A3PN030-Z1VQG100

The A3PN030-Z1VQG100 from Microchip Technology is a ProASIC3 nano field programmable gate array (FPGA) in a 100-pin TQFP package. It provides a compact, flash-based FPGA fabric with 768 logic elements and up to 77 user I/Os, suitable for designs that require small logic density, deterministic configuration and low-power operation.

Designed for commercial-grade embedded applications, the device combines a small gate count (approximately 30,000 gates) with flash-based architecture and documented low-power modes, enabling system designers to implement control, interface and glue-logic functions while managing board space and power budget.

Key Features

• Core Logic  768 logic elements (cells) delivering approximately 30,000 gates for compact logic implementations and basic system functions.
• I/O Capacity  Up to 77 user I/Os to support peripheral interfacing, signal conditioning and multi-pin control tasks in a small footprint.
• Power and Low-Power Modes  Flash-based FPGA fabric with documented low-power modes (Static/Idle, Sleep, Shutdown and user low static modes) to help manage static and dynamic power consumption.
• Supply Voltage  Operates from a core supply in the specified range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V, enabling precise power-domain planning on mixed-voltage boards.
• Memory  No embedded RAM (total on-chip RAM: 0 bits), suitable for control and glue-logic roles where distributed or external memory is used.
• Package & Mounting  100-TQFP (100-VQFP 14×14) surface-mount package for reliable board-level assembly and a compact PCB footprint.
• Temperature & Grade  Commercial grade with an operating temperature range of −20 °C to 85 °C, matching common ambient conditions for consumer and general-purpose industrial electronics.
• Standards Compliance  RoHS compliant for environmental and regulatory alignment with lead-free assembly practices.
• Architecture Notes (from datasheet)  ProASIC3 nano FPGA fabric documentation describes global resources, VersaNet global network distribution and clock aggregation capabilities to support system-level clocking and resource distribution.

Typical Applications

• Compact Control Logic  Implement small-scale state machines, protocol handlers or peripheral control where a modest logic count and multiple I/Os are sufficient.
• I/O Bridging and Glue Logic  Consolidate discrete logic gates and level translation tasks into a single 77‑I/O device to reduce BOM and PCB routing complexity.
• Low-Power Embedded Modules  Use the documented low-power modes for battery-aware or energy-constrained modules that require predictable idle power behaviour.
• Prototyping and Proof-of-Concept  Evaluate flash-based FPGA fabric and system clocking/topology features in a compact package for early design iterations.

Unique Advantages

• Right-sized Logic Density: 768 logic elements and ~30,000 gates provide an economical implementation point for small to medium control and interfacing tasks without overprovisioning.
• Flash-Based Configuration: Flash fabric documented in the ProASIC3 nano user guide supports low-power modes and non-volatile configuration behavior for reliable boot-up and stability.
• Efficient I/O Integration: 77 user I/Os in a 100-TQFP package enable multi-signal interfacing while maintaining a small PCB footprint.
• predictable Power Domain Planning: Narrow core voltage range (1.425 V–1.575 V) simplifies regulator selection and power sequencing considerations.
• Compact Surface-Mount Package: 100-TQFP (14×14) offers a balance of pin count and package size for space-constrained boards.
• Regulatory Alignment: RoHS compliance supports lead-free assembly workflows and environmental requirements.
