Product details
Overview
XC6SLX45T-N3FG484C from AMD (formerly Xilinx) is a Spartan-6 FPGA with 43,661 logic cells, 2.1 Mb of block RAM, 186 DSP48A1 slices, and supports 725 Mbps LVDS I/O. It is configured via SPI flash or JTAG and targets cost-sensitive embedded control and industrial interface applications.
For engineers reviewing the XC6SLX45T-N3FG484C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection factors include I/O voltage flexibility (1.2 V to 3.3 V), -3 speed grade timing margin, and FG484 flip-chip BGA package compatibility with industrial temperature range operation.
Technical Context
The XC6SLX45T-N3FG484C implements a hierarchical FPGA architecture with configurable logic blocks (CLBs), distributed RAM, shift registers, and dedicated carry logic. It integrates SelectIO technology supporting SSTL, HSTL, LVCMOS, and LVDS standards across 316 user I/O pins.
Configuration is performed through Master SPI, Slave Serial, or JTAG modes, with support for fallback configuration and multi-boot via external flash. The device includes internal oscillator, PLLs for clock synthesis, and power management features including suspend mode and dynamic I/O banking.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for XC6SLX45T-N3FG484C?
The XC6SLX45T-N3FG484C is rated for industrial temperature operation from 0 °C to +85 °C. This range is verified per AMD's qualification testing and applies to all speed grades and I/O configurations specified in the official Spartan-6 DC and Switching Characteristics datasheet. The device maintains full timing compliance and I/O performance across this range without derating.
Does XC6SLX45T-N3FG484C support PCIe Gen1 x1 endpoint functionality?
Yes, XC6SLX45T-N3FG484C includes integrated PCIe Gen1 x1 endpoint logic compliant with PCI Express Base Specification v1.1. This capability is enabled by the "T" suffix in the part number and requires no external bridge IC. Configuration is handled through dedicated hard IP blocks and supported by Xilinx ISE 14.7 or later toolchains.
How many I/O banks does XC6SLX45T-N3FG484C have, and what voltage levels do they support?
XC6SLX45T-N3FG484C has eight user-configurable I/O banks. Each bank supports independent VCCO voltages from 1.2 V to 3.3 V and can be set to SSTL, HSTL, LVCMOS, or LVDS standards. This enables mixed-voltage board designs, such as interfacing 1.8 V ADCs and 3.3 V microcontrollers simultaneously without level shifters.
What configuration modes are supported by XC6SLX45T-N3FG484C?
XC6SLX45T-N3FG484C supports Master SPI, Slave Serial, JTAG, and Boundary Scan configuration modes. Master SPI is most common for production, using on-board SPI flash; JTAG is used for debugging and programming during development. Mode selection is controlled by M0–M2 pins at power-up, as defined in the Spartan-6 Configuration User Guide UG380.
Is XC6SLX45T-N3FG484C pin-compatible with other Spartan-6 FG484 packages?
XC6SLX45T-N3FG484C shares the same FG484 footprint and pinout with other Spartan-6 devices in the same density and package variant (e.g., XC6SLX45-3FG484C), but differs electrically in PCIe endpoint presence and I/O drive strength. Mechanical compatibility is guaranteed; however, PCB reuse requires verification of power delivery, I/O voltage assignments, and configuration mode settings.
