A3P600L-1PQ208I

Field Programmable Gate Array Overview

The A3P600L-1PQ208I is a ProASIC3L Flash Field Programmable Gate Array manufactured by Microsemi Corporation. It features 13,824 configurable logic blocks and approximately 600,000 equivalent system gates. The device operates with a maximum clock frequency of 250 MHz and supports a core voltage range of 1.14 V to 1.575 V. It includes 110,592 bits of embedded true dual-port SRAM and offers 154 user I/Os. The component is housed in a 208-pin PQFP package and is rated for an industrial operating temperature range from -40 °C to +85 °C.

Field Programmable Gate Array Feature Summary

• Flash-based non-volatile architecture enabling live-at-power-up operation without external configuration memory.
• Integrated low-power Flash*Freeze mode allowing instantaneous entry and exit from low-power states.
• Supports mixed-voltage I/O banks including 3.3 V, 2.5 V, 1.8 V, and 1.5 V standards.

Field Programmable Gate Array Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring instant-on functionality
• Space-constrained embedded designs utilizing the 208-pin PQFP package
• Low-power applications leveraging Flash*Freeze technology

Field Programmable Gate Array Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I' confirms the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +85°C). Confirm the package type matches the 208-pin PQFP requirement. Check RoHS compliance status as older revisions may differ. Ensure the source document explicitly lists this part number to avoid confusion with similar ProASIC3 variants.

Field Programmable Gate Array Selection Notes

Select this model when non-volatile flash technology is required to eliminate external configuration devices. The 250 MHz speed grade is suitable for moderate-performance logic applications. Verify that the 154 available I/O pins meet interface requirements and that the 1.5 V core voltage aligns with the target power supply design.

Field Programmable Gate Array Part Context

This component belongs to the ProASIC3L family, which focuses on low-power consumption compared to standard ProASIC3 devices. The 'L' designation indicates optimized power characteristics, while the '600' denotes the gate count capacity. It serves as a mid-range solution within the flash FPGA portfolio.

Field Programmable Gate Array Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements within the same package include other ProASIC3L parts such as A3P060 or A3P250, provided the logic density meets design needs. Cross-family migration to ProASIC3 (non-L) requires voltage adjustment verification.
