XC17S30XLVO8C

Overview

The XC17S30XLVO8C is a single-chip configuration PROM designed for Spartan-II and Spartan-IIE FPGAs. It provides 32-kbit (4K x 8) of one-time programmable memory to store FPGA configuration data. The device operates on a 3V supply voltage within the commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. Packaged in an 8-pin SOIC, it serves as a compact solution for storing bitstream files required to initialize compatible Xilinx field-programmable gate arrays.

Feature Summary

• Stores configuration bitstreams for Spartan-II and Spartan-IIE devices
• Single-chip OTP architecture eliminates external components
• Supports standard SPI serial interface for programming

Applications

• Configuration storage for Spartan-II FPGAs
• Configuration storage for Spartan-IIE FPGAs
• Compact embedded system initialization

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized channels due to obsolete status. Confirm package integrity and pin alignment before integration. Review RoHS compliance documentation as the part may not meet current environmental standards. Ensure compatibility with existing Spartan-II or Spartan-IIE designs requiring this specific memory density.

Selection Notes

Select this component when configuring Spartan-II or Spartan-IIE FPGAs with up to 4K x 8 bits of logic resources. It is suitable for applications requiring low-cost, space-constrained configuration solutions. Consider alternative densities if design complexity exceeds 4K LUTs. Verify that the target FPGA family supports the serial PROM interface provided by this device.

Part Context

This part belongs to the XC17S20/XL Spartan-XL family of configuration PROMs. These devices were specifically engineered to simplify the configuration process for early Xilinx Spartan architectures. They integrate the necessary control logic and memory into a single package, reducing board space and assembly costs compared to parallel configuration methods.

Replacement Considerations

The XC17S30XLVO8C is obsolete. Official substitutes include the XC17S30E and XC17S30V series. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical specifications before substitution. Newer Spartan families may require different configuration controllers.
