Product details
Overview
XC2S30-6CS144C from AMD (formerly Xilinx) is a Spartan-II family FPGA with 30,000 system gates, 176 logic cells, and 144-pin CSOP (Ceramic Small Outline Package). It operates at 6 ns maximum input-to-output delay and supports 3.3 V I/O with 2.5 V core voltage. It is used in industrial control logic and low-cost digital signal preprocessing.
For engineers reviewing the XC2S30-6CS144C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection factors include gate count, I/O voltage compatibility, package thermal profile, configuration interface type, and supported synthesis toolchain.
Technical Context
The XC2S30-6CS144C implements configurable logic blocks (CLBs) with four-input LUTs and flip-flops, distributed RAM, and dedicated carry logic. It supports JTAG boundary-scan (IEEE 1149.1) and serial PROM-based configuration via the SelectMAP or slave serial mode.
It features 118 user I/O pins, global clock routing with four dedicated clock buffers, and internal tristate bus support. Configuration is performed through an external 8-bit parallel interface or 1-bit serial stream, with no on-chip nonvolatile memory.

Manufacturer
AMD acquired Xilinx in 2022 and now owns the Spartan FPGA portfolio. Xilinx originally developed the Spartan-II family for cost-sensitive, high-volume logic replacement applications.
The Spartan-II product line was designed for non-volatile logic emulation, glue logic replacement, and digital interface bridging in industrial and communications equipment where gate density and I/O flexibility outweigh advanced DSP or memory integration.
FAQ
What is the core voltage requirement for the XC2S30-6CS144C?
The XC2S30-6CS144C requires a regulated 2.5 V ± 0.1 V core supply (VCCINT). This voltage powers the internal logic array and CLBs. Using 3.3 V on VCCINT will damage the device. The I/O banks operate at 3.3 V (VCCO), requiring separate regulation from the core rail.
Does the XC2S30-6CS144C include on-chip configuration memory?
No, the XC2S30-6CS144C does not contain nonvolatile configuration memory. It loads its bitstream externally at power-up via JTAG, serial PROM, or parallel SelectMAP interface. Configuration must be reloaded after each power cycle unless an external PROM is used to store and auto-load the bitstream.
How many global clock inputs does the XC2S30-6CS144C support?
The XC2S30-6CS144C supports four dedicated global clock inputs (CLK0–CLK3), each driving a low-skew clock network across the entire device. These pins are physically located at P119–P122 and cannot be reassigned as general-purpose I/Os.
Can the XC2S30-6CS144C operate with 5 V tolerant I/Os?
No, the XC2S30-6CS144C is not 5 V tolerant. Its I/O pins are rated for 3.3 V LVTTL/LVCMOS operation only. Applying 5 V to any I/O pin may cause permanent damage. Level-shifting circuitry is required for interfacing with 5 V systems.
What configuration modes are supported by the XC2S30-6CS144C?
The XC2S30-6CS144C supports Master Serial, Slave Serial, and SelectMAP (8-bit parallel) configuration modes. Mode selection is controlled by M0–M2 pins at power-up. JTAG is always active for programming and debugging regardless of mode setting.
