Product details
Overview
XC95288XL-7PQ208C from AMD (acquired Xilinx CPLD business) is a 288-macrocell in-system programmable CPLD with 7 ns pin-to-pin propagation delay, 208-pin PQFP package, and 5 V tolerant I/Os. It serves as a glue logic replacement in legacy industrial control backplanes requiring deterministic timing and non-volatile configuration.
For engineers reviewing the XC95288XL-7PQ208C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection factors include macrocell count, propagation delay grade, I/O voltage tolerance, non-volatile configuration retention, and legacy 5 V system compatibility.
Technical Context
This device belongs to the XC9500XL family of high-performance CPLDs built on 0.35 µm CMOS technology. It features four function blocks interconnected via a global routing pool, each containing 72 macrocells with configurable product-term-based logic and registered outputs.
Configuration is stored in on-chip EEPROM, enabling instant-on operation without external configuration memory. The device supports IEEE 1149.1 JTAG boundary-scan testing and in-system programming via standard JTAG interface at 5 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Macrocell Count | 288 macrocells distributed across 4 function blocks for complex combinational and registered logic implementation |
| Propagation Delay (tPD) | 7 ns maximum - guarantees deterministic timing in 5 V synchronous backplane interfaces |
| I/O Pins | 168 user I/Os with 5 V tolerance - compatible with legacy TTL/CMOS bus signaling without level shifters |
| Supply Voltage (VCC) | 3.3 V core with 5 V-tolerant I/Os - enables direct interfacing to 5 V peripherals while reducing internal power consumption |
| Configuration Memory | On-chip EEPROM - retains logic configuration after power cycle; no external PROM required |
| JTAG Support | IEEE 1149.1 compliant - enables boundary-scan testing and in-system programming without dedicated programming hardware |
Pinout & Package
XC95288XL-7PQ208C is housed in a 208-pin Plastic Quad Flat Pack (PQFP) with 0.5 mm lead pitch, JEDEC MS-026AC compliant, and 28 × 28 mm body size. Thermal pad is not present; standard reflow profile applies.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (multiple) | Ground reference | Provides common return path for core and I/O circuits; requires low-impedance PCB plane connection |
| VCC (multiple) | Core supply | 3.3 V power input for internal logic; decoupling capacitors must be placed near each pin |
| VCCIO (multiple) | I/O supply | 5 V supply for I/O buffers; enables 5 V-tolerant operation independent of core voltage |
| TCK/TMS/TDI/TDO | JTAG interface | Standard IEEE 1149.1 test access port for programming and boundary-scan diagnostics |
| TDI/TDO | Boundary-scan data path | Serial data input/output for JTAG chain; supports daisy-chained debugging of multiple devices |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| EEPROM-based non-volatile configuration | Eliminates boot-up delay and external configuration PROM; supports field updates via JTAG |
| 7 ns pin-to-pin delay | Meets timing closure requirements in 100 MHz–140 MHz control bus applications without added wait states |
| 5 V-tolerant I/Os | Direct integration into legacy 5 V systems without level-shifting circuitry or redesign |
| Four-function-block architecture | Enables modular logic partitioning with local interconnect and global routing flexibility |
| In-system programmability | Allows firmware-level logic updates during system maintenance without device removal |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar CPLD-based glue logic applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| XCR3256XL-7PQ208C | 256 macrocells, same 7 ns speed grade and PQ208 package; lower density but identical pinout and voltage specs | Suitable where logic complexity fits within 256 macrocells; reduces cost without layout change | Select when design uses ≤256 macrocells and seeks lower unit cost with identical footprint |
| XC95288XL-10PQ208C | Same 288 macrocells and PQ208 package; slower 10 ns propagation delay grade | Acceptable in systems with relaxed timing margins; higher temperature margin at same VCC | Select when 10 ns delay satisfies setup/hold timing and extended temperature operation is prioritized |
Compared with XC95288XL-7PQ208C, the XCR3256XL-7PQ208C offers cost savings at reduced capacity, while the XC95288XL-10PQ208C trades timing performance for improved thermal robustness - both retain full pin and software compatibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by XC95288XL-7PQ208C?
The XC95288XL-7PQ208C does not specify a single maximum clock frequency due to logic depth dependency, but its 7 ns pin-to-pin propagation delay enables reliable operation in synchronous designs up to 140 MHz for register-to-register paths. Actual system frequency depends on internal routing and logic utilization, as documented in Xilinx Application Note XAPP161.
