XCS40-3PQ208C

The XCS40-3PQ208C is a Spartan® field programmable gate array (FPGA) from AMD offered in a 208-BFQFP surface-mount package. It delivers a compact, commercially graded programmable logic solution with a balance of logic capacity, on-chip memory and I/O count for a range of embedded digital designs.

With 1,862 logic elements, approximately 25 kbits of embedded RAM and 169 available I/O, this device is well suited for commercial applications that require flexible I/O connectivity and moderate logic and memory resources within a 5 V supply environment.

Key Features

• Core Logic  Approximately 1,862 logic elements and an estimated 40,000 gate equivalent count provide configurable resources for custom digital designs.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 25,088 bits of on-chip RAM support small block buffering, state machines and local data storage without external memory.
• I/O Capacity  169 user I/O pins enable connectivity to a wide range of peripherals, sensors and interfaces in I/O-dense applications.
• Power and Supply  Operates from a 4.75 V to 5.25 V supply range, compatible with common 5 V logic systems.
• Package and Mounting  208-BFQFP package (supplier package: 208-PQFP, 28 × 28) in a surface-mount form factor for PCB-mounted designs.
• Commercial Temperature Grade  Specified operating range of 0 °C to 85 °C for typical commercial-environment deployments.
• Regulatory Compliance  RoHS compliant for use in assemblies requiring lead-free component compliance.

Typical Applications

• Embedded digital systems  Use as a programmable logic backbone for compact embedded controllers and custom digital functions where moderate logic and memory are required.
• I/O-rich interface and glue logic  Leverage 169 I/O to implement protocol bridging, bus interfacing or peripheral aggregation in designs that require significant pin count.
• Rapid prototyping and proof-of-concept  Suitable for prototyping custom logic and validating system designs in commercial-temperature environments.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced resource set: Combines approximately 1,862 logic elements with on-chip RAM and ~40,000 gate equivalence to handle a variety of moderate-complexity designs.
• High I/O availability: 169 user I/O pins reduce the need for external I/O expanders and simplify board-level integration for multi-interface systems.
• Standard 5 V compatibility: 4.75 V to 5.25 V supply range aligns with common legacy and commercial logic power domains.
• Compact surface-mount package: 208-BFQFP (208-PQFP, 28×28) offers a dense pinout in a package suited for PCB-mounted applications.
• Commercial-grade readiness: Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C operation and RoHS compliant for straightforward integration into commercial product builds.
