Product details
Overview
XC3190-4PQ160C from Xilinx is a high-density, high-performance Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) with 6,000 logic gates, 320 Configurable Logic Blocks (CLBs) in a 16 × 20 array, and 144 user I/Os. It supports system clock speeds over 85 MHz, features TTL/CMOS input thresholds, on-chip crystal oscillator amplifier, and internal 3-state bus capability - deployed in legacy telecom interface logic and industrial control subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the XC3190-4PQ160C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include guaranteed 370 MHz flip-flop toggle rate, 1.55–4.1 ns logic delay range, PQ160 ceramic package compatibility, and bitstream/software compatibility with XC3000A/L and XC3100L families.
Technical Context
The XC3190-4PQ160C implements a static CMOS-based FPGA architecture with distributed configuration memory cells controlling IOBs, CLBs, and interconnect resources. Its CLBs contain dual flip-flops, five-input look-up tables (LUTs), programmable clock polarity, and asynchronous reset - enabling synchronous logic synthesis with predictable timing.
Interconnect includes general-purpose metal grids, direct CLB-to-CLB paths, and horizontal longlines with TBUF access. Configuration is loaded serially or byte-parallel via external PROM (e.g., XC17XX series), with soft startup slew-rate limiting applied to all outputs at power-up to suppress ground bounce.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FPGA logic implementation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| XC3190A-4PQ160C | Same gate count, CLB count, and pinout; differs only in speed grade suffix - 'A' denotes same -4 speed bin but belongs to XC3100A family with identical 370 MHz toggle rating | No functional difference; used interchangeably in designs targeting XC3100A family toolchain support | Select XC3190A-4PQ160C when sourcing from distributors listing XC3100A-family stock; identical electrical and timing behavior |
| XC3090A-4PQ160C | Lower density (6,000 gates vs. 6,000), same PQ160 package, but XC3000A family - 190 MHz max toggle rate, 4.1 ns worst-case logic delay | Suitable for less demanding timing budgets; lacks XC3100A-specific features like enhanced TBUF interconnect and soft startup | Choose XC3090A-4PQ160C only if existing design uses XC3000A toolflow and does not require >250 MHz register performance |
Compared with XC3190-4PQ160C, XC3190A-4PQ160C offers identical functionality and timing, while XC3090A-4PQ160C trades 370 MHz toggle capability and soft startup for broader legacy toolchain support - making XC3190-4PQ160C optimal for new implementations requiring maximum speed and noise immunity.

FAQ
What is the maximum guaranteed flip-flop toggle rate for XC3190-4PQ160C?
The XC3190-4PQ160C guarantees a flip-flop toggle rate of up to 370 MHz, as specified in the November 1998 XC3000 Series documentation. This value reflects the highest reliable register-to-register switching frequency under worst-case voltage and temperature conditions, and is directly tied to its -4 speed grade designation. The XC3190-4PQ160C achieves this using an advanced CMOS process and optimized CLB routing.
Is XC3190-4PQ160C pin-compatible with XC3090A-4PQ160C?
Yes, XC3190-4PQ160C is 100% pin-out compatible with XC3090A-4PQ160C and other members of the XC3000/XC3100 families sharing the PQ160 package. All share identical mechanical footprint, power/ground pin assignments, and I/O pin numbering. However, XC3190-4PQ160C requires XC3100A-family configuration bitstreams and software support.
Does XC3190-4PQ160C support in-system reprogramming?
Yes, XC3190-4PQ160C supports in-system reprogramming via its standard configuration interface. The device accepts serial or byte-parallel configuration data from external PROMs (e.g., XC17XX series) or host processors, enabling logic updates without physical replacement. This capability is enabled by its static configuration memory architecture and PROGRAM/INIT control signals.
What voltage supply does XC3190-4PQ160C require?
XC3190-4PQ160C operates from a single +5 V nominal supply, with tolerance specified for commercial temperature range operation. It is not a low-voltage part - unlike XC3190L variants, it does not support 3.3 V operation. Power integrity must be maintained within ±5% of 5 V, with local decoupling capacitors placed near each VCC/GND pin pair.
How many configuration bits does XC3190-4PQ160C require?
XC3190-4PQ160C requires 64,160 configuration bits to fully define its logic functions, interconnect, and I/O settings. This value is documented in the XC3000 Series Product Description table and corresponds to the internal static memory cell count used for CLB, IOB, and interconnect programming. Bitstream length is fixed for this device variant.
