Key differences
The A3C 050 has about 39% more logic capacity (32K vs 23K LUT4 equivalents).
They use different logic architectures: the A3C 050 is built from ALMs and the XC7Z007S from LUT6, so the raw LUT counts (16K vs 14.4K) are not directly comparable.
For arithmetic, the XC7Z007S has 66 DSP slices against 65 variable-precision DSP blocks on the A3C 050.
The A3C 050 has more on-chip memory (2.4 Mb vs 1.8 Mb).
The A3C 050 is designed with Altera Quartus Prime and the XC7Z007S with AMD Vivado.
