The Xilinx XCF01S EEPROM is responsible for configuring the FPGA when the system is turned on or reset. We selected the XCF01S because it is recommended by Xilinx as the best solution for programming the Spartan-3A FPGA used on the control board. The XCF01S is ideal because it has sufficient memory to hold the entire FPGA program, and also minimizes the number of FPGA-to-EEPROM leads necessary for programming the FPGA. For more information on the mode of programming the FPGA, see [[FPGA programming modes]].

TODO: Insert information about logic levels.

Both the EEPROM and the FPGA are designed to tolerate +3.3V CMOS logic levels, keeping the configuration logic at the same voltages as the other logic on the board.
