Engineered for applications that require dense logic integration, high I/O count and operation across a broad temperature range, this device provides an automotive-qualified FPGA option for embedded-system designs.

Key Features

• Core Logic  12288 logic elements (equivalent to 450,000 gates) for implementing combinational and sequential logic functions.
• Embedded Memory  110,592 total RAM bits (approximately 0.11 Mbits) for on-chip buffering, state storage and small data tables.
• I/O and Integration  344 user I/Os to support dense sensor, actuator and peripheral interfacing within a single FPGA package.
• Power Supply  Operates from a supply range of 2.375 V to 2.625 V to match targeted system voltages.
• Package and Mounting  Supplied in a 484-FPBGA (23×23) 484-BGA package for surface-mount PCB assembly and compact board integration.
• Automotive Qualification  AEC-Q100 qualified and graded for automotive use, supporting designs that require automotive-level robustness.
• Temperature Range  Specified for operation from -40 °C to 125 °C for deployment in temperature-challenging environments.
• Environmental Compliance  RoHS compliant for adherence to common environmental regulations.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Control Systems  Implement custom logic, signal processing and I/O aggregation in engine control, body electronics or gateway modules where AEC-Q100 qualification is required.
• Sensor and Actuator Interfaces  High I/O count supports interfacing multiple sensors and actuators for real-time signal conditioning and aggregation.
• Industrial Automation  Use in factory equipment and motion-control systems that benefit from on-chip logic density and extended temperature operation.
• Communication and Protocol Bridging  Consolidate protocol translation and I/O buffering within a single programmable device to simplify system architecture.

Unique Advantages

• Highly integrated logic capacity: 12288 logic elements and 450,000 gates enable implementation of complex state machines and processing blocks on-chip, reducing external component count.
• Large native I/O count: 344 I/Os allow direct connection to multiple peripherals and sensors without additional multiplexing hardware.
• Automotive-grade reliability: AEC-Q100 qualification and a -40 °C to 125 °C operating range support deployment in automotive environments.
• Compact BGA footprint: 484-FPBGA (23×23) package balances board space efficiency with high I/O density for compact system designs.
• Precise supply compatibility: Narrow supply range (2.375 V–2.625 V) for predictable power design and easy integration with matched system rails.
• Regulatory alignment: RoHS compliance supports environmental and manufacturing requirements.
