A3P125-QNG132I

Field Programmable Gate Array Overview

The A3P125-QNG132I is a ProASIC3 Flash FPGA featuring 30,000 system gates and 768 configurable logic blocks. It operates at a maximum clock frequency of 350 MHz within an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +100°C. The device utilizes a QN132 package with 132 pins, measuring 8 mm by 8 mm with a 0.50 mm pitch. Key specifications include up to 36 kbits of embedded SRAM, 1 kbit of nonvolatile FlashROM, and support for mixed-voltage I/O standards ranging from 1.5 V to 3.3 V.

Field Programmable Gate Array Feature Summary

• Nonvolatile flash-based architecture providing instant-on capability without external boot PROMs.
• Integrated security features including AES decryption and FlashLock for intellectual property protection.
• Flexible I/O structure supporting mixed-voltage operation across multiple banks.

Field Programmable Gate Array Applications

• Secure in-system programming and remote field updates
• Industrial control systems requiring instant-on functionality
• Embedded memory applications using on-chip FlashROM

Field Programmable Gate Array Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'I' confirms the industrial temperature rating (-40°C to +100°C) and that 'QN132' denotes the quad flat no-lead package. Confirm RoHS compliance status as packaging variations may exist. Ensure design files are compatible with the Libero SoC software suite for this specific density level.

Field Programmable Gate Array Selection Notes

Select this component when nonvolatile configuration and instant-on performance are required without external memory. The 30,000 gate capacity suits moderate complexity logic designs. Verify that the 132-pin QN132 footprint meets board space constraints and that the industrial temperature grade aligns with environmental operating conditions.

Field Programmable Gate Array Part Context

This part belongs to the Microsemi ProASIC3 Flash family, which bridges the gap between CPLDs and high-density FPGAs. It offers ASIC-level unit costs with FPGA reprogrammability. The A3P125 variant provides a balance of logic density and I/O count, making it suitable for cost-sensitive applications needing secure, low-power programmable logic.

Field Programmable Gate Array Replacement Considerations

Check for pin-compatible packages within the A3P125 series, such as FG144 or PQ208, if different form factors are needed. Higher density devices like A3P250 offer more resources but require verification of power and thermal requirements. Lower density options like A3P060 may suffice if logic utilization permits.
