A3PN250-Z1VQG100

The A3PN250-Z1VQG100 is a ProASIC3 nano field-programmable gate array (FPGA) IC from Microchip Technology. It implements programmable logic using the ProASIC3 nano FPGA fabric and provides 6,144 logic elements, approximately 36.9 kbits of embedded RAM, and roughly 250,000 gates in a compact 100‑TQFP package.

Designed with documented low-power modes and global resource support in the ProASIC3 nano fabric, this device targets embedded designs that require on-chip programmable logic, deterministic I/O, and a small-footprint SMT package. Key electrical and environmental parameters include a supply range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V and a commercial temperature range of −20 °C to 85 °C.

Key Features

• Core & logic  6,144 logic elements (cells) providing the programmable resources to implement custom digital functions and approximately 250,000 equivalent gates.
• Embedded memory  Approximately 36.9 kbits of on-chip RAM (total RAM bits: 36,864) for buffering, FIFOs, and small data stores without external memory.
• I/O & package  68 general-purpose I/O pins delivered in a 100‑TQFP surface-mount package (supplier device package: 100‑VQFP, 14×14 mm footprint) for easy PCB integration.
• Power and low-power modes  Operates from a defined core supply of 1.425 V to 1.575 V and includes low-power mode support as described in the ProASIC3 nano FPGA fabric documentation.
• Thermal & mounting  Surface-mount 100‑TQFP package rated for commercial operation from −20 °C to 85 °C.
• Standards & compliance  RoHS compliant for environmental and lead-free assembly requirements.
• Architecture documentation  The ProASIC3 nano FPGA fabric user documentation details array architecture, global resources, clock aggregation and low-power behavior for system-level design planning.

Typical Applications

• Custom digital logic  Implement user-defined combinational and sequential logic functions using the ProASIC3 nano FPGA fabric and on-chip logic elements.
• I/O expansion and glue logic  Use the device’s 68 I/Os to bridge interfaces, perform protocol adaptation, or consolidate discrete logic into a single programmable device.
• Embedded buffering and state machines  Leverage the approximately 36.9 kbits of embedded RAM and logic elements to implement FIFOs, small data buffers, and control state machines on-chip.

Unique Advantages

• Compact SMT packaging: The 100‑TQFP (100‑VQFP, 14×14) surface‑mount package enables a small PCB footprint while offering 68 accessible I/Os.
• Defined core supply range: Operates with a narrow core voltage window (1.425 V to 1.575 V), simplifying power-supply design and decoupling strategy.
• Documented low-power behavior: The ProASIC3 nano FPGA fabric includes low-power modes and guidance in the user documentation to help manage system power budgets.
• On-chip memory and logic density: Approximately 36.9 kbits of RAM alongside 6,144 logic elements and ~250k gates provide a balance of memory and logic for mid-density designs.
• Commercial temperature rating: Specified operation from −20 °C to 85 °C for standard commercial applications.
• RoHS compliant: Meets common environmental and assembly requirements for lead-free production.
