Integrated adder for complex multiply or multiply-add operation
Integrated 18-bit pre-adder
Optional cascaded Multiply or MAC
The Xilinx Automotive (XA) Spartan®-3A DSP family of FPGAs
solves the design challenges in most high-volume, cost-sensitive,
high-performance DSP automotive applications. The two-member
family offers densities ranging from 1.8 to 3.4 million system gates,
as shown in Table 1.

3.3V, 2.5V, 1.8V, 1.5V, and 1.2V signaling
Selectable output drive, up to 24 mA per pin
QUIETIO standard reduces I/O switching noise
Full 3.3V ± 10% compatibility and hot-swap compliance
622+ Mb/s data transfer rate per differential I/O
LVDS, RSDS, mini-LVDS, HSTL/SSTL differential I/O with

Introduction
XA devices are available in both extended-temperature Q-Grade
(–40°C to +125°C TJ) and I-Grade (–40°C to +100°C TJ) and are
qualified to the industry recognized AEC-Q100 standard.
The XA Spartan-3A DSP family builds on the success of the earlier
XA Spartan-3E and XA Spartan-3 FPGA families by adding
hardened DSP MACs with pre-adders, significantly increasing the
throughput and performance of this low-cost family. These XA
Spartan-3A DSP family enhancements, combined with proven
90 nm process technology, deliver more functionality and
bandwidth per dollar than ever before, setting the new standard in
the programmable logic industry.

Hierarchical SelectRAM™ memory architecture
Because of their exceptionally low cost, XA Spartan-3A DSP
FPGAs are ideally suited to a wide range of automotive electronics
applications, including infotainment, driver information, and driver
assistance modules.
♦
Up to 2,268 Kbits of fast block RAM with byte write enables for
processor applications
Up to 373 Kbits of efficient distributed RAM

•
Eight Digital Clock Managers (DCMs)
The XA Spartan-3A DSP family is a superior alternative to mask
programmed ASICs. FPGAs avoid the high initial mask set costs
and lengthy development cycles, while also permitting design
upgrades in the field with no hardware replacement necessary
because of its inherent programmability, an impossibility with
conventional ASICs and ASSPs with their inflexible architecture.
