Product details
Overview
XC6SLX150-3FG900C from AMD (formerly Xilinx) is a Spartan-6 FPGA with 147,443 logic cells, 480 I/O pins, and a -3 speed grade supporting 1.2 GHz internal clocking. It integrates 4.9 Mbits of block RAM, 576 DSP48A1 slices, and operates at 1.2 V core voltage in commercial temperature range (0°C to 85°C). Used in industrial video processing and reconfigurable I/O bridging.
For engineers reviewing the XC6SLX150-3FG900C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include I/O count, block RAM depth, DSP slice availability, speed grade timing closure, and FG900 package thermal performance.
Technical Context
The XC6SLX150-3FG900C implements a fully programmable logic fabric based on 6-input LUTs and flip-flops, with dedicated carry logic for arithmetic. It supports SelectIO standards including LVCMOS, LVDS, and SSTL up to 1.0 Gbps per differential pair.
Configuration is performed via Master SPI, Slave Serial, or JTAG interfaces; startup time is 40–100 ms depending on mode and configuration source. Built-in DCI (Digitally Controlled Impedance) enables on-die termination for select I/O standards without external resistors.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported I/O standard voltage for XC6SLX150-3FG900C?
The XC6SLX150-3FG900C supports I/O voltages from 1.2 V to 3.3 V per bank, with individual banks configurable for LVCMOS12, LVCMOS15, LVCMOS18, LVCMOS25, LVCMOS33, and SSTL18. Each bank's VCCO must match the selected standard's nominal voltage, and DCI termination requires VCCO ≥ 1.5 V.
Does XC6SLX150-3FG900C support partial reconfiguration?
No, the XC6SLX150-3FG900C does not support partial reconfiguration. It uses a monolithic configuration architecture where the entire bitstream must be loaded to initialize or update logic. Dynamic reconfiguration requires external controller coordination and full reload cycles, unlike later 7-series FPGAs with dedicated ICAP interfaces.
What configuration modes are supported by XC6SLX150-3FG900C?
The XC6SLX150-3FG900C supports Master SPI, Slave Serial, JTAG, and Boundary Scan configuration modes. Master SPI uses an internal oscillator and CCLK to read bitstream from external SPI flash; Slave Serial relies on external clock; JTAG enables programming and debugging via standard IEEE 1149.1 interface.
Is XC6SLX150-3FG900C RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, XC6SLX150-3FG900C is RoHS-compliant and lead-free per EU Directive 2011/65/EU and IPC/JEDEC J-STD-609A Class 3. The FG900 package uses matte tin finish on solder balls, and the device meets halogen-free requirements per IEC 61249-2-21.
What is the recommended operating junction temperature range for XC6SLX150-3FG900C?
The XC6SLX150-3FG900C is rated for a junction temperature range of –40°C to +100°C under continuous operation. Its commercial-grade ambient rating (0°C to +85°C) assumes proper PCB thermal design with ≥2 oz copper planes and ≥4 thermal vias under the thermal pad to maintain junction limits during 2.5 W typical power dissipation.
