AFS1500-1FGG484I

Overview

The AFS1500-1FGG484I is a Fusion FPGA from Microchip Technology, featuring 1.5 million system gates and packaged in a 484-pin FBGA. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V, with a nominal voltage of 1.5 V. The device supports an industrial temperature range from -40°C to +85°C and includes 223 I/Os. It utilizes non-volatile Flash technology for instant-on configuration without external memory requirements.

Feature Summary

• Instant-on capability via embedded non-volatile Flash configuration eliminates the need for external configuration devices.
• Integrated mixed-signal capabilities including high-speed analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and digital isolators.
• Supports secure boot and data encryption through integrated hardware security features.

Applications

• Industrial automation controllers requiring reliable instant-on operation.
• Medical equipment needing integrated isolation and mixed-signal processing.
• Automotive infotainment systems utilizing secure boot mechanisms.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I' confirms the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +85°C). Confirm package details match the 484-pin FBGA form factor. Check for any recent Product Change Notifications (PCN) regarding manufacturing site or material composition changes. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives as specified in the official datasheet.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high gate density is required alongside built-in Flash configuration. Compare against ProASIC3 or IGLOO2 families if lower power or different I/O counts are needed. Verify that the 223 I/O count meets interface requirements. Consider the 1.5V core voltage for power budget calculations.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Microchip Fusion FPGA family, which combines ASIC-like performance with FPGA flexibility. It is designed for applications demanding low power consumption and immediate operational readiness. The 1.5M gate count positions it for complex logic control and signal processing tasks.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitutes include the M1AFS1500-FGG484K for ARM Cortex-M1 integration or the A3PE1500-1FGG484I for standard FlashFPGA needs. Verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications before substitution.
