Overview of A54SX32-PQ208M – SX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC 174 208-BFQFP
The A54SX32-PQ208M is a military-grade member of the SX-A family of nonvolatile, single-chip FPGAs. It delivers reprogrammable logic with a measured capacity of 48,000 system gates and 2,880 logic elements, along with 174 user I/Os in a 208-pin PQFP/BFQFP package.
Designed for high-reliability embedded systems, this device supports wide supply-voltage flexibility and an extended operating temperature range, making it suitable for demanding applications that require deterministic timing, in-system diagnostics, and robust I/O control.
Key Features
- Logic Capacity — 48,000 system gates and approximately 2,880 logic elements provide substantial programmable logic for medium-complexity designs.
- I/O and Package — 174 user I/Os in a 208-pin PQFP (208-BFQFP / 208-PQFP, 28×28) package, surface-mount mounting type, enabling dense board-level integration.
- Performance — Series-level performance characteristics include up to 250 MHz system performance and up to 350 MHz internal performance as documented for the SX-A family.
- Voltage Flexibility — Supports a wide supply-voltage range from 3 V to 5.5 V, enabling mixed-voltage designs and compatibility with common logic families.
- Military Temperature Grade — Rated for operation from −55 °C to +125 °C (Military grade), suitable for high-reliability and harsh-environment deployments.
- Power and I/O Robustness — Power-up/power-down friendly behavior and hot-swap compliant I/Os to simplify system power sequencing and board-level behavior.
- Configurable I/O — Series features include multi-voltage I/O support and configurable pull-up/pull-down on power-up for flexible interfacing (as documented for the SX-A family).
- Security and Test — Family-level security and test capabilities such as in-system diagnostic/verification and boundary-scan (JTAG) support are provided for development and production testability.
- RoHS Compliant — Device is RoHS compliant, supporting environmentally conscious assembly processes.
Typical Applications
- Defense & Avionics Systems — Military-grade temperature range and rugged packaging make the A54SX32-PQ208M suitable for mission-critical electronics and ruggedized control systems.
- Embedded Control — Programmable logic and a broad I/O complement enable use in embedded controllers, protocol bridging, and custom peripheral logic.
- Industrial Instrumentation — Deterministic timing and power-up reliability are useful in industrial automation and instrumentation where stable behavior under varying power conditions is required.
- PCI and Legacy Interface Support — SX-A family-level features document PCI compliance and multi-voltage I/O support, facilitating designs that interface with legacy and standard bus architectures.
