Product Specification
DS099 (v3.1) June 27, 2013
Introduction
The Spartan®-3 family of Field-Programmable Gate Arrays
is specifically designed to meet the needs of high volume,
cost-sensitive consumer electronic applications. The
eight-member family offers densities ranging from 50,000 to
5,000,000 system gates, as shown in
Table 1.
The Spartan-3 family builds on the success of the earlier
Spartan-IIE family by increasing the amount of logic
resources, the capacity of internal RAM, the total number of
I/Os, and the overall level of performance as well as by
improving clock management functions. Numerous
enhancements derive from the Virtex®-II platform
technology. These Spartan-3 FPGA enhancements,
combined with advanced process technology, deliver more
functionality and bandwidth per dollar than was previously
possible, setting new standards in the programmable logic
industry.
Because of their exceptionally low cost, Spartan-3 FPGAs
are ideally suited to a wide range of consumer electronics
applications, including broadband access, home
networking, display/projection and digital television
equipment.
The Spartan-3 family is a superior alternative to mask
programmed ASICs. FPGAs avoid the high initial cost, the
lengthy development cycles, and the inherent inflexibility of
conventional ASICs. Also, FPGA programmability permits
design upgrades in the field with no hardware replacement
necessary, an impossibility with ASICs.

Spartan-3 FPGA Family: Introduction and Ordering Information
Architectural Overview
The Spartan-3 family architecture consists of five fundamental programmable functional elements:
•
Configurable Logic Blocks (CLBs) contain RAM-based Look-Up Tables (LUTs) to implement logic and storage
elements that can be used as flip-flops or latches. CLBs can be programmed to perform a wide variety of logical
functions as well as to store data.
Input/Output Blocks (IOBs) control the flow of data between the I/O pins and the internal logic of the device. Each IOB
supports bidirectional data flow plus 3-state operation. Twenty-six different signal standards, including eight
high-performance differential standards, are available as shown in
Table 2.
Double Data-Rate (DDR) registers are
included. The Digitally Controlled Impedance (DCI) feature provides automatic on-chip terminations, simplifying board
designs.
Block RAM provides data storage in the form of 18-Kbit dual-port blocks.
Multiplier blocks accept two 18-bit binary numbers as inputs and calculate the product.
Digital Clock Manager (DCM) blocks provide self-calibrating, fully digital solutions for distributing, delaying, multiplying,
dividing, and phase shifting clock signals.
•
•
•
•
These elements are organized as shown in
Figure 1.
A ring of IOBs surrounds a regular array of CLBs. The XC3S50 has a
single column of block RAM embedded in the array. Those devices ranging from the XC3S200 to the XC3S2000 have two
columns of block RAM. The XC3S4000 and XC3S5000 devices have four RAM columns. Each column is made up of several
18-Kbit RAM blocks; each block is associated with a dedicated multiplier. The DCMs are positioned at the ends of the outer
block RAM columns.
The Spartan-3 family features a rich network of traces and switches that interconnect all five functional elements,
transmitting signals among them. Each functional element has an associated switch matrix that permits multiple connections
to the routing.

Notes:

The two additional block RAM columns of the XC3S4000 and XC3S5000 devices
are shown with dashed lines. The XC3S50 has only the block RAM column on the
far left.
Figure 1:
Spartan-3 Family Architecture
Configuration
Spartan-3 FPGAs are programmed by loading configuration data into robust reprogrammable static CMOS configuration
latches (CCLs) that collectively control all functional elements and routing resources. Before powering on the FPGA,
configuration data is stored externally in a PROM or some other nonvolatile medium either on or off the board. After applying

Spartan-3 FPGA Family: Introduction and Ordering Information
power, the configuration data is written to the FPGA using any of five different modes: Master Parallel, Slave Parallel, Master
Serial, Slave Serial, and Boundary Scan (JTAG). The Master and Slave Parallel modes use an 8-bit-wide SelectMAP port.
The recommended memory for storing the configuration data is the low-cost Xilinx Platform Flash PROM family, which
includes the XCF00S PROMs for serial configuration and the higher density XCF00P PROMs for parallel or serial
configuration.
I/O Capabilities
The SelectIO feature of Spartan-3 devices supports eighteen single-ended standards and eight differential standards as
listed in
Table 2.
Many standards support the DCI feature, which uses integrated terminations to eliminate unwanted signal
reflections.

Package Marking
Figure 2
shows the top marking for Spartan-3 FPGAs in the quad-flat packages.
Figure 3
shows the top marking for
Spartan-3 FPGAs in BGA packages except the 132-ball chip-scale package (CP132 and CPG132). The markings for the
BGA packages are nearly identical to those for the quad-flat packages, except that the marking is rotated with respect to the
ball A1 indicator.
Figure 4
shows the top marking for Spartan-3 FPGAs in the CP132 and CPG132 packages.
The “
5C
” and “
4I
” part combinations may be dual marked as “
5C/4I
”. Devices with the dual mark can be used as either -5C
or -4I devices. Devices with a single mark are only guaranteed for the marked speed grade and temperature range. Some
specifications vary according to mask revision. Mask revision E devices are errata-free. All shipments since 2006 have been
mask revision E.
