A54SX72A-FFGG484

The A54SX72A-FFGG484 is a commercial-grade, nonvolatile SX-A family FPGA provided in a 484-ball fine-pitch BGA package. It combines a high I/O count and substantial logic capacity with mixed-voltage I/O support and built-in security and diagnostic features.

Designed for commercial embedded designs that require deterministic timing, flexible I/O configuration, and onboard nonvolatile configuration, this device addresses use cases such as PCI interfacing, in-system verification, and mixed-voltage system integration.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity  6,036 logic elements delivering up to 108,000 system gates and up to 2,012 dedicated flip-flops for complex combinational and sequential logic.
• I/O Density & Flexibility  Up to 360 user-programmable I/O pins with configurable support for 3.3 V / 5 V PCI, 5 V TTL, 3.3 V LVTTL and 2.5 V LVCMOS2 signaling. I/Os are hot-swap compliant and support 5 V input tolerance and 5 V drive strength.
• Performance  System performance up to 250 MHz and internal performance up to 350 MHz as specified for the SX-A family.
• Power & Reliability  Power-up/down friendly design with no sequencing required for supply voltages, configurable weak pull-up or pull-down on I/O at power-up, and individual output slew-rate control.
• Security & Diagnostics  Nonvolatile single-chip configuration with Actel Secure Programming Technology (FuseLock™) to protect design IP, plus in-system diagnostic and verification capability via Silicon Explorer II and IEEE 1149.1 (JTAG) boundary-scan support.
• Package & Environmental  484-ball fine-pitch BGA (484-FPBGA, 27×27) surface-mount package; commercial operating temperature range 0 °C to 70 °C; RoHS compliant.
• Voltage Range  Flexible supply operation from 2.25 V to 5.25 V to support mixed-voltage system architectures.

Typical Applications

• PCI and Legacy Interface Bridging  Use the device’s PCI-compliant I/O and mixed-voltage support to implement interface bridging and legacy peripheral support in commercial systems.
• Embedded Control and Prototyping  High logic capacity and up to 360 I/Os make it suitable for embedded control, prototyping of complex logic, and custom peripheral aggregation.
• Secure IP Implementation  FuseLock™ secure programming and on-chip nonvolatile configuration help protect proprietary logic and firmware in commercial products.
• In-System Test and Verification  Built-in JTAG boundary-scan and Silicon Explorer II diagnostic capability simplifies manufacturing test and field verification.

Unique Advantages

• High I/O Count for Dense Designs: 360 user-programmable I/Os enable dense peripheral and bus interfaces without external multiplexing.
• Nonvolatile Single-Chip Solution: Eliminates the need for external configuration memory, simplifying BOM and board design.
• Configurable Mixed-Voltage I/O: Support for multiple I/O standards and 5 V tolerance aids integration into mixed-voltage systems.
• Deterministic Timing Control: Architecture features that support deterministic, user-controllable timing for predictable system behavior.
• Integrated IP Protection: FuseLock™ secure programming technology provides a hardware-level barrier against reverse engineering.
• Commercial Temperature Range: Rated for 0 °C to 70 °C for deployments in standard commercial environments.
