A2F060M3E-CS288I

Soc System On Chip Overview

The Microsemi A2F060M3E-CS288I is a SmartFusion customizable system-on-chip (cSoC) integrating a ProASIC3 FPGA fabric with a hardened ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller subsystem and programmable analog resources. The device features 60,000 system gates, 1536 configurable logic blocks, and operates at a 350 MHz system performance. It includes a 100 MHz Cortex-M3 processor with 128 Kbytes of embedded nonvolatile flash memory and 16 Kbytes of embedded SRAM. The integrated analog front-end provides one 12-bit SAR ADC, one sigma-delta DAC, two comparators, and signal conditioning blocks. The component utilizes a CS288 package with 288 terminals.

Soc System On Chip Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current product table to confirm temperature grade and packaging compliance. Ensure design requirements align with the A2F060 density class, as peripheral availability such as Ethernet MAC varies by device size within the family.

Soc System On Chip Selection Notes

Select this part for applications requiring low power consumption and instant-on capabilities without external boot PROMs. The A2F060 offers cost optimization for high-volume production. Confirm that the 128 Kbytes eNVM and 16 Kbytes eSRAM meet code and data storage needs before choosing higher-density variants like the A2F200.

Soc System On Chip Part Context

This component belongs to the SmartFusion cSoC family, which combines FPGA technology with microcontroller and analog blocks on a single chip. The A2F060 represents the entry-level density in this series, designed to provide a balance of processing power, programmability, and analog integration for embedded systems.

Soc System On Chip Replacement Considerations

Direct functional replacements within the same package are limited due to unique pinouts and internal architectures. Consider the A2F060M3B or A2F060M3F if different memory configurations are required, or upgrade to the A2F200M3 for increased logic resources and additional peripherals.
