Overview of A54SX32A-1FG256 – SX-A Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC 203 256-BGA
The A54SX32A-1FG256 is a member of the SX-A family of nonvolatile FPGAs offering a fine-pitch 256-ball BGA package and a commercial operating temperature range. The device provides 48,000 system gates realized through approximately 2,880 logic elements and supports up to 203 user I/Os, making it suitable for mid-density logic integration and mixed-voltage I/O applications.
Designed for applications that require a single-chip, nonvolatile programmable solution, the A54SX32A-1FG256 combines series-level performance and system-oriented features with a wide supply voltage range and surface-mount 256-FPBGA packaging.
Key Features
- Logic Capacity Approximately 48,000 system gates implemented as about 2,880 logic elements to support mid-density digital designs.
- User I/O 203 user I/Os to accommodate a variety of external interfaces and board-level connectivity requirements.
- Nonvolatile Architecture (SX-A family) Series-level single-chip nonvolatile configuration simplifies power-up behavior and system integration.
- Voltage Flexibility Supports a broad supply range from 2.25 V to 5.25 V, enabling mixed-voltage system designs when paired with appropriate I/O configuration.
- Package and Mounting 256-ball fine-pitch BGA (256-FPBGA, 17×17) in a surface-mount form factor for compact board layout.
- Commercial Temperature Grade Specified operating temperature range of 0 °C to 70 °C for commercial applications.
- Security and Test Features (Series) SX-A family features such as FuseLock™ secure programming and IEEE 1149.1 boundary-scan (JTAG) are available at the series level for design protection and testability.
- Series-Level Performance SX-A family performance characteristics (series datasheet) include high internal and system frequency capability suited to responsive logic and control tasks.
- RoHS Compliant Device is RoHS compliant for regulatory and environmental requirements.
Typical Applications
- System Glue Logic Used to consolidate discrete logic and simplify board-level interconnects by implementing glue logic, bus bridging and protocol adaptation within a single FPGA.
- Peripheral and Interface Control Provides flexible I/O and programmable logic for control of peripherals, timers and I/O expansion in embedded systems.
- PCI-Compatible Designs SX-A family series-level support for 3.3 V/5 V PCI and 66 MHz PCI operation can be leveraged where PCI-compatible interface logic is required.
- In-System Diagnostics and Verification Series-level diagnostic features support in-system verification workflows and boundary-scan testing to aid production test and field diagnostics.
Unique Advantages
- Right-sized Logic Capacity: Approximately 2,880 logic elements and 48,000 system gates provide the capacity to replace moderate amounts of discrete logic while preserving board area.
- Broad Supply Voltage Support: 2.25 V to 5.25 V supply range enables flexible integration with mixed-voltage systems and legacy peripherals.
- High I/O Count in Compact Package: 203 user I/Os in a 256-ball fine-pitch BGA deliver abundant connectivity in a compact surface-mount footprint.
- Nonvolatile, Single-Chip Solution: SX-A family nonvolatile architecture simplifies system power-up behavior and configuration management.
- Testability and Security (Series Features): Boundary-scan (JTAG) and series-level secure programming features help protect IP and simplify manufacturing test flows.
- RoHS Compliance: Meets RoHS requirements to support regulatory and environmental goals.
