A54SX08-1FGG144

The A54SX08-1FGG144 is a commercial-grade SX family Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) in a 144-ball fine-pitch BGA package. It delivers a nonvolatile, single-chip FPGA solution with 12,000 system gates and 768 logic elements, targeting designs that require configurable I/O, deterministic timing and on-board configuration retention.

Designed for embedded and board-level digital systems, this device combines a compact 144-LBGA footprint with up to 111 user-programmable I/Os, broad mixed-voltage support and features from the SX-A family such as high internal clock performance and built-in security and test capabilities.

Key Features

• Core Capacity — 12,000 system gates and 768 logic elements provide FPGA logic resources for glue logic, finite-state machines and moderate-density custom logic implementations.
• User I/O — 111 user-programmable I/Os in the 144-LBGA package, supporting flexible pin assignments for system interfacing.
• Nonvolatile Single-Chip Configuration — Built-in nonvolatile configuration eliminates the need for external configuration memory while simplifying board-level BOM and power sequencing.
• Mixed-Voltage I/O and 5 V Tolerance — Configurable I/O supports 3.3 V / 5 V PCI, 5 V TTL, 3.3 V LVTTL and 2.5 V LVCMOS2; devices support mixed 2.5 V, 3.3 V and 5 V operation with 5 V input tolerance and 5 V drive strength.
• Performance Characteristics (SX-A Family) — Family-level data indicates up to 250 MHz system performance and up to 350 MHz internal performance for timing-critical paths.
• Security and Test — Includes Actel Secure Programming Technology with FuseLock™ to prevent reverse engineering, plus IEEE 1149.1 JTAG boundary-scan testing for board-level validation.
• Power and Hot-Swap Friendly I/Os — Hot-swap compliant I/Os and power-up/power-down friendly behavior requiring no special supply sequencing.
• Package and Mounting — Surface-mount 144-FPBGA (13×13 mm) package (144-LBGA), suitable for compact board designs.
• Electrical and Environmental — Voltage supply range 3 V to 5.25 V, commercial operating temperature 0 °C to 70 °C, RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• PCI and Bus Interface Logic — Use for PCI-compliant glue logic and interface bridging where 66 MHz PCI compatibility and configurable I/O standards simplify integration.
• Embedded System Glue and Control — Implement board-level control, protocol adaptation and finite-state machines leveraging the device’s nonvolatile configuration and deterministic timing.
• In-System Diagnostics and Test — Deploy for development and test fixtures that benefit from the SX family’s in-system diagnostic and verification capabilities together with JTAG boundary-scan support.

Unique Advantages

• Nonvolatile, single-chip FPGA: Eliminates external configuration memory, reducing BOM and simplifying power-up behavior.
• Flexible, mixed-voltage I/Os: Multiple I/O standards and 5 V tolerance enable straightforward interfacing to legacy and modern logic levels without extra level-shifting components.
• Security-minded programming: FuseLock™ programming technology provides a hardware-level option to protect design intellectual property.
• Deterministic timing control: Family features provide user-controllable timing behavior that helps with predictable system-level timing closure.
• Compact package with ample I/O: 144-FPBGA in a 13×13 mm footprint with 111 I/Os offers a balance of connectivity and board space efficiency.
• RoHS compliant: Meets lead-free environmental requirements for modern manufacturing workflows.
