A54SX16P-1VQG100I

The A54SX16P-1VQG100I is a nonvolatile SX-family FPGA provided in a 100-pin TQFP package, designed for mid-density programmable logic tasks in industrial environments. It delivers a balance of programmable logic (24,000 system gates / 1,452 logic elements), up to 81 user I/Os and mixed-voltage I/O support for interfacing with a range of legacy and modern logic levels.

This device is optimized for embedded and industrial control applications that require single-chip configurability, deterministic timing, and robust I/O flexibility across a 3.0 V to 5.5 V supply range and an operating temperature of -40 °C to 85 °C.

Key Features

• Core Logic Capacity — Approximately 24,000 system gates implemented as 1,452 logic elements, suitable for mid-density logic integration and glue-logic consolidation.
• Flexible I/O — Up to 81 user-programmable I/Os with configurable support for multiple signaling standards and mixed-voltage operation (2.5 V, 3.3 V, 5 V) including 5 V input tolerance and 5 V drive strength.
• Nonvolatile Single-Chip Configuration — Built-in nonvolatile configuration removes the need for external configuration memory and enables immediate system availability after power-up.
• Power and System Friendliness — Power-up/power-down friendly operation requires no supply sequencing and I/Os are hot-swap compliant, simplifying system power management.
• Performance — Family-level performance characteristics include up to 250 MHz system performance and up to 350 MHz internal performance, enabling high-speed internal logic and signal processing.
• System Interoperability — 66 MHz PCI compliance and boundary-scan (IEEE 1149.1) support for in-system testing and board-level integration.
• Security and Diagnostics — Actel Secure Programming technology with FuseLock™ prevents reverse engineering; in-system diagnostic and verification capability is available via Silicon Explorer II.
• Industrial Package & Grade — Surface-mount 100-TQFP package (supplier package listed as 100-VQFP 14×14) and industrial temperature grade (-40 °C to 85 °C). RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control — Implement deterministic control logic, I/O aggregation, and protocol bridging in factory automation and process control systems that require industrial temperature operation.
• Embedded Systems — Integrate glue logic, custom state machines and interface adaptation in compact embedded designs where a nonvolatile, single-chip FPGA reduces component count.
• Legacy Interface Bridging — Use mixed-voltage I/O and 5 V tolerance to interface between legacy 5 V systems and modern 3.3 V/2.5 V devices without extensive level-shifting hardware.
• Board-Level Test and Diagnostics — Leverage boundary-scan support and in-system diagnostic tools for manufacturing test, verification and field diagnostics.

Unique Advantages

• Highly integrated, nonvolatile solution: Single-chip configuration eliminates external configuration memory and simplifies system boot-up and supply sequencing.
• Flexible mixed-voltage I/O: 2.5 V, 3.3 V and 5 V mixed-voltage operation with 5 V input tolerance enables direct interfacing to a wide range of peripherals and legacy devices.
• Industrial-ready thermal range: Specified -40 °C to 85 °C operation supports deployment in industrial environments without additional thermal qualification steps.
• Security-oriented programming: FuseLock™ secure programming helps protect intellectual property and guard against reverse engineering.
• Deterministic timing and testability: Family features such as deterministic timing and IEEE 1149.1 boundary-scan deliver predictable system behavior and streamlined board-level testing.
• Reduced BOM and system complexity: Mid-density logic capacity and extensive I/O capability allow consolidation of discrete glue logic, level-shifters and configuration components.
