A54SX72A-1PQG208M

The A54SX72A-1PQG208M is an SX-A family Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) supplied by Microchip Technology. This nonvolatile, single-chip FPGA delivers a high gate count and configurable I/O capability targeted at high-reliability and military-grade embedded systems.

With 108,000 system gates, 6,036 logic elements and 171 user I/Os in a 208-pin BFQFP package, the device is designed for applications that require deterministic timing, robust I/O options and extended temperature operation.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 108,000 system gates and 6,036 logic elements provide substantial on-chip logic resources for complex designs.
• User I/O — 171 user-programmable I/O pins enable flexible external interfacing in the 208-BFQFP package.
• Performance — 250 MHz system performance and 350 MHz internal performance provide headroom for timing-critical paths.
• Nonvolatile Single-Chip Solution — Built-in nonvolatile configuration removes the need for external configuration memory and supports reliable power-up behavior.
• Configurable I/O and Voltage Range — Supports mixed-voltage operation with a supply range of 2.25 V to 5.25 V and configurable I/O levels; 5 V input tolerance and selectable drive strengths are included in the device family feature set.
• Robust I/O Behavior — Hot-swap compliant I/Os and configurable weak pull-up/pull-down options improve system integration and board-level reliability.
• Security and Test — Secure programming technology with FuseLock helps prevent reverse engineering; boundary-scan testing compliant with IEEE 1149.1 (JTAG) is supported for board testability.
• Packaging and Mounting — Supplied in a 208-pin BFQFP (208-PQFP, 28 × 28) surface-mount package for compact board-level integration.
• Temperature and Grade — Military grade with operating temperature range from −55 °C to 125 °C for harsh-environment deployments.

Unique Advantages

• High logic density: 6,036 logic elements and 108,000 gates enable consolidation of multiple functions into a single FPGA to reduce system complexity.
• Flexible interfacing: 171 user I/Os and configurable voltage support simplify integration with mixed-voltage peripherals and legacy interfaces.
• Engineered for reliability: Military-grade temperature range and hot-swap I/O behavior support continuous operation in demanding environments.
• In-system test and protection: IEEE 1149.1 boundary-scan and secure programming with FuseLock improve testability and help protect intellectual property.
• Single-chip nonvolatile configuration: Eliminates external configuration flash, simplifying BOM and improving power-up/down behavior.
