A3P250-FGG256

The A3P250-FGG256 is a ProASIC3 Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC from Microchip Technology. It provides 6,144 logic elements and approximately 36,864 bits of embedded RAM in a 256-LBGA (256-FPBGA, 17×17) surface-mount package.

This commercial-grade FPGA offers a balance of gate density, on-chip memory and I/O count for programmable logic applications that require a defined supply voltage range and standard commercial operating temperature.

Key Features

• Core Capacity  6,144 logic elements and approximately 250,000 gates provide the device’s programmable logic resources for implementing custom logic functions.
• Embedded Memory  36,864 bits of on-chip RAM for buffering, small FIFOs or lookup tables.
• I/O Count  157 general-purpose I/O pins to support diverse interfacing requirements.
• Package & Mounting  256-LBGA (supplier device package: 256-FPBGA, 17×17) in a surface-mount form factor for compact PCB designs.
• Power  Specified supply voltage range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V for core operation.
• Operating Temperature & Grade  Commercial-grade device rated for 0 °C to 85 °C ambient operation.
• Compliance  RoHS-compliant manufacturing status.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced logic density: 6,144 logic elements combined with 250,000 gates support mid-range programmable designs without overspecifying capacity.
• On-chip memory for control tasks: 36,864 bits of embedded RAM enable local buffering and small data storage without external RAM.
• Generous I/O connectivity: 157 I/O pins allow flexible interfacing to peripherals, sensors and other system components.
• Compact BGA footprint: 256-LBGA (17×17) package provides a high-pin-count solution in a compact surface-mount package suitable for space-constrained PCBs.
• Defined electrical and thermal envelope: Explicit supply voltage range (1.425–1.575 V) and commercial temperature rating (0 °C–85 °C) simplify system-level power and thermal planning.
• RoHS compliance: Meets common regulatory requirements for lead-free assembly and environmental considerations.
