Active87 in stock

Overview

The XC7S25-1CSGA225C is a member of the AMD (Xilinx) Spartan-7 family, offering 23,360 logic cells and 150 I/O pins in a compact 13x13mm CSGA package. Built on a 28nm process, it provides a balance of low power consumption and high-performance fabric for cost-sensitive edge applications. This specific variant features a -1 speed grade and a commercial temperature range of 0C to 85C.

Why Choose This Part

This FPGA provides a high I/O count of 150 pins in a relatively small 225-CSGA footprint, making it ideal for space-constrained PCB designs. With 1,658,880 bits of total RAM and 1,825 CLBs, it offers significant logic density for a low-cost, entry-level FPGA.

Applications

Industrial Interface Bridging
Converting between disparate industrial communication protocols or handling custom bus timings that standard MCUs cannot manage.
Simple Video Processing
Performing real-time image manipulation, scaling, or interface conversion for small display systems.
Motor Control Acceleration
Offloading high-speed PWM generation and encoder feedback processing from a primary processor to reduce latency.
Sensor Fusion
Aggregating data from multiple high-speed sensors with deterministic timing and parallel processing.

Getting Started

Development is primarily done using the Xilinx Vivado Design Suite, which supports hardware description languages like VHDL and Verilog. For rapid prototyping, look for Spartan-7 development boards such as the Digilent Arty S7 or Cmod S7, which provide integrated USB-JTAG circuitry for easy programming.
