Spartan-3E FPGA Family: Pinout Descriptions
User I/Os by Bank
Table 137 and Table 138 indicate how the 108 available
user-I/O pins are distributed between the four I/O banks on
the TQ144 package.

Notes:
1. Some VREF and CLK pins are on INPUT pins.
2. The eight global clock pins in this bank have optional functionality during configuration and are counted in the DUAL column.

The arrows indicate the direction for easy migration. For
example, a left-facing arrow indicates that the pin on the
XC3S250E unconditionally migrates to the pin on the
XC3S100E. It may be possible to migrate the opposite
direction depending on the I/O configuration. For example,
an I/O pin (Type = I/O) can migrate to an input-only pin
(Type = INPUT) if the I/O pin is configured as an input.
Footprint Migration Differences
Table 139 summarizes any footprint and functionality
differences between the XC3S100E and the XC3S250E
FPGAs that may affect easy migration between devices.
There are four such pins. All other pins not listed in
Table 139 unconditionally migrate between Spartan-3E
devices available in the TQ144 package.

Legend:
This pin can unconditionally migrate from the device on the left to the device on the right. Migration in the other direction may
be possible depending on how the pin is configured for the device on the right.
