XC17S20PD8C

Overview

The XC17S20PD8C is a one-time programmable (OTP) configuration PROM designed for Spartan and Spartan-XL FPGAs. It provides non-volatile storage for device configuration bitstreams. The component operates within a voltage range of 3V to 3.6V and supports an operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. It features a memory size of 200kb and utilizes an 8-pin DIP package.

Feature Summary

• Stores configuration bitstreams for Spartan and Spartan-XL FPGA devices
• Utilizes low-power CMOS floating-gate process technology
• Features a simple interface requiring only one user I/O pin
• Supports programmable reset polarity options

Applications

• Configuration storage for Spartan FPGA families
• Configuration storage for Spartan-XL FPGA families
• Non-volatile memory for system initialization

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'PD8C' against official AMD documentation to confirm package type and temperature grade. Confirm RoHS compliance status as older variants may be non-compliant. Check part status for obsolescence or end-of-life notices prior to procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when configuring Spartan or Spartan-XL FPGAs with OTP requirements. Ensure the design accommodates the 3V to 3.6V supply voltage. Verify that the 8-pin DIP package fits the target PCB layout constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the XC17S00/XL family of configuration PROMs. These devices are specifically engineered to store configuration data for Xilinx Spartan and Spartan-XL field-programmable gate arrays, enabling reliable system startup and configuration retention.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official AMD substitution lists for verified equivalents. Generic OTP PROMs may not match the specific interface timing or voltage requirements necessary for Spartan FPGA configuration.
