Hi,
Just got a question what to do if future needs fill up a Spartan-3A
DSP 3400 CS484. A very quick and unqualified look at Spartan-6 family
show a package called CSG484 with same physical dimensions as the
CS484. Hope to do as few changes on the PCB as possible. Since the
supply voltage is not the same, a drop-in replacement will not be
possible anyway, but I would like to keep the rewiring need low.
Anybody done this or thought of this who would share some impressions?

Xilinx doesn't believe in footprint-compatible parts.
