Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'B' against official Microsemi documentation to confirm package material and pin configuration details. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives if required for the target application. Check for end-of-life status or discontinuance notifications prior to procurement planning.

Selection Notes

Select this model when 16000 gate capacity and 205 MHz performance are sufficient. Compare against the A54SX16A series for updated process nodes or extended temperature ranges. Verify I/O voltage requirements match the 3.3V or 5V operation capabilities specified in the datasheet.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Microsemi SX FPGA family, designed for low-power, high-density applications. It integrates nonvolatile configuration memory, allowing single-chip deployment without external configuration devices. The family supports both 3.3V and 5V I/O standards.
