Product details
Overview
XC3030A-7PQ100C from AMD is a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) featuring 3,000 usable gates, 100-pin plastic quad flatpack (PQFP) package, -7 speed grade (15 ns CLB propagation delay), and commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C). It implements synchronous logic in embedded control and interface bridging applications.
For engineers reviewing the XC3030A-7PQ100C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include gate count, I/O count, speed grade timing, PQFP thermal and routing constraints, and legacy 5 V CMOS compatibility.
Technical Context
The XC3030A-7PQ100C belongs to AMD's XC3000A FPGA family, built on 0.8 µm CMOS process with configurable logic blocks (CLBs), input/output blocks (IOBs), and programmable interconnect matrix. It supports SRAM-based configuration via serial or parallel mode.
Each CLB contains two 3-input lookup tables (LUTs), flip-flops with synchronous reset, and carry logic for arithmetic functions. IOBs provide programmable slew rate, pull-up resistors, and TTL/CMOS-compatible input thresholds.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gates | 3,000 usable gates - determines maximum combinational logic density for control state machines or glue logic replacement. |
| Speed Grade | -7 (15 ns CLB tPD) - defines worst-case propagation delay through a single CLB under commercial conditions. |
| Package | PQFP-100 - 100-lead plastic quad flatpack with 0.65 mm pitch; requires standard reflow profile and 0.3 mm solder mask clearance. |
| I/O Count | 84 user I/O pins - supports parallel bus interfacing, address/data multiplexing, or multi-signal sensor aggregation. |
| Voltage | 5.0 V ±10% - mandates 5 V supply rail design with decoupling per IOB bank and CLB cluster. |
| Temp Range | 0°C to +70°C - restricts use to non-extended industrial or commercial ambient environments. |
Pinout & Package
XC3030A-7PQ100C uses a 100-lead PQFP package with 24 pins per side, exposed pad not present, and JEDEC MS-026 compliant footprint. Pin numbering follows counter-clockwise sequence starting from top-left corner (Pin 1 marked with dot).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Power supply | 5 V core and I/O supply; requires local 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling per VCC pair. |
| GND | Ground reference | Signal and power return; must be connected to low-impedance ground plane with multiple vias. |
| PROGRAM | Configuration enable | Active-low signal initiating SRAM reload from external PROM or processor-controlled serial stream. |
| DIN | Serial configuration data | Serial bitstream input during master serial configuration mode; synchronous to CCLK. |
| CCLK | Configuration clock | Drives internal shift registers during configuration; frequency ≤ 25 MHz for reliable loading. |
| I/O[0..83] | Programmable bidirectional I/O | Configurable as input, output, or bidirectional with programmable pull-up and slew rate control. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| SRAM-based configuration | Enables in-system reprogramming without socket removal; requires external nonvolatile storage for power-up initialization. |
| Configurable I/O standards | Supports TTL and CMOS logic levels on all I/Os, simplifying integration with legacy microcontrollers and peripherals. |
| Carry chain logic | Optimizes adder, counter, and accumulator implementation with dedicated fast-carry path between CLBs. |
| Synchronous reset flip-flops | Ensures deterministic state initialization across all registers during system reset assertion. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FPGA logic replacement applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Xilinx XC3042-7PQ100C | 4,200 gates, identical PQFP-100 package and -7 speed grade; higher CLB count enables larger state machines. | Supports more complex control algorithms but requires updated place-and-route constraints and bitstream generation. | Select when additional logic density is needed without changing PCB layout or voltage rails. |
| AMD XC3030A-10PQ100C | Same 3,000-gate architecture but -10 speed grade (12 ns CLB tPD); slower timing margin than -7 grade. | Acceptable in lower-frequency control loops where 15 ns CLB delay meets setup/hold requirements. | Choose for cost-sensitive designs where timing slack allows relaxation from -7 to -10 grade. |
Compared with XC3030A-7PQ100C, XC3042-7PQ100C offers higher gate density within identical packaging and timing, whereas XC3030A-10PQ100C trades performance for cost while retaining full functional and pinout compatibility.

FAQ
What is the configuration method supported by XC3030A-7PQ100C?
The XC3030A-7PQ100C supports master serial, slave serial, and parallel programming modes. Configuration data is loaded into internal SRAM cells via DIN/CCLK or parallel data bus. External PROM or microcontroller-initiated reload is required for power-on initialization, as the device does not retain configuration without external nonvolatile storage.
Does XC3030A-7PQ100C support mixed-voltage I/O operation?
No. The XC3030A-7PQ100C operates exclusively at 5.0 V ±10% for both core logic and I/O circuits. It lacks separate VCCO rails or level-shifting circuitry, so all connected peripherals must comply with 5 V TTL/CMOS voltage thresholds.
What is the maximum operating frequency for logic implemented in XC3030A-7PQ100C?
The maximum system clock frequency achievable depends on design topology, but the -7 speed grade guarantees CLB propagation delay ≤15 ns. Typical registered performance ranges from 40–65 MHz for fully pipelined counters or state machines, verified using XACT 5.2 timing analysis tools.
Is XC3030A-7PQ100C RoHS compliant?
No. The XC3030A-7PQ100C was manufactured prior to RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC enforcement and contains leaded solder in its PQFP package. It is exempt from current RoHS compliance requirements under legacy component provisions for repair and obsolescence mitigation.
Can XC3030A-7PQ100C be reprogrammed in-system?
Yes. The XC3030A-7PQ100C supports in-system reprogramming via its PROGRAM, CCLK, and DIN pins. Reprogramming requires an external controller to deliver the correct bitstream format and adhere to timing specifications defined in the XC3000A family datasheet.
