Field Programmable Gate Array Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'FG676I' matches the required 676-ball FBGA package and industrial temperature grade. Confirm RoHS compliance status as historical batches may vary. Check for active PCNs regarding software tool updates or manufacturing site changes before finalizing orders.

Field Programmable Gate Array Selection Notes

Select this model when 1.5M gate density and an integrated processor are needed in a BGA form factor. Compare against M1A3PE1500 variants if higher speed grades or different pin counts are required. Ensure design tools support the ProASIC3 family architecture for successful implementation.

Field Programmable Gate Array Part Context

This component belongs to the ProASIC3 family, bridging ASIC performance with FPGA flexibility. It targets applications needing low power consumption and non-volatile configuration without external memory. The FG676 variant provides high I/O count for system-level integration.

Field Programmable Gate Array Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include M1A3PE1500-FG676I for updated manufacturing versions. A3PE1500-2FG676I offers a higher speed grade within the same package. Verify pinout compatibility and timing constraints when migrating between these related part numbers.
