APA150-PQ208

The APA150-PQ208 is a ProASICPLUS flash-based FPGA offering 6,144 logic elements and approximately 36.9 kbits of embedded memory. Designed as a mid-density programmable logic device, it provides 158 user I/O pins and a gate capacity of 150,000 gates for a range of custom digital functions.

This surface-mount device is offered in a 208-BFQFP package (supplier package: 208-PQFP, 28×28 mm), operates from a 2.3 V to 2.7 V supply, and is specified for commercial temperature operation from 0 °C to 70 °C. The part is RoHS compliant for environmental conformance.

Key Features

• Core Logic  6,144 logic elements provide the programmable fabric for implementing custom digital logic and state machines.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 36.9 kbits of on-chip RAM available for buffering, lookup tables, and small data storage within designs.
• Gate Capacity  150,000 gates for mid-density logic integration and function consolidation.
• I/O Count  158 user general-purpose I/O pins to support multiple interfaces, bus connections, and peripheral control.
• Power Supply  Operates from a 2.3 V to 2.7 V supply to match system power rails in commercial designs.
• Package & Mounting  208-BFQFP package (supplier device package: 208-PQFP, 28×28 mm) in a surface-mount form factor for compact PCB integration.
• Operating Grade & Temperature  Commercial grade device rated for 0 °C to 70 °C operating temperature range.
• Environmental Compliance  RoHS compliant for reduced hazardous substances in assembly.

Typical Applications

• Custom digital logic  Implement application-specific state machines, glue logic, and protocol handlers using available logic elements and gates.
• I/O expansion and interface bridging  Use the 158 I/O pins to connect sensors, peripherals, or bus segments and consolidate discrete components into programmable logic.
• Embedded buffer and small-memory tasks  Leverage the approximately 36.9 kbits of on-chip RAM for FIFOs, lookup tables, and temporary data storage within real-time data paths.
• Prototyping and development  Suitable for evaluation of mid-density FPGA-based designs where surface-mount BFQFP packaging is required.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced mid-density capacity: 6,144 logic elements and 150,000 gates deliver a practical balance between logic resources and footprint for many custom designs.
• High I/O availability: 158 user I/O pins enable flexible interfacing and consolidation of external components, reducing overall BOM count.
• Compact surface-mount package: 208-BFQFP (208-PQFP, 28×28 mm) provides a high-pin-count solution in a package suitable for board-level integration.
• Low-voltage operation: 2.3 V to 2.7 V supply compatibility for designs targeting lower-voltage systems.
• RoHS compliant: Environmentally compliant manufacturing support for modern assembly requirements.
