Overview of XC6SLX16-3FT256C – Spartan®-6 LX FPGA, 256‑LBGA
The XC6SLX16-3FT256C is a Spartan®-6 LX field programmable gate array supplied in a 256‑ball LBGA package. It delivers a balance of programmable logic capacity, embedded memory, and I/O density for commercial electronic designs.
As a commercial‑grade FPGA, this device is suitable for applications that require on‑board programmable logic, flexible I/O interfacing, and a compact surface‑mount package while operating within a 0 °C to 85 °C temperature range.
Key Features
- Logic Capacity 14,579 logic elements and 1,139 configurable logic blocks provide substantial programmable logic resources for custom digital designs.
- Embedded Memory Approximately 0.59 Mbits of on‑chip RAM (589,824 total bits) to support buffering, storage for state machines, and small data structures.
- I/O 186 user I/O pins for flexible interfacing with peripherals, sensors, and external components.
- Package & Mounting 256‑LBGA package (supplier device package: 256‑FTBGA, 17×17) in a surface‑mount form factor to minimize board footprint.
- Power Defined core supply range of 1.14 V to 1.26 V to match system power delivery requirements.
- Operating Range Commercial grade operation from 0 °C to 85 °C for general commercial electronics environments.
- Compliance RoHS compliant, supporting lead‑free assembly and regulatory requirements for many commercial products.
Typical Applications
- Commercial Embedded Systems Programmable logic and on‑chip memory enable custom control and processing functions in compact embedded products.
- Interface Bridging With 186 I/Os, the device can consolidate multiple peripheral interfaces and translate between logic domains on a single chip.
