Field Programmable Gate Array Procurement Notes

Verify current availability status as this component may be subject to discontinuation or limited production runs. Confirm RoHS compliance and moisture sensitivity level requirements prior to procurement. Ensure that the specific suffix matches design specifications, as packaging variations exist. Cross-reference official Microsemi documentation for any recent product change notifications affecting lead times or material composition.

Field Programmable Gate Array Selection Notes

Select this model when a design requires simultaneous digital logic processing and analog signal conditioning within a single chip. The PQFP-208 package offers a surface-mount solution suitable for space-constrained applications. Consider the 1.8V core voltage requirement when designing power delivery networks. Verify that the 300MHz performance meets timing constraints for the target application logic complexity.

Field Programmable Gate Array Part Context

This part belongs to the Actel Fusion series, which bridges the gap between traditional FPGAs and ASICs by providing reconfigurable logic alongside fixed analog blocks. The PQG208 designation indicates a Plastic Quad Flat Package with 208 pins, offering a balance of I/O density and thermal performance for mid-range complexity designs in industrial and commercial sectors.

Field Programmable Gate Array Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements within the same family include the A1460B-PQG208I. For upgraded performance, consider the A1500A-PQG208I. Designers migrating from older Actel ProASIC families should verify I/O compatibility and power supply differences.
