Product details
Overview
XC3064A-7PQ160C from AMD is a Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) featuring 64 configurable logic blocks (CLBs), 160-pin plastic quad flat pack (PQFP) package, -7 speed grade (15 ns CLB delay), and commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C). It implements synchronous digital logic in embedded control and interface bridging applications.
For engineers reviewing the XC3064A-7PQ160C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection considerations include CLB count, I/O pin count (128 user I/Os), PQFP-160 mechanical compatibility, speed-grade timing closure, and legacy Xilinx 3000A family design migration support.
Technical Context
The XC3064A-7PQ160C belongs to AMD's (formerly Xilinx) early-generation 3000A FPGA family, built on 0.8 µm CMOS technology. It uses SRAM-based configuration memory, supports in-system reprogrammability via JTAG boundary-scan, and implements logic using look-up tables (LUTs) and flip-flops within each CLB.
Configuration is performed serially through dedicated pins (DIN, CCLK, PROG, INIT), with no internal configuration memory. The device requires external configuration PROM or processor-controlled loading and supports master/slave parallel mode for multi-device systems.
Key Specifications

| Logic Capacity | 64 CLBs - provides ~1,500 usable gates for medium-complexity glue logic replacement |
| User I/O Pins | 128 - supports wide parallel bus interfacing or multiple peripheral connections |
| Speed Grade | -7 (15 ns CLB propagation delay) - enables operation up to ~65 MHz system clock in typical routing |
| Package | PQFP-160 - 28 × 28 mm body, 0.65 mm lead pitch, surface-mount compatible with standard reflow profiles |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to +70°C - qualified for commercial-grade PCB environments without extended thermal management |
| Voltage Supply | 5.0 V ± 5% - requires single-rail TTL-compatible power, no auxiliary voltage rails needed |
Pinout & Package

| PROG | Configuration Initiate | Active-low signal that resets configuration memory and prepares device for reload |
| INIT | Configuration Status | Open-drain output indicating configuration success/failure; pulled high externally |
| GCLK1–GCLK4 | Global Clock Inputs | Dedicated low-skew paths to all CLBs; support synchronous design timing closure |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| XC3064A-7PC84C | 84-pin PLCC package; 64 CLBs; same -7 speed grade but only 69 user I/Os | Limited I/O count restricts use in wide-bus or multi-peripheral designs | Select when board space or socket-based prototyping favors PLCC over PQFP |
| XC3042A-7PQ160C | 42 CLBs instead of 64; identical PQFP-160 package and -7 speed grade | Lower logic density reduces gate count by ~34%, limiting complex state-machine depth | Choose for cost-sensitive designs where 42 CLBs satisfy functional requirements |
Compared with XC3064A-7PQ160C, the XC3064A-7PC84C trades I/O scalability for socket compatibility, while the XC3042A-7PQ160C retains mechanical fit but reduces logic capacity-both require layout or timing revalidation.

FAQ
What is the configuration method supported by XC3064A-7PQ160C?
The XC3064A-7PQ160C supports serial master-mode configuration via DIN and CCLK pins, or parallel master/slave mode using 8- or 16-bit data buses. It does not contain on-chip configuration memory and requires external PROM or microcontroller-driven initialization. Configuration occurs on power-up or after asserting PROG, and INIT confirms completion.
Does XC3064A-7PQ160C support JTAG programming?
Yes, XC3064A-7PQ160C implements IEEE 1149.1 JTAG boundary-scan for testing and in-system programming. TDI, TDO, TMS, and TCK pins enable configuration bitstream loading and device-level diagnostics without requiring dedicated programming hardware beyond standard JTAG adapters.
What is the maximum operating frequency achievable with XC3064A-7PQ160C?
The XC3064A-7PQ160C has a -7 speed grade specifying 15 ns CLB propagation delay. In typical designs with moderate routing congestion, this supports system clock frequencies up to approximately 65 MHz. Actual maximum frequency depends on logic depth, register placement, and I/O timing constraints-not guaranteed beyond datasheet timing models.
Is XC3064A-7PQ160C RoHS compliant?
No, XC3064A-7PQ160C was manufactured prior to RoHS Directive enforcement and contains leaded solder in its PQFP-160 package. It is classified as a legacy non-RoHS component; design-in requires exemption documentation per applicable regulatory frameworks.
Can XC3064A-7PQ160C be used in automotive applications?
No, XC3064A-7PQ160C is rated for commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C) and lacks AEC-Q100 qualification. Its specification and reliability data do not meet automotive environmental or lifetime requirements; it is intended for industrial and medical equipment where ambient conditions remain within commercial limits.
