A3PN125-Z2VQ100

Overview

The A3PN125-Z2VQ100 is a ProASIC3 nano Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) manufactured by Microchip Technology. It features 1,500 logic elements and 71 I/O pins within a 100-VQFP package. The device operates on a core voltage range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V and supports a maximum frequency of 350 MHz. It includes 36,864 bits of embedded RAM and functions within an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +100°C.

Feature Summary

• Flash-based non-volatile architecture enabling instant-on functionality without external configuration memory.
• Supports mixed-voltage I/O standards including LVCMOS and LVTTL for flexible system interfacing.
• Integrated true dual-port SRAM for efficient data buffering and processing tasks.

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring reliable programmable logic.
• Automotive electronics operating in harsh thermal environments.
• Communication interface adapters and protocol converters.

Procurement Notes

Verify the suffix Z2 against official Microchip documentation to confirm specific environmental or reliability qualifications. Ensure compatibility with existing design files before procurement. Confirm RoHS status and moisture sensitivity level requirements for your assembly process.

Selection Notes

Select this model when instant-on capability and low power consumption are critical. Compare logic density and I/O count against standard ProASIC3 variants if higher capacity is needed. Verify that the 100-VQFP package fits the available PCB footprint and thermal constraints.

Part Context

This component belongs to the ProASIC3 nano family, designed for cost-sensitive applications requiring flash FPGA technology. It offers a balance of moderate logic density and low power consumption compared to larger ProASIC3 devices.

Replacement Considerations

Check Microchip's official obsolescence notices for potential end-of-life status. Consider the A3PN125-2VQG100 or A3PN125-1VQ100I as alternative packages within the same series if pinout compatibility allows.
