A3PN030-Z2VQ100

Overview

The A3PN030-Z2VQ100 is a ProASIC3 nano series Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) manufactured by Microchip Technology. It features 30,000 system gates and supports up to 71 user I/Os. The device includes 36 kbits of True Dual-Port SRAM for data storage. It operates on a core supply voltage ranging from 1.425 V to 1.575 V. The component is housed in a 100-VQFP package with dimensions of 14x14 mm. It supports mixed-voltage I/O operation at 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V levels. The industrial temperature range extends from -40°C to +100°C TJ.

Feature Summary

• Instant On Level 0 support enables immediate system operation upon power-up without external configuration memory.
• Flash-based CMOS process retains programmed design data when powered off, eliminating the need for volatile configuration devices.
• Supports mixed-voltage I/O standards including LVTTL and LVCMOS across multiple banks for flexible interface integration.

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring non-volatile logic and instant-on capabilities
• Communication infrastructure interfaces utilizing mixed-voltage signaling
• Embedded systems needing low-power reprogrammable logic with retained configuration

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix Z2 against official Microchip documentation to confirm package variant and temperature grade accuracy. Ensure compatibility with existing board layouts for the 100-VQFP footprint. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current manufacturer declarations prior to procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model for applications demanding non-volatile FPGA functionality with moderate logic density. Compare total gate counts and SRAM capacity against alternative ProASIC3 variants to ensure sufficient resources. Validate that the 100-pin QFP package fits within the mechanical constraints of the target enclosure.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Microchip ProASIC3 nano family, which utilizes a 130-nm flash process technology. The family provides a balance of performance and power efficiency for embedded logic applications. It serves as a drop-in replacement for many ASIC designs requiring field programmability.

Replacement Considerations

Check for pin-compatible upgrades within the ProASIC3 family such as the A3PN060 or A3PN125 if higher logic density is required. Verify that any substitute maintains the same 100-VQFP package and voltage specifications to ensure board compatibility.
