A1010B-1PLG68I

Field Programmable Gate Array Overview

The A1010B-1PLG68I is an ACT™ 1 Field Programmable Gate Array manufactured by Microsemi Corporation. It features 295 Configurable Logic Blocks and approximately 1200 equivalent system gates. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V and supports 57 I/O pins. It is housed in a 68-pin Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC) package with J-leads. The component is rated for an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Field Programmable Gate Array Feature Summary

• ACT™ 1 architecture providing high-density programmable logic
• CMOS technology for low power consumption
• Industrial temperature rating for harsh environments

Field Programmable Gate Array Applications

• Complex digital logic replacement
• Prototyping custom ASIC designs
• Interface bridging between different logic families

Field Programmable Gate Array Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I' confirms the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +85°C). Confirm the package type is 68-PLCC. Check current availability status as this series may be discontinued or subject to last-time buy notices from Microchip Technology.

Field Programmable Gate Array Selection Notes

Select this model when 295 CLBs are sufficient for the design. Compare against A1020B variants if higher gate counts are required. Ensure the PCB footprint matches the 68-PLCC outline dimensions. Verify voltage compatibility with the 4.5V-5.5V requirement.

Field Programmable Gate Array Part Context

This part belongs to the Microsemi ACT™ 1 family, which succeeded earlier PAL/GAL devices. It offers reprogrammability compared to fixed logic. The A1010B variant specifically denotes the lower density option within the B-series, suitable for moderate complexity applications.

Field Programmable Gate Array Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-to-pin replacements are limited due to proprietary architecture. Consider A1020B series for higher capacity if pinout allows. Modern FPGA equivalents from Xilinx or Lattice require significant design migration.
