XCF16PFS48C

Overview

The XCF16PFS48C is a 16Mb In-System Programmable (ISP) Configuration PROM designed for Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) applications. Operating at a supply voltage of 1.8V, this device provides non-volatile storage for FPGA configuration data. It supports multiple configuration modes, including serial and parallel interfaces, allowing flexible integration into various system designs. The component facilitates design revision capabilities and is housed in a 48-pin CSPBGA package.

Feature Summary

• In-System Programmability for flexible configuration updates
• Supports both serial and parallel configuration modes
• Enables design revision functionality for FPGA systems

Applications

• Configuration memory for Xilinx FPGAs
• Non-volatile storage for system boot data
• Embedded design revision management

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer source, as the component may be sourced from AMD/Xilinx or STMicroelectronics depending on the production lot. Confirm the exact package marking and date code to ensure authenticity. Check for obsolete status indicators in current distributor catalogs. Ensure compatibility with the target FPGA family before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 16Mb capacity is required for FPGA configuration. Consider the 1.8V operating voltage requirement against the system power rails. Evaluate the need for ISP capabilities versus standard mask-programmed options. Verify that the 48-pin CSPBGA package fits the PCB layout constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the XCF series of configuration PROMs. These devices are specifically engineered to store bitstreams for configuring programmable logic devices. The series offers varying capacities and interface options to suit different complexity levels of FPGA designs.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct pin-compatible substitutes within the same capacity range. Verify if newer generation configuration memories offer improved speed or lower power consumption while maintaining functional equivalence.
