Data Sheet Revisions for Xilinx
Automotive (XA) Spartan-3A/-3A
DSP FPGA Devices
Product Change Notice
Overview
The purpose of this notification is to communicate some revisions to the Xilinx Automotive (XA) Spartan®-3A and
Spartan-3A DSP data sheets describing parasitic leakage current that may occur when an input is below -0.2V. There is
no change to the form, fit, or function.
Description
The XA Spartan-3A and XA Spartan-3A DSP data sheets and UG331 user guide have been revised to describe
parasitic leakage current that can occur when an input is below -0.2V but within the device Recommended Operating
Conditions. The details of the key revisions are listed below to insure identification of information that has been added
or changed. All the revisions are also listed within the Revision History sections of the listed data sheets and UG331
user guide. There is no change to the form, fit, or function of these devices.
Key revisions in the XA Spartan-3A data sheets (listed in Table 1):
• Updated General Recommended Operating Conditions table for VIN input voltage. Specification is unchanged, but
the description is split between single-ended pins and pins that support differential signaling. A footnote is added for
the pins that support differential signaling, referring to a new Parasitic Leakage section in UG331.
For single-ended pins that are placed on a differential-capable I/O, VIN of -0.2V to -0.5V is supported but can cause
increased leakage between the two pins. See Parasitic Leakage in UG331, Spartan-3 Generation FPGA User Guide.
Key revision in UG331, Spartan-3 Generation FPGA User Guide, v1.7:
• Added section labeled “Parasitic Leakage” on pages 365-372.
Products Affected
This change affects all XA Spartan-3A and XA Spartan-3A DSP devices (I-Grade and Q-Grade) including all versions
under specification control documentation (SCD) reference. Affected part numbers are included in the following table(s):
