A3P1000-FG144I

Field Programmable Gate Array Overview

The A3P1000-FG144I is a ProASIC3 Flash Field Programmable Gate Array manufactured by Microchip Technology. It features 1,000,000 system gates and 11,000 logic elements within a 144-pin FineLine BGA package. The device supports 97 user I/Os and operates with a supply voltage range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V. It includes 144 kbits of embedded true dual-port SRAM. The industrial temperature grade variant functions between -40°C and +85°C, with a maximum operating frequency of 231 MHz.

Field Programmable Gate Array Feature Summary

• Non-volatile flash-based architecture enabling instant-on functionality without external configuration memory.
• Supports mixed-voltage I/O standards including LVDS, LVTTL, and LVCMOS for flexible interface integration.
• Integrated true dual-port SRAM blocks facilitate data buffering and processing tasks.

Field Programmable Gate Array Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring reliable non-volatile programmability.
• Telecommunications infrastructure utilizing high-speed differential signaling.
• Automotive electronics operating within extended temperature ranges.

Field Programmable Gate Array Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I' confirms the industrial temperature rating (-40°C to +85°C) against the commercial variant. Confirm RoHS compliance status as historical Actel/Microchip documentation may vary. Ensure the FBGA-144 footprint matches the target PCB design constraints. Check for any export control classifications or moisture sensitivity level requirements during handling.

Field Programmable Gate Array Selection Notes

Select this component when non-vatile configuration and low static power are required compared to SRAM-based FPGAs. Compare gate density and I/O count against the AGL1000V2 series if lower power consumption is critical. Verify that the 144-pin package fits the available board space. Consider the A3P1000-FGG144M if military temperature qualification is necessary instead of industrial grade.

Field Programmable Gate Array Part Context

This part belongs to the ProASIC3 Flash family, which bridges the gap between ASICs and traditional SRAM-based FPGAs. It utilizes Microchip's proprietary flash technology to provide immediate operation upon power-up. The FG144 package offers a compact solution for medium-density logic applications while maintaining compatibility with standard surface-mount assembly processes.

Field Programmable Gate Array Replacement Considerations

The A3P1000-FG144M serves as the military-grade equivalent with an extended temperature range of -55°C to +125°C. For lower power requirements, the AGL1000V2 series offers similar gate counts with different power characteristics. Direct pin-to-pin replacements from other manufacturers are not guaranteed due to architectural differences in configuration and I/O standards.
