Feature Summary

• Flash-based non-volatile architecture enabling instant-on operation without external configuration memory.
• Supports mixed-voltage I/O standards including 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V for flexible interface compatibility.
• Includes Configurable Clocking Blocks (CCC) with Phase-Locked Loops for advanced clock management.

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring low power consumption and instant startup.
• Consumer electronics utilizing mixed-voltage interfaces.
• Automotive infotainment and body control modules operating in extended temperature ranges.

Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number suffix, as variants such as -2VQ100I indicate specific temperature grades and packaging. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level requirements before ordering. Check for available engineering samples if design validation is required prior to full production deployment.

Selection Notes

Select this model for applications needing moderate logic density with flash-based reprogrammability. Ensure the 100-pin VQFP package fits the board layout constraints. Compare against the A3PN060-Z2VQ100I if an industrial temperature range up to 100°C is necessary instead of the commercial grade specified here.

Part Context

This component belongs to the ProASIC3 nano family, designed for cost-sensitive and power-efficient programmable logic applications. It bridges the gap between simple PLDs and complex FPGAs, offering flash technology advantages over SRAM-based counterparts in terms of security and simplicity.

Replacement Considerations

The A3PN060-Z2VQ100I serves as a verified alternative with an extended temperature range up to 100°C. Other family members like A3PN015 or A3PN020 offer lower gate counts but share pin compatibility within specific package types.
