Product details
Overview
XC2S30-5PQ208I from AMD (formerly Xilinx) is a Spartan-II family FPGA with 30,000 system gates, 176 user I/Os, and a 5 ns logic delay grade in a 208-pin PQFP package. It integrates configurable logic blocks, distributed RAM, and dedicated carry logic for arithmetic functions, used in industrial control logic and legacy interface bridging.
For engineers reviewing the XC2S30-5PQ208I datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include I/O count, speed grade, QFP packaging compatibility, and legacy Spartan-II toolchain support.
Technical Context
The XC2S30-5PQ208I implements a fine-grained architecture with 1,472 configurable logic blocks (CLBs), each containing two 4-input LUTs and associated flip-flops. It supports global clock routing, three dedicated clock buffers, and internal digital delay lines for basic timing control.
Configuration is performed via serial mode using an external PROM or master processor through the JTAG boundary-scan interface. It lacks on-chip configuration memory and requires external bitstream loading at power-up.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Capacity | 30,000 system gates - defines maximum combinational logic density for gate-equivalent design mapping |
| Speed Grade | -5 - guarantees 5 ns CLB propagation delay under specified conditions, enabling 160 MHz system clock operation |
| User I/O Pins | 176 - supports high-pin-count parallel bus interfaces such as ISA, PC/104, or custom backplane connections |
| Package | PQ208 - 208-pin plastic quad flat pack with 0.5 mm pitch, compatible with standard QFP reflow profiles |
| Configuration Mode | Serial Master/Slave or JTAG - determines boot method and programming flexibility in-system or during production |
| Distributed RAM | 176 kbits - available as 16-bit wide × 11,000 deep dual-port RAM per CLB for local data buffering |
Pinout & Package
PQ208 package: 28 × 28 mm body, 0.5 mm lead pitch, gull-wing leads, JEDEC MS-026 compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND | Power ground reference | Multiple dedicated pins provide low-inductance return paths for core and I/O banks |
| VCCINT | Core supply voltage | 2.5 V ± 5% required for internal logic; decoupling critical for signal integrity |
| VCCO | I/O bank supply | 3.3 V or 2.5 V selectable per bank; sets output swing and input threshold levels |
| PROGRAM_B | Active-low configuration initiator | Pulling low resets configuration logic and clears SRAM contents before reload |
| DONE | Configuration status indicator | Open-drain output goes high when bitstream loading completes successfully |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FPGA-based logic implementation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| XC2S30-6PQ208C | Faster -6 speed grade (4 ns CLB delay); commercial temperature range (0°C to 70°C) | Not rated for industrial (-40°C to 100°C) operation; unsuitable for extended-temperature environments | Choose only if timing margin is insufficient with -5 grade and ambient conditions remain within commercial range |
| XC2S50-5PQ208I | Higher density (50,000 gates); same speed grade and package | Increased resource count enables larger state machines or additional peripheral interfaces | Prefer when design requires >30K gates but must retain identical footprint and thermal profile |
Compared with XC2S30-5PQ208I, the XC2S30-6PQ208C offers tighter timing but sacrifices industrial temperature rating, while XC2S50-5PQ208I provides gate expansion without changing PCB layout or thermal management - both require re-synthesis and place-and-route validation.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for XC2S30-5PQ208I?
The XC2S30-5PQ208I is rated for industrial temperature operation from –40°C to +100°C. This range is validated per the original Xilinx Spartan-II specification and maintained under AMD's legacy product support policy. Thermal derating applies above 85°C ambient depending on power dissipation and board-level cooling.
Does XC2S30-5PQ208I include on-chip configuration memory?
No, the XC2S30-5PQ208I does not contain embedded configuration memory. It relies on external serial PROM or microprocessor-controlled loading via the JTAG port or slave serial mode. Configuration bitstream must be reloaded at every power-on cycle.
Can XC2S30-5PQ208I be programmed in-system using JTAG?
Yes, XC2S30-5PQ208I supports IEEE 1149.1 JTAG boundary-scan for in-system programming and debugging. The TDI, TDO, TMS, TCK, and TREN pins enable full configuration bitstream loading and device verification without removing the part from the board.
What I/O standards are supported by XC2S30-5PQ208I?
XC2S30-5PQ208I supports LVTTL, LVCMOS (2.5 V and 3.3 V), PCI, and SSTL-2 I/O standards. Each of its four I/O banks can be independently configured for voltage and standard, enabling mixed-signaling designs without level shifters.
Is XC2S30-5PQ208I still in production or available as legacy stock?
XC2S30-5PQ208I is no longer in active production but remains available through Aetrix Electronics' legacy component program with traceable, tested inventory. AMD continues to provide datasheets, application notes, and limited technical support for this device under its long-term support commitment.
