AFS1500-1FGG256

The AFS1500-1FGG256 is a Fusion® field programmable gate array (FPGA) from Microchip Technology designed for commercial applications. It provides 38,400 logic elements and approximately 0.276 Mbits (276,480 bits) of on-chip RAM to implement custom digital logic, interfacing, and control functions.

Packaged in a 256-ball LBGA (256-FPBGA, 17 × 17 mm) for surface-mount assembly, this device targets designs that require a balance of logic density, on-chip memory, and a moderate I/O count while operating within a standard commercial voltage and temperature range.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity: 38,400 logic elements (cells) providing a 1,500,000-gate equivalent for implementing complex custom logic and state machines.
• On-chip Memory: Approximately 0.276 Mbits (276,480 bits) of embedded RAM for buffering, small lookup tables, and local data storage.
• I/O Count: 119 user I/O pins to support multiple interfaces, sensors, and peripheral connections in a compact solution.
• Power Supply Range: Core supply specified from 1.425 V to 1.575 V to match system power rails and design constraints.
• Package and Mounting: 256-ball LBGA (supplier package: 256-FPBGA, 17×17 mm) designed for surface-mount PCB assembly, optimizing board space.
• Operating Range: Commercial temperature grade with specified operation from 0 °C to 85 °C for typical commercial-environment deployments.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliant for lead-free assembly and regulatory adherence.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Control: Implement custom control logic and state machines where moderate logic density and on-chip RAM reduce external component count.
• Interface Bridging: Bridge multiple digital interfaces or act as protocol glue between peripherals using the device’s 119 I/O pins.
• Prototyping and Development: Rapidly prototype custom digital functions and validate algorithms before committing to fixed-function hardware.

Unique Advantages

• Substantial Logic Resources: 38,400 logic elements enable consolidation of multiple functions into a single programmable device, reducing bill-of-materials and board complexity.
• Integrated On-Chip RAM: Approximately 0.276 Mbits of embedded memory supports buffering and local data storage without external memory.
• Generous I/O Count: 119 I/O pins facilitate connections to sensors, peripherals, and external logic, supporting flexible board-level partitioning.
• Compact Surface-Mount Package: 256-ball LBGA (256-FPBGA, 17×17) provides a space-efficient footprint suitable for dense PCB layouts.
• Commercial Temperature and RoHS Compliance: Specified 0 °C to 85 °C operating range and RoHS compliance align with standard commercial product assembly and deployment.
