XC3S400-4FT256CES of Xilinx Spartan-3 FPGA

XC3S400-4FT256CES FPGAs Overview

The XC3S400-4FT256CES of Field-Programmable Gate Arrays is specifically designed to meet the needs of high volume, cost-sensitive consumer electronic applications.The XC3S400-4FT256CES 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 XC3S400-4FT256CES 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, XC3S400-4FT256CES are ideally suited to a wide range of consumer electronics applications, including broadband access, home networking, display/projection and digital television equipment.

The Spartan XC3S400-4FT256CES is a superior alternative to mask programmed ASICs. avoid the high initial cost, the lengthy development cycles, and the inherent inflexibility of conventional ASICs. Also, XC3S400-4FT256CES FPGA programmability permits design upgrades in the field with no hardware replacement necessary, an impossibility with ASICs.
