FPGA) in a 144-pin LQFP package designed for mid-range logic integration. With 1,728 logic elements, approximately 32 Kbits of on-chip RAM and up to 92 user I/O pins, it targets applications that require reusable, reprogrammable logic in industrial environments.

Supplied in a surface-mount 144-LQFP (supplier package 144-TQFP 20×20), the device supports a core voltage range of 2.375 V to 2.625 V and operates from −40 °C to 100 °C, making it suitable for temperature-demanding embedded designs.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity  1,728 logic elements providing the equivalent of approximately 50,000 gates for implementing custom combinational and sequential logic.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 32 Kbits of on-chip RAM for small buffers, lookup tables and state storage.
• I/O Resources  92 user I/O pins to interface with sensors, peripherals and external logic devices.
• Power  Core supply voltage specified at 2.375 V to 2.625 V to match compatible power domains.
• Package & Mounting  144-LQFP surface-mount package (supplier device package: 144-TQFP 20×20) for compact PCB implementation.
• Operating Range & Grade  Industrial-grade device rated for operation from −40 °C to 100 °C.
• RoHS Compliant  Manufactured to meet RoHS environmental requirements.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Control  Custom control logic for industrial equipment where 1,728 logic elements and 92 I/Os implement device-specific state machines and control paths.
• Interface Bridging  Protocol translation and signal conditioning between multiple peripherals, leveraging the device’s I/O count and reprogrammable logic.
• Prototyping and Evaluation  Platform for validating mid-range logic designs and firmware/hardware partitioning using onboard RAM and programmable fabric.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic Density: 1,728 logic elements offer a mid-range capacity that supports complex glue logic and moderate system functions without excessive board-level components.
• On-Chip Memory: Approximately 32 Kbits of embedded RAM reduces external memory needs for small buffers and control state storage.
• Generous I/O Count: 92 user I/O pins simplify integration with sensors, displays and peripheral devices, reducing the need for external expanders.
• Industrial Temperature Rating: Operation from −40 °C to 100 °C enables deployment in temperature-challenging environments.
• Compact Surface-Mount Package: 144-LQFP (20×20) footprint supports compact PCB layouts and automated assembly.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance supports environmental and manufacturing requirements.
