A3PE3000-PQG208

The A3PE3000-PQG208 is a ProASIC3E family Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) from Microchip Technology. It provides a high-density programmable logic fabric with substantial on-chip memory and I/O to support complex system integration.

With 75,264 logic elements, approximately 0.516 Mbits of embedded memory, 147 I/O pins and a 3,000,000-gate equivalent, this surface-mount FPGA in a 208-BFQFP package is suited to designs that require significant logic capacity and compact packaging within a commercial temperature range.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity  75,264 logic elements provide a high level of configurable logic for implementing complex digital functions and control logic.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 0.516 Mbits of on-chip RAM for data buffering, state storage, and small lookup tables.
• I/O Count  147 general-purpose I/O pins to interface with external devices, sensors, and peripherals.
• Gate Equivalent  3,000,000 gates of logic density to support large-scale integration of custom digital functions.
• Power and Supply  Operates from a nominal supply range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V, enabling predictable board-level power design.
• Package and Mounting  Supplied in a 208-BFQFP surface-mount package (supplier package: 208-PQFP, 28×28 mm) for compact board implementations.
• Operating Temperature  Commercial-grade operation from 0 °C to 85 °C for standard ambient environments.
• RoHS Compliant  Device meets RoHS environmental compliance requirements.

Typical Applications

• Custom Digital Control  Implement state machines, protocol handlers, and application-specific control logic using the device’s 75,264 logic elements and 147 I/O pins.
• High-Density Logic Integration  Consolidate multiple discrete functions or glue logic into a single FPGA thanks to the 3,000,000-gate equivalent capacity.
• Data Buffering and Local Storage  Use the approximately 0.516 Mbits of embedded RAM for buffering, FIFOs, or small lookup tables within data-path designs.

Unique Advantages

• High Logic Density: 75,264 logic elements and a 3,000,000-gate equivalent enable integration of large logic functions in one device, reducing board-level component count.
• Ample I/O Count: 147 I/O pins allow flexible interfacing with multiple peripherals and external devices without additional multiplexing hardware.
• Compact Surface-Mount Package: The 208-BFQFP (28×28 mm supplier PQFP) package provides a balance of pin count and board space for compact designs.
• Predictable Power Range: A defined supply window of 1.425 V to 1.575 V simplifies power-supply selection and validation.
• Commercial Temperature Rating: Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C operation, appropriate for standard commercial applications and environments.
• RoHS Compliance: Environmentally compliant construction supports modern manufacturing requirements.
