Sourcing Note

The 3S50A is a legacy Spartan-3A device — 50,000 system gates, 1,584 logic cells and 68 I/O in a 14 x 14 mm VQFP that repair and lifetime-buy programmes still ask for by exact part number. DigiKey lists this part as Obsolete, so supply is remaining stock only and date code and provenance are the whole conversation. The commercial C grade is specified 0°C to +85°C; do not let a listing blur it into the industrial grade. Send your quantity and date-code requirement and we check current availability for this exact variant. Related parts: XC6SLX9-2TQG144C and XC6SLX9-2TQG144I.

FAQ

The part is obsolete — what should I check before buying?

Date code and provenance first. On obsolete Spartan-3A stock, ask for date-code and label photos of the actual lot and traceability documents before payment, and third-party testing if your volume justifies it.

Is the 3S50A interchangeable with the older 3S50?

Not automatically. Spartan-3A is a revised family, not a marking variant of Spartan-3. Treat any substitution as an engineering decision and check it against your original qualification records.

How can I verify the condition of a lot before paying?

Ask for date-code and label photos of the actual lot, traceability documents, and third-party testing if your volume justifies it. We provide the first two before payment and support the third on request.
