FAQ
Obsolete — does that mean any stock is used stock?
Not necessarily: unused channel and surplus lots exist alongside pulled parts. The difference shows in date codes, lead condition and documentation — verify all three before paying.
Can the XC3S250E replace the XC3S500E?
No — half the gates and logic. The 500E design will not fit the 250E device.
What testing can be arranged for a legacy lot?
Third-party testing is supported on request, and every lot ships with traceability documents. Date-code and label photos are provided before payment.
