APA450-FG144

The APA450-FG144 is a ProASICPLUS field programmable gate array (FPGA) IC from Microchip Technology targeted at commercial electronic designs. It offers 12,288 logic elements, approximately 0.11 Mbits of embedded memory, and up to 100 I/O pins in a compact 144-LBGA package.

Designed for commercial-grade embedded systems, the APA450-FG144 provides configurable logic, on-chip RAM, and a moderate gate count to support custom logic functions, interface bridging, and peripheral integration within a low-voltage, surface-mount form factor.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity  12,288 logic elements and 450,000 gates provide substantive programmable logic resources for mid-density designs.
• Embedded Memory  Total on-chip RAM of 110,592 bits (approximately 0.11 Mbits) for local buffering, state machines, and small data structures.
• I/O  100 general-purpose I/O pins to support multiple peripheral interfaces and external device connections.
• Power  Operates from a 2.3 V to 2.7 V supply range to suit low-voltage system designs.
• Package & Mounting  144-LBGA (supplier device package: 144-FPBGA, 13×13) optimized for surface-mount assembly and compact board layouts.
• Operating Range  Commercial-grade operation with an ambient temperature range of 0 °C to 70 °C.
• Compliance  RoHS-compliant component suitable for designs requiring lead-free environmental status.

Typical Applications

• Commercial Embedded Systems  Use the APA450-FG144 to implement custom logic, protocol translation, and peripheral control in consumer and commercial products.
• Interface Bridging  Leverage the device’s I/O count and logic resources to connect and adapt disparate interfaces on a single board.
• Prototyping & Development  Mid-density logic and on-chip RAM make the part suitable for proof-of-concept designs and feature validation.
• Communications Equipment  Implement control logic, packet framing, or custom data handling functions within communications and networking hardware.

Unique Advantages

• Substantial Logic Density: 12,288 logic elements and 450,000 gates enable implementation of moderately complex custom logic without external ASICs.
• On-Chip Memory: Approximately 0.11 Mbits of embedded RAM reduces reliance on external memory for small buffers and state storage.
• Generous I/O: 100 I/O pins provide flexibility to support multiple interfaces and peripherals on a single FPGA.
• Compact, Surface-Mount Package: The 144-LBGA (144-FPBGA, 13×13) package supports dense PCB layouts and automated assembly processes.
• Low-Voltage Operation: 2.3 V to 2.7 V supply range fits modern low-voltage system architectures.
• Commercial Grade & RoHS-Compliant: Designed for commercial applications with lead-free compliance for environmental requirements.
