Overview of A3P400-2FG256 – ProASIC3 Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC 178 55296 256-LBGA
The A3P400-2FG256 is a ProASIC3 family FPGA in a 256-LBGA package designed for commercial electronic designs that require reconfigurable logic and a sizable I/O count. It provides 9,216 logic elements, approximately 55,296 bits of on-chip RAM and 178 I/O in a surface-mount 256-FPBGA (17×17) package.
Operating from a 1.425 V to 1.575 V supply and rated for 0 °C to 85 °C, this RoHS-compliant device targets commercial-grade applications where moderate-density logic, on-chip memory and a high pin count are required.
Key Features
- Core Logic 9,216 logic elements (LEs) and approximately 400,000 gates provide programmable combinational and sequential resources for custom logic implementation.
- On-chip Memory Approximately 55,296 bits of total RAM for embedded data storage and buffering within the FPGA fabric.
- I/O Capacity 178 I/O pins support extensive external interfacing and signal routing for multi-peripheral designs.
- Power and Supply Single voltage supply range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V for the core, enabling defined power planning in system designs.
- Package and Mounting 256-LBGA / 256-FPBGA (17×17) package in a surface-mount form factor for compact board integration.
- Environmental and Grade Commercial grade device with RoHS compliance and an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C.
Typical Applications
- Commercial Embedded Systems Use the device where moderate-density programmable logic and on-chip RAM are needed to implement control, timing or custom processing functions within commercial equipment.
- Prototyping and Development Suitable for development platforms and proof-of-concept designs that require up to 9,216 logic elements and significant I/O for external peripherals.
- Peripheral and I/O Bridging Leverage 178 I/O pins to implement interface bridging, protocol conversion or multi-sensor aggregation in compact systems.
Unique Advantages
- Balanced Logic Density: 9,216 logic elements deliver a mid-range capacity for implementing complex finite-state machines, datapaths and glue logic without over-sizing the solution.
- On-Chip Memory for Local Storage: Approximately 55,296 bits of RAM enable buffering and small data-store needs directly in the FPGA fabric, reducing external memory dependencies.
- High I/O Count: 178 available I/O pins support broad connectivity to peripherals, sensors and external interfaces within a single package.
- Compact Surface-Mount Package: 256-LBGA / 256-FPBGA (17×17) packaging enables dense board layouts while maintaining a high pin count for system integration.
- Commercial Temperature Rating: Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C to match typical commercial electronic product environments.
- Regulatory Hygiene: RoHS-compliant construction supports regulatory requirements for lead-free assembly and environmental considerations.
