Product details
Overview
XC4003E-4PQ100C from Xilinx is a 3,000-gate Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) in a 100-pin Plastic Quad Flat Package (PQFP), featuring 83 user I/O pins, 3.3 V I/O support, and -4 speed grade (4.5 ns CLB propagation delay). It targets low-complexity digital logic replacement in industrial control and legacy system upgrades.
For engineers reviewing the XC4003E-4PQ100C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include gate count, I/O count, speed grade, package footprint compatibility, and 3.3 V interface compliance for drop-in replacement of older 74-series or PAL-based logic.
Technical Context
The XC4003E-4PQ100C implements configurable logic blocks (CLBs) with look-up table (LUT)-based combinatorial logic and flip-flop-based sequential elements. Each CLB supports two function generators and one carry chain for arithmetic operations.
It uses SRAM-based configuration memory, requiring external PROM or processor-based initialization at power-up. Configuration bitstream loading occurs via JTAG boundary-scan (IEEE 1149.1) or master serial mode using an external PROM.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Gates | 3,000 usable gates - defines maximum combinational logic capacity for small-state-machine or glue-logic replacement |
| User I/O Pins | 83 - supports medium-density peripheral interfacing without external bus buffers |
| Speed Grade | -4 (4.5 ns CLB tPD) - enables 150 MHz maximum clock frequency in register-to-register paths |
| I/O Voltage | 3.3 V - compatible with LVTTL and LVCMOS33 signaling, not 5 V tolerant |
| Package | PQFP-100 (20 × 20 mm, 0.65 mm pitch) - surface-mount, reflow-compatible footprint with standard PCB assembly |
| Configuration Mode | Master Serial or JTAG - allows in-system programming and field updates without socketed PROM |
Pinout & Package
XC4003E-4PQ100C is housed in a 100-lead Plastic Quad Flat Package (PQFP) with 25 leads per side, 0.65 mm lead pitch, and 20 mm × 20 mm body size. Pin 1 is marked by a corner notch or dot.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCCINT (Pins 26, 51, 76) | Core supply | Provides 5.0 V to internal logic; requires local 0.1 µF decoupling per pin |
| VCCO (Pins 13, 38, 63, 88) | I/O supply | Supplies 3.3 V to output drivers; separate from core voltage for mixed-voltage operation |
| GND (Pins 25, 50, 75, 100) | Ground reference | Dedicated ground pins per quadrant reduce switching noise coupling between I/O banks |
| TCK/TMS/TDI/TDO | JTAG interface | Enables IEEE 1149.1 boundary-scan testing and in-system configuration without dedicated programming hardware |
| PROGRAM | Configuration reset | Active-low signal that clears configuration memory and initiates reload from PROM or JTAG |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| SRAM-based configuration | Allows full reprogrammability in-system, supporting design iteration and field updates without component replacement |
| 83-user I/O with 3.3 V support | Eliminates level-shifting components when interfacing with modern microcontrollers and FPGAs operating at 3.3 V |
| Carry chain in CLBs | Enables efficient implementation of adders, counters, and comparators without consuming additional LUT resources |
| JTAG boundary-scan | Supports IEEE 1149.1-compliant board-level test and debug, reducing production test development time |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FPGA logic replacement applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| XCV300-4PQ240C | 300,000-gate Virtex device in 240-pin PQFP; 3.3 V I/O, but 5 V-tolerant inputs | Targets high-complexity designs requiring embedded RAM and DLLs; overqualified for simple glue logic | Select only if future scalability beyond 3K gates or DLL-based clock deskew is required |
| XC95144-10PQ100C | CPLD with 144 macrocells, 10 ns pin-to-pin delay, same PQFP-100 package | Better suited for registered logic and wide-decoder functions; lacks CLB-based arithmetic carry chains | Prefer for pure control-path logic with minimal arithmetic; avoid when adder/counter density exceeds CPLD capacity |
Compared with XC4003E-4PQ100C, the XCV300-4PQ240C offers vastly higher density and advanced features at cost and complexity penalties, while the XC95144-10PQ100C provides faster pin-to-pin timing and simpler architecture but no carry-chain arithmetic acceleration.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by XC4003E-4PQ100C?
The XC4003E-4PQ100C has a -4 speed grade with 4.5 ns CLB propagation delay, enabling up to 150 MHz register-to-register clock frequencies in typical routing conditions. Actual system frequency depends on logic depth, routing congestion, and I/O timing constraints-not guaranteed beyond datasheet-specified paths.
Does XC4003E-4PQ100C support in-system programming?
Yes, XC4003E-4PQ100C supports in-system programming via its IEEE 1149.1 JTAG interface (TCK/TMS/TDI/TDO pins) or master serial mode using an external PROM. No socketed programming hardware is required, enabling field updates and configuration revision control.
Can XC4003E-4PQ100C operate with 5 V I/O signals?
No, XC4003E-4PQ100C supports only 3.3 V I/O signaling (VCCO = 3.3 V) and is not 5 V tolerant. Connecting 5 V signals directly risks damaging I/O buffers. Level-shifting circuitry is required for interfacing with 5 V peripherals.
What configuration memory is required for XC4003E-4PQ100C?
XC4003E-4PQ100C requires external non-volatile configuration memory, such as Xilinx XC18V02 or compatible 2 Mbit serial PROMs, to store the bitstream. The FPGA loads configuration data on power-up in master serial mode or via JTAG during programming.
Is XC4003E-4PQ100C pin-compatible with other XC4000E family members?
XC4003E-4PQ100C shares the PQFP-100 package with other XC4000E devices like XC4004E-4PQ100C and XC4005E-4PQ100C, but pinouts differ due to varying I/O counts and CLB arrangements. Direct replacement is not possible without PCB redesign-even within the same package variant.
