A3P1000-PQ208

The A3P1000-PQ208 is a ProASIC3 Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC from Microchip Technology. It provides on-chip logic, memory and I/O density in a 208-BFQFP package for commercial embedded designs.

With 24,576 logic elements, approximately 0.15 Mbits of embedded memory (147,456 bits), and 154 user I/O pins, this device is suited to applications that require moderate gate count, flexible I/O and low-voltage operation (1.425 V to 1.575 V).

Key Features

• Core Logic  24,576 logic elements providing a total of 1,000,000 gates for implementing custom digital functions and glue logic.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 0.15 Mbits of on-chip RAM (147,456 bits) for local buffering and state storage.
• I/O  154 user I/O pins to support multi-signal interfaces and peripheral connectivity within a single device.
• Power  Low-voltage supply range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V to match modern system power domains.
• Package & Mounting  208-BFQFP package (supplier device package: 208-PQFP, 28×28) in a surface-mount form factor for compact board designs.
• Operating Range & Grade  Commercial grade device specified for an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Compliance  RoHS compliant for environmentally conscious product designs.

Typical Applications

• Embedded systems  Implement custom control logic, protocol translation, or glue logic where a moderate number of I/O and on-chip resources are required.
• Interface bridging  Aggregate and route signals between subsystems using the device’s 154 I/O pins and programmable logic fabric.
• Prototyping and evaluation  Develop and validate digital designs that need up to 24,576 logic elements and embedded memory before production deployment.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced integration: Combines a significant logic element count with embedded memory and abundant I/O to reduce external components and simplify board-level design.
• Low-voltage operation: 1.425 V to 1.575 V supply range aligns with modern power domains and can simplify system power architecture.
• Compact surface-mount package: 208-BFQFP (208-PQFP, 28×28) footprint enables dense PCB layouts while maintaining a large I/O count.
• Commercial temperature rating: Specified 0 °C to 85 °C operation for typical commercial embedded applications.
• RoHS compliant: Designed to meet environmental compliance requirements for lead-free manufacturing.
