Product details
Overview
XCS30XL-4TQ144C from AMD (formerly Xilinx) is a Spartan-XL family FPGA with 30,000 system gates, 144-pin TQFP package, -4 speed grade, and commercial temperature range (0°C to 70°C). It integrates configurable logic blocks, I/O banks supporting 3.3V and 5V tolerant inputs, and dedicated global clock routing for embedded control and interface bridging in industrial PLCs.
For engineers reviewing the XCS30XL-4TQ144C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include gate count, I/O voltage tolerance, clock resource architecture, and commercial-grade thermal specification.
Technical Context
The XCS30XL-4TQ144C implements a segmented interconnect architecture with four global clock lines and hierarchical routing resources. Its CLBs contain two 3-input LUTs and flip-flops with synchronous reset and clock enable.
I/O banks are organized into eight groups, each configurable for LVTTL, LVCMOS, or PCI-compliant signaling. Input buffers support 5V-tolerant operation independent of VCCO setting, enabling mixed-voltage board design without level shifters.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the XCS30XL-4TQ144C?
The XCS30XL-4TQ144C has a -4 speed grade, guaranteeing a maximum clock frequency of 100 MHz for registered logic paths under worst-case commercial temperature and voltage conditions. This rating is verified through static timing analysis using Xilinx Foundation software and applies to fully constrained designs with proper placement and routing.
Does the XCS30XL-4TQ144C support JTAG programming?
Yes, the XCS30XL-4TQ144C supports IEEE 1149.1 JTAG boundary-scan programming and debugging via dedicated TCK, TMS, TDI, and TDO pins. JTAG mode is selected by pulling M0 high and M1/M2 low at power-on, enabling in-system configuration and verification without requiring external PROM.
Can the XCS30XL-4TQ144C interface directly with 5V logic devices?
Yes, the XCS30XL-4TQ144C features 5V-tolerant input buffers on all user I/O pins, allowing direct connection to 5V TTL or CMOS outputs without external level-shifting components. This capability is enabled independently of VCCO voltage and is specified across the full commercial temperature range.
What configuration modes does the XCS30XL-4TQ144C support?
The XCS30XL-4TQ144C supports three primary configuration modes: JTAG (via TAP controller), Master Serial (using on-chip oscillator and external serial PROM), and Slave Parallel (synchronized to external host processor). Mode selection is controlled by the M0–M2 pins at power-on reset.
Is the XCS30XL-4TQ144C still in active production?
The XCS30XL-4TQ144C is a mature Spartan-XL device with end-of-life status declared by AMD/Xilinx. However, Aetrix Electronics maintains verified legacy inventory with full traceability and provides extended lifecycle support, including obsolescence mitigation planning and cross-reference guidance for migration paths.
