A3PN060-Z1VQ100

Overview

The A3PN060-Z1VQ100 is a ProASIC3 nano Flash Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) manufactured by Microchip Technology. It features 71 user I/Os and 18,432 bits of embedded RAM within a 100-VQFP package. The device operates on a core supply voltage ranging from 1.425V to 1.575V and supports an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +100°C. It utilizes a 130nm flash-based CMOS process, providing instant-on capabilities and non-volatile configuration retention.

Feature Summary

• Instant-on capability with zero boot time due to non-volatile flash technology
• Support for mixed-voltage I/O standards including 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.5V, and 3.3V
• Integrated Clock Conditioning Circuitry (CCC) blocks with phase shift and frequency multiplication

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring instant power-up functionality
• Embedded logic interfaces in automotive environments
• Secure communication gateways utilizing AES decryption

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix Z1 against official Microchip documentation to confirm the exact temperature grade and package variant. Ensure compatibility with existing board layouts regarding the 100-VQFP footprint and pin assignments before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when instant-on operation is critical and low power consumption at 1.5V is required. Compare against the A3PN060 family for pin-compatible alternatives if different I/O counts or memory sizes are needed.

Part Context

This part belongs to the ProASIC3 nano series, designed for low-power, high-density applications. It bridges the gap between ASICs and standard FPGAs by offering reprogrammability with flash-based non-volatility.

Replacement Considerations

Check for A3PN060-VQG100I as a potential pin-compatible alternative, verifying that the commercial temperature grade meets system requirements.
