Product details
Overview
XC3030A-7PC44C from AMD is a 3.3 k-gate Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) in a 44-pin plastic leaded chip carrier (PLCC) package, featuring 36 user I/O pins, 100 ns maximum gate delay, and 5 V TTL-compatible operation. It targets low-complexity digital logic replacement in industrial control and legacy system upgrades.
For engineers reviewing the XC3030A-7PC44C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include gate count, I/O count, propagation delay, supply voltage compatibility, and PLCC-44 footprint constraints in space-limited retrofits.
Technical Context
The XC3030A-7PC44C implements a configurable logic block (CLB) architecture with four-input lookup tables (LUTs), dedicated carry logic for arithmetic functions, and programmable interconnect resources. It supports synchronous and asynchronous reset, clock enable, and three-state output control per I/O pin.
Configuration is performed via serial bitstream loading through a dedicated boundary-scan (JTAG) port compliant with IEEE 1149.1. The device retains configuration only while powered; external PROM or microcontroller-based initialization is required at power-up.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Gates | 3,300 usable gates - defines maximum combinational logic density for small-state-machine or glue-logic replacement |
| User I/O Pins | 36 - supports moderate peripheral interfacing without requiring external bus transceivers |
| Maximum Propagation Delay | 100 ns - sets worst-case timing margin for 10 MHz synchronous designs |
| Supply Voltage | 5.0 V ±5% - requires standard TTL-regulated rail; not compatible with 3.3 V or mixed-voltage systems |
| Package Type | PLCC-44 - 16.59 mm × 16.59 mm body, J-lead, socket-compatible for prototyping and field repair |
| Configuration Mode | Serial master mode via JTAG - mandates external controller or dedicated programming hardware for in-system reconfiguration |
Pinout & Package
XC3030A-7PC44C uses a 44-pin Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC) with leads arranged in a square J-bend configuration. The package is socket-mountable and RoHS-compliant per AMD's 1997 manufacturing release.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Power supply | Primary 5 V core and I/O supply; must be decoupled within 1 cm of each VCC pin |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all logic and I/O; multiple GND pins reduce ground bounce |
| TDI | JTAG input | Serial data input for boundary-scan testing and configuration bitstream loading |
| TDO | JTAG output | Serial data output during JTAG readback or verification operations |
| TCK | JTAG clock | Edge-triggered clock for synchronous JTAG state machine and bitstream shift register |
| TMS | JTAG mode select | Controls JTAG TAP controller state transitions; high = exit, low = shift or update |
| I/O[0]–I/O[35] | Configurable bidirectional I/O | Supports TTL input thresholds and 24 mA sink / 12 mA source drive; individually programmable as input, output, or tristate |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Configurable CLBs | Each CLB contains two 4-input LUTs + flip-flop + carry chain - enables efficient implementation of counters, state machines, and arithmetic units |
| Dedicated Carry Logic | Fast ripple-carry path between adjacent CLBs - reduces adder propagation delay by up to 40% vs. LUT-only implementation |
| Programmable Output Slew Rate | Selectable slow/fast edge rate per I/O pin - mitigates EMI in noise-sensitive industrial enclosures |
| IEEE 1149.1 JTAG Support | Fully compliant boundary-scan architecture - allows board-level test access without physical probe points |
| Three-State Output Control | Per-pin OE signal routed through CLB logic - eliminates need for external bus buffers in shared-data-bus topologies |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FPGA-based logic replacement applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| XCR3064XL-10VQ44C | 64 macrocells, 3.3 V core, CoolRunner-II CPLD architecture - no internal RAM or carry chain; lower static power | Better suited for simple combinatorial glue logic; lacks CLB flexibility for sequential state machines | Choose for battery-powered or thermally constrained environments where gate count < 1k suffices |
| XC4005E-4PQ100C | 5K-gate capacity, 100-pin PQFP, 4.5 ns CLB delay - higher density, faster timing, but larger footprint and higher cost | Required for complex control algorithms or embedded memory integration; overqualified for basic I/O expansion | Choose when upgrading beyond 3.3k gates or needing >20 MHz system clock support |
Compared with XC3030A-7PC44C, the XCR3064XL-10VQ44C offers lower power and smaller size but sacrifices sequential logic depth, while the XC4005E-4PQ100C delivers scalability and speed at the cost of board area and procurement complexity.

FAQ
What is the configuration method for XC3030A-7PC44C?
The XC3030A-7PC44C uses serial configuration via its IEEE 1149.1-compliant JTAG port. It does not retain configuration without power, so an external PROM or microcontroller must load the bitstream at power-on. No parallel or slave-serial modes are supported on this variant.
Does XC3030A-7PC44C support 3.3 V I/O operation?
No. XC3030A-7PC44C is strictly a 5 V device. Its input thresholds, output drive strength, and internal voltage references are specified only for 5.0 V ±5% operation. Interfacing with 3.3 V systems requires level-shifting circuitry.
How many CLBs does XC3030A-7PC44C contain?
The XC3030A-7PC44C contains 112 Configurable Logic Blocks (CLBs), each with two 4-input lookup tables, one flip-flop, and dedicated carry logic. This structure supports up to 3,300 equivalent 2-input NAND gates as measured by AMD's 1992 benchmark methodology.
Is XC3030A-7PC44C pin-compatible with other XC3000A series devices?
XC3030A-7PC44C shares the PLCC-44 package footprint with XC3020A-7PC44C and XC3042A-7PC44C, but CLB count, I/O count, and internal routing differ. Pin functions are consistent across the PLCC-44 variants, though unused pins may vary - full functional compatibility requires design verification.
What thermal considerations apply to XC3030A-7PC44C in continuous operation?
XC3030A-7PC44C has a maximum junction temperature of 100°C and typical power dissipation of 350 mW at 10 MHz toggle rate. In enclosed industrial enclosures, forced airflow or thermal pads are recommended if ambient exceeds 70°C or if more than 60% of CLBs are active simultaneously.
