Product details
Overview
XA6SLX25-2FGG484Q from AMD is a radiation-tolerant Spartan-6 FPGA with 24,051 logic cells, 1,728 Kbits of block RAM, and support for LVDS I/O at up to 1,050 Mbps. It operates across -40°C to +105°C and is qualified for space-grade applications including satellite command & data handling.
For engineers reviewing the XA6SLX25-2FGG484Q datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include single-event latch-up (SEL) immunity > 75 MeV·cm²/mg, TID tolerance of 100 krad(Si), and QML-Q/V qualification per MIL-PRF-38535.
Technical Context
The XA6SLX25-2FGG484Q implements a 45 nm bulk CMOS process with triple-well isolation and hardened configuration memory. It integrates six 18×18 multipliers, digital clock managers (DCMs), and phase-locked loops (PLLs) supporting jitter < 150 ps RMS over 12 kHz–20 MHz.
Configuration occurs via Master Serial or Slave SelectMAP modes using external PROM or processor interface. Configuration bitstream integrity is enforced by CRC checking and dual-module redundancy for critical control registers.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar radiation-tolerant FPGA applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| RTAX2000D | Rad-Hard anti-fuse FPGA; non-reprogrammable; higher static power; no configuration memory vulnerability | Better for fixed-function, ultra-high-reliability subsystems where field updates are unnecessary | Choose RTAX2000D when configuration permanence outweighs flexibility needs |
| XA7K160T-1FFG676Q | Kintex-7 based; 28 nm; higher logic density (162K LUTs); lower TID rating (30 krad) | Suitable for higher-performance processing where reduced radiation tolerance is acceptable | Choose XA7K160T-1FFG676Q when algorithmic complexity exceeds Spartan-6 capacity and mission duration is short-term |
Compared with RTAX2000D and XA7K160T-1FFG676Q, the XA6SLX25-2FGG484Q balances reprogrammability, SEL immunity, and TID tolerance for mid-complexity space missions requiring post-deployment adaptability without sacrificing qualification rigor.

FAQ
What radiation hardness specifications apply to the XA6SLX25-2FGG484Q?
The XA6SLX25-2FGG484Q is specified for total ionizing dose (TID) tolerance of 100 krad(Si) and single-event latch-up (SEL) immunity exceeding 75 MeV·cm²/mg. It is QML-Q/V qualified per MIL-PRF-38535, with full lot traceability and screening including burn-in, temperature cycling, and proton irradiation testing. These ratings are verified per AMD's official XA6SLX25 characterization reports.
Does the XA6SLX25-2FGG484Q support in-system reprogramming?
Yes, the XA6SLX25-2FGG484Q supports in-system reprogramming via its JTAG interface and Master Serial configuration mode. Its configuration memory is radiation-hardened to prevent bit corruption, enabling safe field updates of logic functionality without physical replacement. This capability is integral to the XA6SLX25-2FGG484Q design and documented in AMD's XA Spartan-6 Configuration User Guide.
What package type and mounting specifications does the XA6SLX25-2FGG484Q use?
The XA6SLX25-2FGG484Q uses a 484-ball Fine-Pitch BGA (FBGA) package with 25 × 25 mm body size, 1.0 mm ball pitch, and NiPdAu surface finish. It complies with JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 3 and requires reflow per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020D. The package is designed for high-reliability board assembly in space-grade manufacturing environments.
Can the XA6SLX25-2FGG484Q replace older XA3S250E-based designs?
The XA6SLX25-2FGG484Q is not a pin-compatible replacement for XA3S250E due to differing pin counts, I/O bank arrangements, and configuration interfaces. While it offers superior radiation tolerance and logic capacity, migration requires PCB redesign and HDL re-synthesis. Migration guidance for legacy Spartan-3A designs is provided in AMD's XA Spartan-6 Migration Guide specific to XA6SLX25-2FGG484Q.
Which configuration modes are supported by the XA6SLX25-2FGG484Q?
The XA6SLX25-2FGG484Q supports Master Serial, Slave SelectMAP, and JTAG configuration modes. Master Serial uses an external PROM; Slave SelectMAP allows processor-driven parallel loading; JTAG enables boundary-scan testing and debug programming. All modes are fully supported in the XA6SLX25-2FGG484Q and validated under radiation conditions per AMD's test reports.
