A3PE1500-FGG484I

The A3PE1500-FGG484I is a ProASIC3E Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) from Microchip Technology, provided in a 484-ball FBGA package. It offers a balance of logic density, embedded memory, and I/O for industrial-grade embedded designs.

With 38,400 logic elements, approximately 276 kbits of on-chip RAM, and 280 user I/O, this device targets industrial applications that require mid-range programmable logic capacity in a compact surface-mount package.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity  38,400 logic elements (LEs) equivalent to approximately 1,500,000 gates, enabling implementation of moderate-complexity digital systems.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 276,480 bits of on-chip RAM to support data buffering, small LUT-based memories, and control state storage.
• I/O Density  280 general-purpose I/O pins provide ample external connectivity for sensors, peripherals, and board-level interfaces.
• Voltage Supply  Operates from a core supply range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V, specified for stable core operation within that window.
• Package & Mounting  484-FPBGA (23×23) package, 484-ball BGA footprint, designed for surface-mount PCB assembly in compact layouts.
• Industrial Temperature Range  Specified operating range of −40 °C to 100 °C for deployment in temperature-challenging environments.
• Environmental Compliance  RoHS compliant for lead-free manufacturing and regulatory alignment.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control & Automation  Use the device for programmable control logic, I/O aggregation, and protocol bridging where industrial temperature operation is required.
• Embedded System Integration  Integrate custom glue logic and peripheral interfaces in compact, surface-mounted designs with significant I/O needs.
• Signal Processing and Control  Implement mid-level real-time control and data handling functions using the device’s logic capacity and on-chip RAM.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory:  38,400 logic elements combined with approximately 276 kbits of RAM supports a wide range of mid-complexity designs without external memory for many functions.
• High I/O Count:  280 available I/O pins enable direct interfacing to numerous peripherals and sensors, reducing the need for external I/O expanders.
• Industrial-Grade Operation:  Specified for −40 °C to 100 °C operation, suitable for industrial environments with broader temperature demands.
• Compact BGA Footprint:  484-FPBGA (23×23) provides a space-efficient package for high-density board layouts while supporting surface-mount assembly.
• Clear Power Specification:  Defined core supply range (1.425 V–1.575 V) simplifies power system design and margin planning.
• Regulatory Compliance:  RoHS compliance supports lead-free manufacturing and environmental requirements.
