AX500-1FGG676

The AX500-1FGG676 is an Axcelerator family Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) offered by Microchip Technology. Built on the AX architecture and a CMOS antifuse process, this commercial-grade, nonvolatile FPGA targets applications that require high-performance, deterministic timing and dense I/O integration. Typical use cases include high-speed data interfaces, protocol bridging, embedded memory buffering and custom logic acceleration where predictable timing and compact packaging are important.

Key Features

• Core Capacity — Approximately 500,000 equivalent system gates with 8,064 logic elements, delivering substantial on-chip logic for mid-range FPGA designs.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 0.074 Mbits (73,728 bits) of embedded RAM/FIFO resources for on-chip buffering and small-data storage requirements.
• I/O Integration — 336 user I/Os with support for multi-standard, bank-selectable signaling; suitable for mixed-voltage I/O systems and high‑density board layouts.
• High-Speed Performance (Series) — Axcelerator family performance characteristics include 350+ MHz system performance and 500+ MHz internal performance, enabling low-latency logic and fast data paths.
• Programmable Clocking — Segmentable clock resources and embedded PLLs support flexible clock architectures and frequency synthesis (series feature set).
• Power and Supply — Core supply range 1.425 V to 1.575 V; designed for low-voltage core operation consistent with the Axcelerator family.
• Package — 676‑ball Fine BGA (676‑FBGA, 27 × 27 mm) surface-mount package optimized for high I/O density and compact board footprint.
• Operating Range — Commercial grade operation from 0 °C to 70 °C, suitable for a wide range of standard electronics environments.
• Security & Reliability (Series) — Nonvolatile antifuse programming and FuseLock™ protection as part of the Axcelerator family for design security and protection against reverse engineering.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant material and manufacturing status.

Typical Applications

• High-Speed Data Interfaces — Use the device’s high internal performance and dense I/O to implement protocol conversion, SERDES-less parallel interfaces, or LVDS-capable links in mid-range systems.
• Embedded FIFO and Buffering — Leverage on-chip SRAM/FIFO resources for data buffering, jitter smoothing, and pipeline staging in streaming or packet-based designs.
• Custom Logic Acceleration — Offload time-critical control and signal-processing tasks from host processors by implementing deterministic hardware logic and tight timing control.
• Mixed‑Voltage System Glue Logic — Bank-selectable, multi-standard I/Os enable interfacing between 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V and 3.3 V domains in complex boards.

Unique Advantages

• Deterministic Timing: Segmentable clocks and embedded PLLs provide predictable, user-controllable timing for latency‑sensitive designs.
• Nonvolatile Single‑Chip Solution: Antifuse-based, one-time-programmable architecture eliminates the need for external configuration memory.
• High I/O Density in a Compact Package: 336 I/Os in a 676‑FBGA footprint reduces board routing complexity while supporting dense connector and peripheral integration.
• Integrated Memory for Buffers: Built-in SRAM/FIFO memory simplifies designs that require on-chip buffering without adding external RAM devices.
• Security Features: FuseLock™ programming technology helps protect intellectual property and design integrity.
• RoHS Compliant: Supports regulatory and environmental requirements for many commercial electronic products.
