Field Programmable Gate Array Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized Microchip distributors or certified agents. Confirm RoHS compliance status as indicated in official datasheets, noting that specific variants may not meet current environmental directives. Ensure proper handling procedures are followed due to moisture sensitivity classification.

Field Programmable Gate Array Selection Notes

Select this model when 1.5 million system gates and 444 I/Os are required in a 676-ball FBGA package. Ensure design constraints align with the 1.425 V to 1.575 V power supply range and -40°C to +85°C operating temperature limits. Verify pinout compatibility if replacing legacy Actel components.

Field Programmable Gate Array Part Context

This component belongs to the ProASIC3E FPGA family, which bridges the gap between ASICs and standard FPGAs. The series offers non-volatile flash-based technology with low power consumption. The A3PE1500 variant specifically targets applications needing substantial logic density with flexible I/O configurations.

Field Programmable Gate Array Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other packages within the same gate count family, such as the M1A3PE1500-2FG676I. Cross-referencing with legacy Actel part numbers is necessary for older designs. Verify electrical parameters match before substitution.
