XC4025E-3HQ240I

Field Programmable Gate Array Overview

The XC4025E-3HQ240I is a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) from the Xilinx XC4000E series, manufactured by AMD. It features an architecture with 784 Configurable Logic Blocks (CLBs) and approximately 13,000 logic gates. The device supports a maximum clock frequency of 125 MHz with a CLB maximum combinational delay of 2 ns. It is housed in a 240-pin High-Performance Quad Flat Package (HQFP) with dimensions of 32 mm length. The component includes IEEE 1149.1-compatible boundary scan logic support and individually programmable output slew rates.

Field Programmable Gate Array Feature Summary

• Flexible array architecture with wide edge decoders on each edge for efficient routing.
• Hierarchy of interconnect lines supporting complex logic designs.
• Internal three-state bus capability for flexible system integration.
• Eight global low-skew clock or signal distribution networks.

Field Programmable Gate Array Applications

• Digital signal processing systems requiring moderate gate counts.
• Industrial control applications utilizing boundary scan testing.
• Communication interface prototyping and implementation.
• Custom logic acceleration in embedded environments.

Field Programmable Gate Array Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors due to potential obsolescence status within the XC4000E family. Confirm moisture sensitivity level 3 handling requirements during storage and assembly. Ensure compatibility with legacy programming tools and verify lead-free status if RoHS compliance is mandatory for the specific production environment.

Field Programmable Gate Array Selection Notes

Select this model when 784 CLBs are sufficient for the design complexity. Compare against XC4028XL for higher performance or XC4013E for lower cost options. Consider the 3 speed grade for timing closure at 125 MHz. Evaluate package availability as HQFP-240 may have limited new production compared to smaller packages.

Field Programmable Gate Array Part Context

This part belongs to the XC4000E series, which offers enhanced performance over the original XC4000X series. It shares architectural similarities with other E-series devices like the XC4020E and XC4028EX. The series is characterized by its segmented routing architecture and low power consumption relative to earlier generations.

Field Programmable Gate Array Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-to-pin replacements within the same package are limited. Consider XC4020E-3HQG240I for similar gate density with RoHS compliance. Higher density alternatives include XC4028XL-3HQ240I. Verify functional equivalence before substitution as I/O standards may differ.
