Product details
Overview
XC7A15T-3FGG484E from AMD (formerly Xilinx) is a Spartan-7 FPGA featuring 15,840 logic cells, 12.5 Gbps transceiver capability, and -3 speed grade operation at 1.0V core voltage. It integrates 920 KB of block RAM, 120 DSP slices, and supports PCIe Gen2 x2 endpoint functionality in a 484-pin Fine-Pitch Flip-Chip BGA package for industrial control and embedded vision applications.
For engineers reviewing the XC7A15T-3FGG484E datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include I/O count (240 user I/Os), transceiver compliance (PCIe Gen2, SATA 3.0), thermal performance (100°C junction temperature), and configuration interface options (SPIx4, SelectMAP).
Technical Context
The XC7A15T-3FGG484E implements a 28 nm HKMG process-based architecture with dedicated clock management tiles (CMT) containing PLLs and MMCMs for jitter reduction and frequency synthesis. Its I/O bank structure supports mixed-voltage operation across 12 banks, each configurable for LVDS, SSTL, HSTL, or TMDS signaling.
Configuration occurs via Master SPI or Slave SelectMAP mode using external flash or processor-controlled initialization. The device includes hardened primitives for PCIe Gen2 endpoint, 10/100/1000 Ethernet MAC, and AES-256 bitstream encryption for secure boot.
