Product details
Overview
XC2S150-5PQG208I from AMD (formerly Xilinx) is a Spartan-II family FPGA with 150,000 system gates, 1728 logic cells, 112 I/O pins, and a 5 ns CLB delay. It features SelectRAM+ embedded memory blocks and supports LVCMOS/LVTTL I/O standards. It is used in industrial control logic and digital signal preprocessing.
For engineers reviewing the XC2S150-5PQG208I datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include CLB propagation delay, I/O voltage compatibility, embedded RAM capacity, and thermal performance in reflow-soldered PCB assemblies.
Technical Context
The XC2S150-5PQG208I implements configurable logic blocks (CLBs) with four-input LUTs and flip-flops, distributed RAM per CLB, and up to 144 Kbits of SelectRAM+ block RAM. Its global clock network supports up to four dedicated clock inputs with low-skew routing.
It operates at 3.3 V core and I/O supply, supports IEEE 1149.1 JTAG boundary-scan testing, and uses SRAM-based configuration loaded via serial or parallel PROM. Configuration bitstream integrity is verified through CRC checking.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Capacity | 150,000 system gates - defines maximum combinational logic density for gate-equivalent synthesis |
| CLB Delay | 5 ns - worst-case propagation delay through one CLB, constraining maximum synchronous frequency |
| I/O Pins | 112 user-configurable I/Os - supports multi-bus interfacing with bank-wise voltage assignment |
| Block RAM | 144 Kbits SelectRAM+ - enables on-chip FIFOs, coefficient storage, or state buffers without external memory |
| Supply Voltage | 3.3 V core and I/O - requires single-rail power delivery; no separate VCCINT/VCCO decoupling complexity |
| Configuration Mode | Master Serial, Slave Parallel, JTAG - determines boot source flexibility and programming interface options |
Pinout & Package

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GCK0–GCK3 | Global Clock Input | Dedicated low-skew clock routing to all CLBs; critical for timing-critical synchronous designs |
| PROGRAM_B | Configuration Initiate | Active-low asynchronous reset that clears configuration memory and initiates reload sequence |
| DONE | Configuration Status | Open-drain output indicating successful bitstream loading and initialization completion |
| TCK/TMS/TDI/TDO | JTAG Boundary-Scan | IEEE 1149.1 test access port for in-system programming and silicon validation |
| VCCO_0–VCCO_3 | I/O Bank Supply | Independent 3.3 V supplies per I/O bank enabling mixed-voltage interface support |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by XC2S150-5PQG208I?
The XC2S150-5PQG208I has a -5 speed grade specifying a 5 ns CLB propagation delay, enabling typical system clock frequencies up to 125 MHz for fully registered paths. Actual achievable frequency depends on design topology, routing congestion, and I/O timing constraints-not guaranteed beyond device characterization limits.
Does XC2S150-5PQG208I support hot-swap I/O operation?
No, XC2S150-5PQG208I does not support hot-swap I/O. Its I/O structures lack bus-hold, programmable slew rate, or powered-off protection circuitry. Power must be stable before asserting signals on any I/O pin to prevent latch-up or damage.
How is configuration data loaded into XC2S150-5PQG208I?
XC2S150-5PQG208I supports Master Serial (via on-chip oscillator), Slave Parallel (8-bit wide), and JTAG modes. Configuration bitstream is loaded into internal SRAM cells at power-up or upon PROGRAM_B assertion; no nonvolatile on-die storage is included.
What thermal considerations apply to XC2S150-5PQG208I in continuous operation?
XC2S150-5PQG208I has a maximum junction temperature of 100°C and requires PCB copper pour under the package for heat conduction. In still air, thermal resistance θJA is 36.5°C/W; forced airflow reduces effective θJA to ~22°C/W. Derating applies above 85°C ambient.
Is XC2S150-5PQG208I RoHS compliant?
Yes, XC2S150-5PQG208I is RoHS compliant per EU Directive 2011/65/EU. The PQG208 package uses lead-free solder plating and halogen-free molding compound, certified in Xilinx documentation DS002 v2.5 and later revisions.
