A54SX72A-1CQ208

The A54SX72A-1CQ208 is a commercial-grade SX-A family field programmable gate array (FPGA) supplied in a 208-pin BFCQFP package with tie bar. It provides a hardware-configurable logic fabric with substantial gate capacity and a broad I/O set for commercial embedded system designs that require flexible, reprogrammable logic and mixed-voltage interfacing.

Built on the HiRel SX-A family architecture, this device delivers deterministic timing characteristics and family-level features such as secure programming and boundary-scan support, while supporting a wide input supply range to accommodate mixed-voltage system environments.

Key Features

• Core Capacity — Approximately 108,000 system gates and 6,036 logic elements, providing a substantial fabric for complex programmable logic implementations.
• Flip-Flops and Timing — Up to 2,012 dedicated flip-flops; family data lists a 6.7 ns clock-to-out (pin-to-pin) timing for the A54SX72A device and availability in a faster “-1” speed grade.
• I/O — 171 general-purpose user I/Os on the 208-pin package, with support for configurable I/O standards as specified by the SX-A family.
• Voltage Range — Wide supply range from 2.25 V to 5.25 V to support mixed-voltage systems and flexible interfacing strategies.
• Package and Mounting — 208-BFCQFP with tie bar (supplier device package: 208-CQFP, 75×75); surface-mount package suitable for standard PCB assembly.
• Operating Range — Commercial operating temperature range of 0 °C to 70 °C to match typical commercial embedded applications.
• System and Test Features — Family-level support for boundary-scan (IEEE 1149.1 / JTAG) and in-system diagnostics as documented for SX-A devices.
• Security and Power Behavior — Family features include secure programming technology (FuseLock) for protection of designs and power-up/power-down friendly I/Os that do not require strict supply sequencing.
• Environmental — RoHS compliant.
• On-chip Memory — No embedded RAM bits reported for this device (Total Ram Bits: 0).

Typical Applications

• Commercial Embedded Systems — Implement custom logic, glue logic, and control functions where reprogrammable hardware accelerates prototyping and product updates.
• Communications Equipment — Provide protocol bridging, interface adaptation, and I/O-rich signal routing in board-level communication modules.
• Test and Measurement — Use the device’s deterministic timing and programmable I/O to implement custom measurement logic, data formatting, and instrument control.
• Peripheral and Interface Control — Manage user interfaces, peripheral aggregation, and custom bus logic for systems that require flexible pin assignments and mixed-voltage signaling.

Unique Advantages

• High Gate and Logic Density: Approximately 108,000 system gates and 6,036 logic elements enable complex designs on a single device, reducing board-level component count.
