A54SX08-2VQ100I

Overview

The Microsemi A54SX08-2VQ100I is an antifuse-based Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) belonging to the SX-A family. It provides 12,000 system gates and supports up to 113 user-programmable I/O pins within a 100-pin Thin Quad Flat Pack (TQFP) package. The device operates at a maximum system frequency of 250 MHz with internal performance reaching 350 MHz. It features mixed-voltage I/O support for 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V standards, including PCI compliance. The component is rated for industrial temperature applications ranging from -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Supports hot-swap operations and power-up/down without supply voltage sequencing requirements.
• Features deterministic timing through metal-to-metal programmable antifuse interconnect technology.
• Includes IEEE 1149.1 compliant Boundary-Scan Testing capabilities for diagnostic verification.

Applications

• High-performance logic integration requiring nonvolatile single-chip solutions.
• Systems utilizing mixed-voltage I/O standards such as 3.3 V/5 V PCI or 5 V TTL.
• Industrial control environments necessitating extended temperature range operation.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official documentation to confirm package type and temperature grade. Confirm RoHS compliance status if required by assembly specifications. Ensure design tools are compatible with the SX-A architecture prior to procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model for designs requiring approximately 12,000 system gates with high-speed performance. Consider the TQFP package constraints regarding pin count and thermal dissipation. Evaluate the need for industrial temperature ratings versus commercial options based on environmental conditions.

Part Context

This component is part of the Actel SX-A FPGA family, which utilizes antifuse technology for permanent configuration. The SX-A series is designed for low-power, high-density applications, offering a cost-effective alternative to complex CPLDs and gate arrays in embedded systems.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official datasheets for cross-reference information. Verify compatibility with existing PCB footprints and electrical characteristics when considering alternative packages or speed grades within the same family.
