Product details
Overview
XC2S200E-6PQ208C from Xilinx is a second-generation Spartan-IIE Field-Programmable Gate Array with 5,292 logic cells, 289 user I/Os, and four Delay-Locked Loops (DLLs), operating at 1.8V core voltage and supporting 19 I/O standards including LVTTL, LVCMOS, SSTL, and LVDS. It delivers up to 200 MHz system performance and integrates 75,264 bits of distributed RAM and 56 Kbits of true dual-port block RAM for embedded control, interface bridging, and real-time signal processing in industrial and communications equipment.
For engineers reviewing the XC2S200E-6PQ208C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its PQ208 package footprint, -6 speed grade timing (tPD ≤ 4.5 ns CLB-to-CLB), DLL-based clock multiplication/phase alignment, hot-swap I/O capability, and compatibility with Xilinx ISE 6.x–10.x toolchain for logic synthesis and place-and-route.
Technical Context
The XC2S200E-6PQ208C implements a regular array of Configurable Logic Blocks (CLBs), each containing four logic cells with 4-input LUTs, dedicated carry chains, and dual flip-flops per slice. Its architecture supports synchronous distributed RAM (16×1, 16×2, 32×1) and configurable 4K-bit true dual-port block RAM.
It features four corner-placed DLLs enabling zero-delay clock distribution, ±150 ps phase shift resolution, and multiplication/division ratios from 2× to 16×. I/O banks are electrically isolated with independent VCCO and VREF per bank, supporting mixed-voltage operation (1.5V/1.8V/2.5V/3.3V) and IEEE 1149.1 boundary scan.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Cells | 5,292 - defines maximum combinational logic capacity and register count for RTL implementation |
| User I/O Pins | 289 - supports high-pin-count interfaces such as PCI, DDR memory, and parallel buses |
| Block RAM | 56 Kbits - provides on-chip dual-port memory for FIFOs, buffers, or lookup tables without external SRAM |
| DLLs | 4 - enables precise clock deskew, jitter reduction, and domain crossing across large designs |
| Speed Grade | -6 - guarantees tPD ≤ 4.5 ns CLB-to-CLB delay and fMAX ≥ 200 MHz under worst-case conditions |
| I/O Standards | 19 - includes LVTTL, LVCMOS2/18, SSTL2/3, HSTL, LVDS, and PCI - allows direct interfacing to diverse peripherals |
| Core Voltage | 1.8 V - reduces dynamic power vs. 2.5V Spartan-II, enabling lower thermal design power in dense layouts |
Pinout & Package
XC2S200E-6PQ208C uses a 208-pin Plastic Quad Flat Package (PQFP) with 289 total user I/Os mapped across eight I/O banks. Pin assignments follow Xilinx DS077-4 module; all pins are electrically defined and validated per official pinout tables.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FPGA logic and I/O applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| XC2S200-6PQ208C | No hot-swap I/O support; lacks DLL enhancements and some I/O standard options | Not suitable for CompactPCI or live-insertion systems requiring robust power sequencing | Select only if legacy Spartan-II compatibility and lower cost outweigh hot-swap and enhanced clocking needs |
| XCV300E-6PQ240C | Virtex-E family; higher density (300K gates), 2.5V core, more block RAM (288 Kbits), but larger PQ240 package | Overkill for cost-sensitive volume applications; requires different PCB layout and power delivery | Choose when >200 MHz sustained clocking, larger memory, or advanced DSP blocks justify increased BOM and layout cost |
Compared with XC2S200-6PQ208C, the XC2S200E-6PQ208C adds hot-swap safety and tighter DLL control; versus XCV300E-6PQ240C, it trades density and memory for lower cost, smaller footprint, and simpler power design - making it optimal for mid-range industrial controllers where I/O flexibility and reliability are prioritized over raw capacity.
