Introduction
The Spartan®-3E family of Field-Programmable GateArrays (FPGAs) is specifically designed to meet the needsof high volume, cost-sensitive consumer electronicapplications. The five-member family offers densitiesranging from 100,000 to 1.6 million system gates, as shownin Table 1.The Spartan-3E family builds on the success of the earlierSpartan-3 family by increasing the amount of logic per I/O,significantly reducing the cost per logic cell. New featuresimprove system performance and reduce the cost ofconfiguration. These Spartan-3E FPGA enhancements,combined with advanced 90 nm process technology, delivermore functionality and bandwidth per dollar than waspreviously possible, setting new standards in theprogrammable logic industry.Because of their exceptionally low cost, Spartan-3E FPGAsare ideally suited to a wide range of consumer electronicsapplications, including broadband access, homenetworking, display/projection, and digital televisionequipment.The Spartan-3E family is a superior alternative to maskprogrammed ASICs. FPGAs avoid the high initial cost, thelengthy development cycles, and the inherent inflexibility ofconventional ASICs. Also, FPGA programmability permitsdesign upgrades in the field with no hardware replacementnecessary, an impossibility with ASICs.
