A54SX16P-2VQ100I

The A54SX16P-2VQ100I is an industrial-grade SX family FPGA supplied in a 100-pin TQFP package. It offers a nonvolatile, single-chip FPGA architecture with 24,000 system gates and approximately 1,452 logic elements, making it suitable for compact, reliable embedded designs that require deterministic timing and flexible I/O.

Designed for mixed-voltage systems, this device supports a broad supply range and robust I/O options, enabling use in industrial control, interface bridging and other applications that benefit from in-system programmability and hardware security features.

Key Features

• Core Capacity — 24,000 system gates and approximately 1,452 logic elements provide a mid-range logic resource set for glue logic, control functions and custom peripherals.
• I/O Flexibility — 81 user I/Os (package dependent) with configurable I/O support for 3.3 V / 5 V PCI, 5 V TTL, 3.3 V LVTTL and 2.5 V LVCMOS2; includes 5 V input tolerance and 5 V drive strength as documented for the SX-A family.
• Performance — Family-level performance characteristics include up to 250 MHz system performance and up to 350 MHz internal performance for timing-critical functions.
• Nonvolatile Single-Chip Configuration — On-chip nonvolatile configuration removes the need for external configuration memory and supports power-up/down friendly operation with no supply sequencing required.
• Security and Test — Includes Actel Secure Programming Technology with FuseLock™ to guard design IP and supports IEEE 1149.1 boundary-scan (JTAG) for board-level testability.
• Voltage and Power — Accepts a wide voltage supply range from 3 V to 5.5 V to support mixed-voltage systems and simplify power-rail requirements.
• Package and Mounting — Available in a 100-TQFP (surface-mount) package (supplier device package: 100-VQFP 14×14) suitable for compact PCB layouts.
• Temperature and Grade — Industrial temperature grade with an operating range of −40 °C to +85 °C and RoHS-compliant construction.
• System Integration Features — Family features include hot-swap compliant I/Os, configurable weak pull-up/pull-down on I/O at power-up, individual output slew rate control and deterministic, user-controllable timing.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control — Implement deterministic control logic, sensor interfacing and real-time state machines that require industrial temperature operation and robust I/O.
• Interface Bridging — Bridge between legacy 5 V interfaces and modern 3.3 V logic, including PCI-compatible signaling where 66 MHz PCI support is required on the SX-A family.
• Embedded System Glue Logic — Consolidate discrete glue logic, custom bus adapters and peripheral control into a single nonvolatile FPGA to reduce BOM and PCB area.
• Secure IP Implementation — Protect critical logic and configuration with on-chip secure programming (FuseLock) and leverage boundary-scan for production test and diagnostics.

Unique Advantages

• Single-Chip Nonvolatile Configuration: Eliminates the need for external configuration memory, simplifying system design and reducing component count.
• Mixed-Voltage I/O Support: Configurable I/O standards and 5 V tolerance enable direct interfacing to a wide range of system voltages without additional level shifters.
• Industrial Temperature Rating: Operation from −40 °C to +85 °C supports deployment in industrial environments with extended temperature requirements.
• Integrated Security and Test: FuseLock programming and IEEE 1149.1 boundary-scan support protect IP and facilitate board-level testing and diagnostics.
• Compact, Surface-Mount Packaging: 100-TQFP package provides a balance of pin count and board space for compact embedded designs.
• Deterministic Timing and High Internal Performance: Family-level timing control and high internal operating performance support reliable implementation of time-sensitive logic.
