A1425A-PQG100C

Field Programmable Gate Array Overview

The A1425A-PQG100C is an ACT3 series Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) manufactured by Microsemi Corporation. It features a capacity of 2,500 equivalent gates and 310 Logic Blocks (LABs). The device operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V and supports up to 80 user-programmable I/O pins. It is housed in a 100-BQFP package with dimensions of 20x14 mm. The component is rated for industrial temperature operation from -40°C to +85°C ambient temperature.

Field Programmable Gate Array Feature Summary

• ACT3 architecture providing highly predictable performance through automatic place-and-route tools
• Supports mixed-voltage operation for core and I/Os with PCI-compliant interface capabilities
• Includes fast, low-skew clock networks for deterministic timing control

Field Programmable Gate Array Applications

• Industrial automation systems requiring robust programmable logic
• Telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• Automotive electronic control units

Field Programmable Gate Array Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'C' against official Microsemi documentation to confirm commercial temperature rating (-40°C to +85°C). Confirm that the PQG100 designation corresponds to the 100-BQFP package type. Check current product status as legacy components may have limited availability or end-of-life restrictions.

Field Programmable Gate Array Selection Notes

Select this model when a moderate gate count FPGA with industrial temperature stability is required. Ensure the design utilizes the ACT3 ecosystem for compatibility. Verify that the 100-pin BQFP footprint fits the target PCB layout constraints compared to alternative packages like CQFP.

Field Programmable Gate Array Part Context

This part belongs to the Microsemi ACT3 accelerator series, designed as a high-capacity single-chip ASIC alternative. The family offers scalable logic density with deterministic timing characteristics suitable for complex digital logic implementations.

Field Programmable Gate Array Replacement Considerations

Consult Microsemi documentation for direct pin-compatible replacements within the ACT3 family. Consider the A1425A-1CQ132C if a larger package is acceptable.
