M1A3P250-2VQG100

The M1A3P250-2VQG100 is a ProASIC3 family FPGA IC from Microchip Technology, offering a mid-range programmable logic device with 6,144 logic elements and 250,000 equivalent gates. It provides a balance of logic density, on-chip memory and I/O for commercial-grade embedded designs.

Designed for surface-mount assembly in a 100-pin TQFP package, this device targets applications that require configurable logic, moderate embedded memory and flexible interfacing within a commercial temperature range.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 6,144 logic elements (cells) providing the core programmable resources for implementing custom logic and glue functions.
• Gate Count — 250,000 equivalent gates to quantify overall device complexity for system partitioning and sizing.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 0.037 Mbits of on-chip RAM (36,864 bits) for small buffers, FIFOs or configuration storage.
• I/O Resources — 68 general-purpose I/O pins to support multiple peripheral interfaces and board-level signal routing.
• Power Supply — Operates from a core voltage range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V to match system power-rail requirements.
• Package & Mounting — 100-TQFP (supplier device package: 100-VQFP, 14×14) in a surface-mount form factor for compact PCB layouts.
• Temperature & Grade — Commercial grade operation from 0°C to 85°C, suitable for standard commercial embedded applications.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Interface Bridging and Glue Logic — Use the device's 68 I/O pins and 6,144 logic elements to implement protocol adaptation, signal translation and board-level glue logic.
• Custom Peripheral Implementation — Implement custom digital peripherals and timing-critical logic blocks using the available gates and logic elements.
• Prototyping and Evaluation — Rapidly iterate hardware designs that require reprogrammable logic capacity and modest on-chip RAM for test buffers or state storage.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory: 6,144 logic elements combined with ~0.037 Mbits of embedded RAM enable efficient implementation of moderate-complexity functions without external memory.
• Substantial Gate Count: 250,000 equivalent gates provide a clear metric for system partitioning and capacity planning in embedded designs.
• Compact, Surface-Mount Package: 100-TQFP (100-VQFP, 14×14) allows space-efficient placement on densely populated PCBs while maintaining access to ample I/O.
• Commercial Temperature Range: Rated 0°C to 85°C for reliable operation across typical commercial environments.
• Low-Noise Core Supply Window: Tight core voltage range (1.425 V–1.575 V) supports predictable power budgeting and supply design.
