I am looking at using the XPLA3 in a new design and am having trouble finding an evaluation board. So I started looking around and see that Xilinx seems to be severely curtailing support of these parts. There Xilinx no longer offers evaluation boards and I can't find many third party boards that are still offered.
On the bright side, when I did a search at Nuhorizons for XCR3128, I got lots of hits. That alone would not give me confidence, but not only did I get the XCR3128XL that I need to use, I found the XCR3128 without the XL which is an even older part. If they are still selling those parts, I guess I can expect to see the XCR3128XL around for quite a while.
The Coolrunner II may be a bit lower power, but the XPLA3 parts are nearly as low power for our application and only require a single power voltage. That makes them *more* power efficient. I just wish Xilinx provided as much support for the XPLA3 parts as they do for the Coolrunner II.
Are there any advantages of the Coolrunner II parts that I am missing? I see they have input hysteresis, but otherwise they seem pretty much the same as the Coolrunner XPLA3.
