AFS600-1PQG208

Overview

The Microsemi AFS600-1PQG208 is a Field Programmable Gate Array featuring 600,000 system gates and 13,824 tiles. It utilizes an advanced 130-nm, 7-layer metal flash-based CMOS process for nonvolatile configuration. The device supports a maximum system performance frequency of 350 MHz with input frequencies ranging from 1.5 to 350 MHz and output frequencies from 0.75 to 350 MHz. It operates on a single 3.3 V power supply with an integrated 1.5 V regulator. The package is a Plastic Quad Flat Pack (PQ) with 208 leads in a PQG208 configuration.

Feature Summary

• Instant On capability due to nonvolatile flash technology that retains program data when powered off without external boot PROMs.
• Integrated mixed-signal analog peripherals including a 12-bit ADC with up to 600 Ksps sampling rate and high-voltage tolerant inputs.
• Advanced security features utilizing FlashLock and 128-bit AES encryption via JTAG for secure in-system programming.
• Low power consumption architecture supporting sleep and standby modes with operation from a single 3.3 V supply.

Applications

• Power management systems
• Smart battery charging applications
• Clock generation and management circuits
• Motor control systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific speed grade and temperature range requirements against the datasheet matrix before ordering. Confirm that the PQG208 package availability aligns with current production status. Ensure design tools support the Fusion family architecture for proper implementation.

Selection Notes

Select this model for designs requiring high-density logic combined with analog signal processing capabilities. Consider the 350 MHz performance limit for timing closure. Evaluate the embedded memory size relative to application storage needs.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Fusion family of mixed-signal FPGAs manufactured by Microsemi. It shares architectural similarities with other devices in the series such as the AFS250 and AFS1500, differing primarily in gate count and resource allocation.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible pin-out alternatives within the same package include the AFS250 or AFS1500 variants, provided their logic density meets the design requirements. Verify electrical characteristics and speed grades match the original specification.
