Product details
Overview
XC3S1400A-4FGG676I from AMD (formerly Xilinx) is a Spartan-3A FPGA featuring 1,400,000 system gates, 216 I/O pins, and a -4 speed grade with industrial temperature range (-40°C to +100°C). It integrates 128 embedded 18×18 multipliers, 128 Kbits of block RAM, and supports SelectIO standards including LVCMOS, LVTTL, and SSTL.
For engineers reviewing the XC3S1400A-4FGG676I datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection considerations include I/O count, embedded multiplier density, block RAM capacity, and industrial-grade thermal performance for reconfigurable logic in space-constrained embedded control systems.
Technical Context
The XC3S1400A-4FGG676I implements a fine-grained, SRAM-based configurable logic architecture with 11,648 configurable logic blocks (CLBs), each containing two slices with four LUTs and eight flip-flops. It supports distributed RAM and shift register functionality within CLBs.
Configuration is performed via Master Serial or JTAG mode using external PROM or processor-controlled interface. The device includes Digital Clock Managers (DCMs) supporting frequency synthesis, phase shifting, and duty cycle correction across up to 16 clock outputs per DCM.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Cells | 11,648 CLBs - provides scalable combinational and sequential logic density for mid-range digital signal processing and protocol bridging. |
| System Gates | 1.4M - indicates gate-equivalent capacity for ASIC-style logic mapping and RTL synthesis targeting. |
| I/O Pins | 216 user-configurable I/O - enables high-pin-count interface consolidation (e.g., parallel bus, camera sensor, memory controller). |
| Block RAM | 128 Kbits - supports dual-port FIFOs, coefficient storage, or small on-chip buffers without external memory. |
| Embedded Multipliers | 128 × 18×18-bit - accelerates fixed-point arithmetic in motor control, filter design, and real-time encoding. |
| Speed Grade | -4 - guarantees timing closure at 450 MHz internal clocking with worst-case industrial temperature derating. |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +100°C - validated for deployment in industrial automation, outdoor communications, and transportation electronics. |
Pinout & Package
XC3S1400A-4FGG676I is housed in a 676-ball Fine-Pitch Ball Grid Array (FBGA) package with 1.0 mm ball pitch and 27×27 array configuration. The package supports standard PCB assembly processes and provides thermal dissipation suitable for sustained 1.2 V core operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCCINT | Core power supply | 1.2 V ±3% required for FPGA fabric and CLB operation; decoupling critical for signal integrity. |
| VCCO_0–VCCO_6 | I/O bank power | 1.2–3.3 V selectable per bank; enables mixed-voltage interface support (e.g., 3.3 V PCIe sideband + 1.8 V memory). |
| PROGRAM_B | Active-low configuration initiator | Pulls low to reset configuration state and initiate reload from external PROM or host processor. |
| DONE | Configuration status indicator | Open-drain output asserted high when bitstream loading completes and device enters user mode. |
| CCLK | Configuration clock input | Drives serial bitstream loading; may be driven externally or generated internally by DCM for self-booting designs. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Digital Clock Manager (DCM) | Two DCMs per device provide jitter-reduced clock synthesis, phase alignment, and dynamic frequency scaling without external PLL components. |
| SelectIO Technology | Supports 19 I/O standards including LVDS, RSDS, and HSTL - enables direct interfacing to ADCs, FPD-Link, and DDR SDRAM without level-shifting ICs. |
| MultiBoot Configuration | Allows up to four independent bitstreams stored in external SPI PROM; enables field-upgradable firmware and fail-safe fallback modes. |
| Power-On Reset (POR) | Internal circuit ensures reliable initialization sequence and prevents metastability during voltage ramp-up across all supply domains. |

Use Value: 216 I/O pins support 64-channel digital input + 32-channel analog input + dual Ethernet MAC interfaces on single device. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FPGA-based logic implementation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| XC3S1000-4FGG456C | 1.0M gates, 456-ball FBGA, commercial temp (0°C to +85°C), 17,280 logic cells | Limited I/O (195 pins) and no industrial temp rating; lower multiplier count (96) | Choose for cost-sensitive, non-industrial applications where board space and thermal margin allow smaller package. |
| XC3S1600E-4FGG484I | 1.6M gates, 484-ball FBGA, industrial temp, 15,888 logic cells, 144 multipliers | Higher gate count but fewer I/O pins (252 vs. 216) and larger footprint; lacks MultiBoot support | Prefer when additional logic resources are needed over I/O flexibility, and single-bitstream configuration suffices. |
Compared with XC3S1400A-4FGG676I, the XC3S1000-4FGG456C trades industrial reliability and I/O count for lower cost and smaller footprint, while the XC3S1600E-4FGG484I increases logic density at the expense of configuration flexibility and I/O scalability - making XC3S1400A-4FGG676I optimal for balanced industrial I/O + processing workloads.

The JTAG interface remains active regardless of configuration state, enabling verification of solder joints and interconnects before and after bitstream loading for the XC3S1400A-4FGG676I.
Can the XC3S1400A-4FGG676I configure itself from SPI flash without an external controller?
Yes, the XC3S1400A-4FGG676I supports Master Serial mode, allowing autonomous configuration from industry-standard SPI serial PROMs (e.g., XCFxxP series). In this mode, the XC3S1400A-4FGG676I generates its own CCLK and drives the PROM's address lines, eliminating need for microcontroller intervention during power-up.
How many Digital Clock Managers (DCMs) does the XC3S1400A-4FGG676I contain?
The XC3S1400A-4FGG676I contains two Digital Clock Managers (DCMs). Each DCM provides independent clock synthesis, phase shifting, frequency multiplication/division, and duty cycle correction. These DCMs are essential for synchronizing multiple I/O banks and internal logic domains in complex timing-critical applications using the XC3S1400A-4FGG676I.
Is the XC3S1400A-4FGG676I RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the XC3S1400A-4FGG676I is manufactured in a lead-free, RoHS-compliant process.
