XC7A35T-1CSG325C

Overview

The XC7A35T-1CSG325C is a member of the Artix-7 FPGA family, designed to provide high performance-per-watt for cost-sensitive applications. It features 33,280 logic cells and 150 I/O pins, offering a balance of logic density and connectivity in a compact 15x15mm 324-CSPBGA package. This device includes integrated DSP slices and high-speed transceivers, making it suitable for complex digital signal processing and high-bandwidth communication tasks.

Why Choose This Part

The Artix-7 architecture provides a low-power 28nm process technology that significantly reduces thermal dissipation compared to previous generations. The inclusion of 90 DSP slices and 1.8 Mb of Block RAM allows for high-throughput arithmetic operations without consuming excessive fabric resources. Its 0.8mm pitch BGA package balances high I/O density with manageable PCB manufacturing requirements.

Applications

Getting Started

Development is primarily performed using the AMD Vivado Design Suite, which supports hardware description languages like Verilog and VHDL. To begin prototyping, engineers often use boards like the Arty A7 or CMOD A7 which feature similar Artix-7 silicon. Hardware debugging is facilitated through the JTAG interface using a Xilinx Platform Cable USB II or compatible JTAG programmer.
