• Configuration & Test  In‑circuit reconfigurability via external configuration device or intelligent controller and built‑in IEEE 1149.1 JTAG boundary‑scan test circuitry (available without consuming device logic). Devices are 100% functionally tested prior to shipment.
• Power  Low power consumption with typical standby specification less than 0.5 mA.
• Environmental & Grade  Commercial grade device with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C and RoHS compliance.
• On‑chip Memory  Total on-chip RAM bits: 0.

Typical Applications

• Prototyping and Design Validation  Used as a low‑cost, reprogrammable alternative to gate-array prototypes and for rapid design iteration during development and testing.
• Peripheral and Interface Bridging  MultiVolt I/O and abundant I/O pins make the device suitable for bridging between subsystems that operate at different logic levels.
• Control and Glue Logic  Implement control, glue logic, and custom state machines where moderate logic density and flexible reconfiguration are required.
• Testable Embedded Systems  Built‑in JTAG boundary‑scan and 100% functional device testing support streamlined board-level test and validation flows.

Unique Advantages

• Reconfigurable Design Flow: In‑circuit reconfigurability enables field updates and rapid design changes without hardware swaps.
• Flexible I/O Integration: 219 I/O pins and MultiVolt operation simplify interfacing to diverse peripherals and mixed-voltage systems.
• Compact, Production‑Ready Package: 256‑FBGA (17×17) surface-mount package reduces PCB footprint while providing high pin density for complex I/O routing.
• Testability Built In: IEEE 1149.1 JTAG boundary‑scan and 100% functional testing improve board-level diagnostics and reduce bring‑up time.
• Efficient Arithmetic and Clocking: Dedicated carry and cascade chains plus a low‑skew clock tree streamline implementation of high-speed arithmetic and synchronous logic.
• Low Standby Power: Typical standby current below 0.5 mA helps minimize idle power consumption in battery‑sensitive or low‑power designs.
