A3PN030-ZQNG48I

Overview

The A3PN030-ZQNG48I is a ProASIC3 nano Flash Field Programmable Gate Array manufactured by Microchip Technology. It features 768 Configurable Logic Blocks and approximately 30,000 system gates. The device operates with a supply voltage range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V and supports up to 49 user I/Os. It is housed in a 48-VFQFN package with exposed pad and functions within an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +100°C TJ.

Feature Summary

• Non-volatile Flash-based architecture enabling instant-on functionality without external configuration memory.
• Support for mixed-voltage I/O standards including LVTTL and LVCMOS at various voltage levels.
• Integrated PLL blocks providing configurable phase-shift and frequency multiplication capabilities.

Applications

• Low-pin-count logic replacement and glue logic applications.
• Simple state machine implementations requiring non-volatile configuration.
• Interface bridging between components operating at different voltage levels.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'Z' against official Microchip documentation to confirm environmental compliance or lead-free status. Ensure the QNG48 package designation matches the required footprint and thermal characteristics for the target PCB design. Cross-reference the full part number with current datasheets to confirm availability and any recent design changes.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a small form factor FPGA with instant-on capability is required. The ProASIC3 nano family offers lower gate counts compared to standard ProASIC3 devices, making it suitable for cost-sensitive and space-constrained designs. Verify that the 49 I/O limit and 30k gate capacity meet the specific logic density requirements of the application.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Microchip ProASIC3 nano Flash FPGA family, which bridges the gap between discrete logic and larger FPGAs. It utilizes Flash technology for non-volatile storage, eliminating the need for boot PROMs. The family includes variants with optional Soft ARM processor cores, though the base A3PN030 focuses on pure logic implementation.
