A3PN250-VQ100I

The A3PN250-VQ100I is a ProASIC3 nano field programmable gate array (FPGA) IC from Microchip Technology. It delivers a balance of programmable logic, on-chip memory, and I/O capability in a compact surface-mount package for industrial-grade applications.

With 6,144 logic elements, 36,864 bits of embedded RAM, and 68 I/O pins, this device is suitable for designs that require moderate logic capacity, embedded memory, and defined I/O density while operating across an industrial temperature range.

Key Features

• Core Logic — Provides 6,144 logic elements (LEs) and approximately 250,000 gates for implementing custom digital logic, glue logic, and moderate FPGA functions.
• Embedded Memory — Includes 36,864 total RAM bits of on-chip memory for small data buffers, state machines, and local storage.
• I/O — Supports 68 user I/O pins to interface with external peripherals, sensors, and logic devices.
• Power — Operates from a core voltage supply between 1.425 V and 1.575 V, enabling consistent core-level power requirements.
• Package & Mounting — Supplied in a 100-pin TQFP package (listed as 100-VQFP (14x14)) and intended for surface-mount assembly.
• Industrial Temperature Range — Rated to operate from -40°C to 100°C for deployment in temperature-challenging environments.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Industrial control — Implement control logic, state machines, and interface bridging in industrial equipment where operation across -40°C to 100°C is required.
• Embedded system glue logic — Replace discrete logic and CPLDs with a programmable solution for custom interfacing and protocol adaptation using the device's available logic elements and I/O.
• Sensor and I/O aggregation — Consolidate multiple sensor inputs or peripheral interfaces using the 68 I/O pins and on-chip memory for buffering.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced logic capacity: 6,144 logic elements and 250,000 gates provide sufficient resources for moderate-complexity designs without excessive overcapacity.
• On-chip memory for buffering: 36,864 bits of embedded RAM enable local data storage and small buffering tasks directly on the FPGA fabric.
• Industrial-grade thermal range: Rated from -40°C to 100°C to support deployment in harsher operating environments.
• Compact surface-mount package: 100-TQFP / 100-VQFP (14x14) format simplifies PCB layout and supports compact board designs.
• Low-voltage core operation: Core supply range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V for defined power planning and integration with low-voltage systems.
• RoHS compliant: Meets lead-free and hazardous substance handling expectations for modern electronic assemblies.
