AFS600-1PQG208I

Overview

The AFS600-1PQG208I is a Fusion mixed-signal FPGA featuring 600,000 system gates and 13,824 tiles. It utilizes an advanced 130-nm flash-based CMOS process for nonvolatile configuration. The device supports a 350 MHz system performance with input frequencies of 1.5–350 MHz and outputs of 0.75–350 MHz via six clock conditioning circuits. It includes 4 Mbits of user flash memory and 1 Kbit of FlashROM. The integrated ADC offers up to 12-bit resolution at 600 Ksps across 30 scalable analog channels. Digital I/Os support mixed voltages (1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V) with up to 172 maximum digital I/Os in the PQG208 package. Operating temperature range is -40°C to +100°C.

Feature Summary

• Instant On capability due to nonvolatile flash technology eliminating external boot PROM requirements
• Integrated mixed-signal architecture combining high-performance FPGA fabric with analog peripherals
• Advanced security features including FlashLock and 128-bit AES encryption for IP protection
• Single-chip solution with on-chip voltage regulator supporting single 3.3 V power supply operation

Applications

• Power management and smart battery charging systems
• Clock generation and management applications
• Motor control systems requiring mixed-signal processing
• System supervisor and management functions

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'I' confirms the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +100°C). Confirm the package type PQG208 corresponds to the Plastic Quad Flat Pack with 208 leads. Ensure the speed grade '1' matches the required timing constraints for your design. Check for RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to your deployment.

Selection Notes

Select this model when 600,000 system gates are sufficient for the logic density requirements. Choose the industrial temperature variant if the operating environment exceeds commercial limits. Verify that the 172 available digital I/Os meet interface needs. Consider the integrated ADC and gate drivers if analog monitoring or MOSFET control is required to reduce bill-of-materials.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Microsemi Fusion family of mixed-signal FPGAs. It shares the core VersaTile architecture and analog peripheral blocks with other devices like the AFS250 and AFS1500. The PQG208 package is pin-compatible within the family where applicable, though the AFS250 and AFS600 differ in pinout for this specific package. It represents a mid-range density option in the Fusion portfolio.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements within the same package include other AFS600 variants with different speed grades or temperature ratings. Cross-family migration to ProASIC3L or ProASIC3E requires retargeting as they lack the integrated analog peripherals and mixed-signal capabilities.
