Overview of 5962-0151801QXC – SX-A FPGA, 203 I/Os, 256‑BFCQFP
The 5962-0151801QXC is a Microchip Technology SX-A family field programmable gate array (FPGA) supplied in a 256‑BFCQFP package with tie bar. It provides reprogrammable logic and flexible I/O in a nonvolatile single‑chip FPGA architecture suited to applications that require wide voltage support and extended temperature operation.
With 2,880 logic elements and approximately 48,000 gates, 203 user I/Os, and military temperature grading, this device targets high-reliability embedded applications where robust operation, configurable I/O standards, and in-system testability are required.
Key Features
- Logic and Capacity 2,880 logic elements and approximately 48,000 system gates provide on‑chip reprogrammable logic resources for mid‑density designs.
- I/O Count and Flexibility 203 user I/O pins with configurable I/O support for multiple voltage standards enable mixed‑voltage interfacing and legacy bus support.
- Voltage Supply Range Wide supply range of 2.25 V to 5.25 V supports mixed‑voltage system architectures and I/O compatibility across common logic families.
- Performance (Series‑Level) SX-A family performance metrics include up to 250 MHz system performance and up to 350 MHz internal performance (series data).
- Packaging and Mechanical 256‑BFCQFP package with tie bar; supplier device package listed as 256‑CQFP (75×75), suitable for surface‑mount assembly.
- Temperature and Grade Military grade device with operating temperature range from −55 °C to 125 °C for demanding environments.
- Power and I/O Robustness Hot‑swap compliant I/Os and power‑up/power‑down friendly behavior reduce system sequencing constraints.
- Security and Test Series features include nonvolatile single‑chip configuration, Actel Secure Programming Technology (FuseLock™) for IP protection, boundary‑scan (IEEE 1149.1) support, and in‑system diagnostic capabilities.
Typical Applications
- Defense and Aerospace Systems Military temperature grading (−55 °C to 125 °C) and robust packaging make this FPGA suitable for avionics, mission electronics, and other defense applications requiring extended temperature operation.
- Mixed‑Voltage Interface and Bus Bridging Configurable I/O standards and wide supply range support PCI and TTL interfaces, enabling bridging between 5 V and lower‑voltage logic domains.
- Secure & Testable Embedded Designs Integrated secure programming and boundary‑scan support allow protected firmware deployment and efficient board‑level testing and diagnostics.
Unique Advantages
- Military‑grade thermal performance: Guaranteed operation from −55 °C to 125 °C addresses high‑reliability deployment needs.
- Flexible I/O and power tolerance: 2.25–5.25 V supply and configurable I/O standards simplify integration with mixed‑voltage subsystems and legacy interfaces.
- On‑chip nonvolatile configuration: Single‑chip nonvolatile architecture eliminates separate configuration memory and simplifies system startup behavior.
- Built‑in security and test features: FuseLock™ programming protection, JTAG boundary‑scan, and in‑system diagnostics support secure development and maintainability.
- Mid‑density logic with substantial I/O: 2,880 logic elements paired with 203 I/Os balance on‑chip logic capacity and external connectivity for compact embedded designs.
