Product details
Overview
XC2S200-5PQG208C from AMD (formerly Xilinx) is a Spartan-II family FPGA with 200,000 system gates, 1176 logic cells, 112 I/O pins, and 5 ns CLB propagation delay. It integrates configurable logic blocks, distributed RAM, and dedicated carry logic for high-speed arithmetic, deployed in industrial control logic and legacy interface bridging.
For engineers reviewing the XC2S200-5PQG208C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection factors include I/O count, CLB delay, system gate density, internal RAM capacity, and PQFP-208 package compatibility with legacy PCB footprints.
Technical Context
The XC2S200-5PQG208C implements a fine-grained architecture with 1176 configurable logic blocks (CLBs), each containing two 4-input LUTs and flip-flops. It supports LVCMOS/LVTTL I/O standards with programmable slew rate and drive strength per bank.
It includes 96 kbits of total block RAM (distributed across CLBs), no embedded multipliers, and relies on external configuration PROMs via Master Serial or SelectMAP mode. Configuration bitstream is SRAM-based and requires reinitialization at power-up.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| System Gates | 200,000 - indicates combinational logic capacity comparable to ~200k ASIC gates |
| Logic Cells | 1176 CLBs - each provides dual 4-LUT + FF, defining core programmable fabric density |
| I/O Pins | 112 user I/O - supports multi-bank voltage operation (3.3V/2.5V) with per-bank VCCO |
| CLB Propagation Delay | 5 ns - maximum path delay through one CLB, critical for synchronous timing closure |
| Total RAM | 96 kbits distributed RAM - usable as shift registers, FIFOs, or small lookup tables |
| Package | PQFP-208 - 28×28 mm body, 0.5 mm pitch, leaded plastic quad flat pack |
| Configuration Mode | Master Serial / SelectMAP - requires external PROM or processor-controlled parallel loading |
Pinout & Package
PQFP-208 package: 208-pin plastic quad flat pack with gull-wing leads, 28 mm × 28 mm body size, 0.5 mm lead pitch, and exposed thermal pad not present (non-PowerQuad variant).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GCK0–GCK3 | Global Clock Input | Dedicated low-skew routing to all CLBs; essential for synchronous system clocking |
| PROGRAM_B | Configuration Initiate | Active-low signal that resets configuration logic and clears SRAM contents |
| DIN | Serial Data In | Primary serial configuration data input for Master Serial mode |
| INIT_B | Configuration Status | Open-drain output indicating successful bitstream loading or CRC error |
| HSWAP_EN | Hot-Swap Enable | Enables weak pull-up on I/O during power-up before configuration completes |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Configurable Logic Blocks (CLBs) | 1176 units with dual 4-LUTs + FF per CLB enable flexible state machine and datapath implementation |
| Distributed RAM | 96 kbits embedded across CLBs support register files and small buffers without external memory |
| I/O Bank Independence | Four I/O banks allow mixed 3.3V and 2.5V signaling on same device for legacy interface coexistence |
| Global Clock Networks | Four dedicated low-jitter global clock lines reduce skew across large logic regions |
| Configuration Security | No built-in bitstream encryption; external PROM must be secured separately if required |

FAQ
What is the configuration method supported by XC2S200-5PQG208C?
The XC2S200-5PQG208C supports Master Serial and SelectMAP configuration modes. It requires an external PROM or microcontroller to load the bitstream at power-up, as its SRAM-based configuration is volatile. The XC2S200-5PQG208C does not include on-chip flash or encryption, so external secure storage must be implemented separately if needed.
Does XC2S200-5PQG208C support mixed-voltage I/O operation?
Yes, the XC2S200-5PQG208C supports mixed-voltage I/O through four independent I/O banks. Each bank has its own VCCO supply, enabling concurrent 3.3V and 2.5V signaling. This allows the XC2S200-5PQG208C to interface directly with legacy 5V-tolerant peripherals when used with appropriate termination and level-shifting circuitry.
What is the maximum operating frequency achievable with XC2S200-5PQG208C?
The XC2S200-5PQG208C has a 5 ns CLB propagation delay, supporting system clock frequencies up to approximately 125 MHz for fully registered paths. Actual maximum frequency depends on design topology, routing congestion, and I/O timing constraints. The XC2S200-5PQG208C lacks dedicated PLLs, so clock multiplication requires external oscillators or digital clock managers with limited jitter performance.
Is XC2S200-5PQG208C RoHS compliant?
The XC2S200-5PQG208C is available in both RoHS-compliant (PQG suffix) and non-RoHS (PQ suffix) variants. The "G" in PQG208 explicitly denotes lead-free, halogen-free packaging meeting JEDEC J-STD-609A Class 2 requirements. Always verify the full part marking and date code against AMD's official product change notices for compliance status.
Can XC2S200-5PQG208C be used in new designs today?
While the XC2S200-5PQG208C remains available through authorized channels and long-term supply programs, it is a mature Spartan-II device introduced in 1999. New designs should evaluate Spartan-6 or Artix-7 alternatives for improved power efficiency, integrated features, and ongoing tool support. However, the XC2S200-5PQG208C is still viable for legacy refresh, repair, or form-fit-function replacement where backward compatibility is mandatory.
