AFS1500-FG484K

The AFS1500-FG484K is a Fusion® Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) from Microchip Technology delivering a balance of logic capacity, on-chip memory, and extensive I/O in a compact 484-ball BGA package. Built for systems requiring a high count of configurable logic elements and robust I/O, this device targets military and other demanding embedded applications where defined temperature and supply specifications matter.

With 38,400 logic elements and approximately 0.276 Mbits of embedded memory, the AFS1500-FG484K provides designers a programmable fabric to implement custom logic, signal processing, and I/O management while operating across a specified military temperature range and a narrow supply voltage window for predictable behavior.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity  38,400 logic elements (cells) supporting complex programmable logic implementations across the device.
• Gate Count  Approximately 1,500,000 gates, enabling dense logic integration for feature-rich designs.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 0.276 Mbits of on-chip RAM for local buffering, state storage, and small data structures.
• I/O Resources  223 user I/O pins, providing broad external connectivity for sensors, peripherals, and board-level interfaces.
• Power and Supply  Specified operating supply range from 1.425 V to 1.575 V to match system power-rail designs requiring tight voltage regulation.
• Package and Mounting  484-ball FBGA package (484-FPBGA, 23 × 23) in a surface-mount form factor for compact board integration.
• Operating Temperature  Qualified to operate from −55 °C to 100 °C, suitable for temperature-demanding environments.
• Grade and Compliance  Military-grade device with RoHS compliance for conformity to lead-free requirements.

Typical Applications

• Military and Defense Systems  Programmable logic for mission-specific processing, I/O aggregation, and control functions in systems requiring military-grade components and wide temperature tolerance.
• Embedded Control  Custom control logic and state machines where a dense logic fabric and plentiful I/O are needed for board-level integration.
• Signal Processing  Small to medium-scale processing blocks and buffering using the device’s logic resources and on-chip RAM for low-latency operations.
• I/O-Intensive Designs  Systems that require many external interfaces can leverage the 223 I/O pins to consolidate connectivity and reduce external glue logic.

Unique Advantages

• High Logic Integration: 38,400 logic elements and 1,500,000 gates enable substantial functionality on a single FPGA, reducing the need for additional discrete logic.
