Field Programmable Gate Array Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I' confirms the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +85°C) against the official datasheet. Confirm the package type matches the required FBGA-484 footprint. Ensure RoHS compliance status aligns with project requirements as indicated in manufacturer documentation.

Field Programmable Gate Array Selection Notes

Select this component when 1.5 million system gates are necessary for the design. Verify that the 350 MHz speed grade meets timing constraints. Ensure the board layout accommodates the FBGA-484 package dimensions and pitch specifications provided in the mechanical drawings.

Field Programmable Gate Array Part Context

This part belongs to the Microchip ProASIC3 family, which bridges the gap between ASICs and standard FPGAs. It offers non-volatile flash-based technology, providing instant-on functionality and higher density than earlier Actel devices while maintaining low power consumption characteristics typical of anti-fuse architectures.

Field Programmable Gate Array Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other variants within the A3PE1500 series such as A3PE1500-1FG484I or A3PE1500-2FG484I, depending on required speed grades. Cross-family migration to M1A3PE1500 requires verification of pinout and feature compatibility.
