A3P400-PQ208I

The A3P400-PQ208I is a ProASIC3 field programmable gate array (FPGA) from Microchip Technology. It integrates 9,216 logic elements (approximately 400,000 gates) with on-chip embedded memory and a broad set of I/O in a 208-pin BFQFP surface-mount package.

Designed for industrial use, this device offers an industrial-grade operating range and RoHS compliance, along with a defined supply voltage window for deterministic power design.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity  9,216 logic elements providing approximately 400,000 gates for implementing custom digital logic and control functions.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 55,296 bits of on-chip RAM to support buffering, small FIFOs, and state storage without external memory.
• I/O and Package  151 I/O pins in a 208-pin BFQFP (208-PQFP, 28×28) surface-mount package to maximize connectivity in a compact footprint.
• Power  Specified supply voltage range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V for predictable power budgeting and design integration.
• Industrial-Grade Temperature  Rated for operation from −40°C to 100°C to meet industrial-environment requirements.
• Mounting and Compliance  Surface-mount package with RoHS compliance for modern assembly processes and environmental requirements.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control  Leverages industrial-grade temperature rating and robust logic capacity for control, sequencing, and interface glue in factory and process automation equipment.
• Embedded System Integration  Combines logic elements and on-chip RAM to implement custom peripherals, protocol handling, and feature offloads in compact embedded designs.
• Communications and I/O Aggregation  Provides a high count of I/O and programmable logic for aggregating, routing, or preprocessing signals in communications and instrumentation hardware.

Unique Advantages

• High logic density: 9,216 logic elements and roughly 400,000 gates enable substantial custom digital logic in a single device, reducing the need for multiple discrete ASSPs.
• On-chip memory for buffering: Approximately 55,296 bits of embedded RAM support local data storage and low-latency buffering without external memory components.
• Compact, serviceable package: 208-BFQFP surface-mount package (28×28) balances pin count and board-area efficiency for space-constrained designs.
• Industrial temperature range: Rated −40°C to 100°C to support deployments in environments requiring extended temperature performance.
• Controlled supply window: Narrow supply range (1.425 V–1.575 V) simplifies power supply selection and margin planning.
• RoHS compliant: Meets environmental regulations for lead-free assembly processes.
