Field Programmable Gate Array Procurement Notes

Verify the suffix 'I' confirms industrial temperature rating (-40°C to +85°C) and '3' denotes the specific speed grade. Confirm the CSBGA-225 package dimensions match the target PCB footprint. Check RoHS compliance status against current manufacturing revisions.

Field Programmable Gate Array Selection Notes

Select this model when designs require moderate logic density with integrated processing capabilities. Compare against the XC6SLX16-2 variant if higher clock speeds are unnecessary. Ensure the 160 I/O count satisfies all peripheral interface requirements without excessive pin multiplexing.

Field Programmable Gate Array Part Context

This component belongs to the Spartan-6 LX series, targeting cost-sensitive applications requiring programmable logic. It sits between lower-density models like the XC6SLX9 and higher-capacity variants such as the XC6SLX25. The series emphasizes power efficiency and system integration through on-chip resources.

Field Programmable Gate Array FAQ

What is the difference between the XC6SLX16-3CSG225I and XC6SLX16-2CSG225I?

The primary difference is the speed grade; the '-3' suffix indicates a slower maximum operating frequency compared to the '-2' suffix, while maintaining identical logic and memory resources.

Does this device support PCIe interfaces?

No, the standard Spartan-6 LX devices do not include hard PCIe blocks. They rely on soft-core implementations or external bridges for PCIe connectivity.
