• Supports surface mount installation via CSBGA-196 package

Field Programmable Gate Array Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring programmable logic
• Consumer electronics interface design
• Test and measurement equipment prototyping

Field Programmable Gate Array Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'C' against official AMD documentation to confirm commercial grade temperature rating and RoHS compliance status. Ensure the ordering information matches the exact pin count and package type required for your PCB layout. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number directly with authorized distributors to avoid counterfeit components.

Field Programmable Gate Array Selection Notes

Select this model when a moderate logic density of 6000 LEs is sufficient for the design complexity. Consider the 196-ball CSBGA package constraints during mechanical design. Evaluate if the 180 kbit memory capacity meets data buffering needs without external memory interfaces. Confirm that the 100 I/O limit accommodates all peripheral connections.

Field Programmable Gate Array Part Context

This component belongs to the Spartan-7 series, which targets cost-sensitive and power-efficient applications compared to higher-end Virtex or Kintex families. The XC7S6 designation indicates the specific logic resource tier within the Spartan-7 lineup. It serves as a successor to the Spartan-6 series, offering improved performance per watt.

Field Programmable Gate Array Replacement Considerations

Direct functional replacements within the same package and pinout are limited in public documentation. Designers may consider other Spartan-7 variants with compatible packaging, but pin compatibility must be verified through official cross-reference tools provided by AMD.
