M1A3P400-2FGG144

The M1A3P400-2FGG144 is a ProASIC3 flash-based, reprogrammable FPGA packaged in a 144-LBGA (144-FPBGA, 13×13) surface-mount package. It combines nonvolatile configuration, moderate logic capacity and on-chip RAM to address applications that require low-power instant-on behavior and secure in-system programmability.

Designed for commercial-temperature deployments, this device targets high-volume consumer and portable applications as well as battery-backed systems where compact packaging, mixed-voltage I/O flexibility and secure updates are important.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 9,216 logic elements providing a synthesis-targetable fabric and approximately 400,000 system gates for mid-density designs.
• Embedded Memory — Total on-chip RAM of 55,296 bits (approximately 55.3 kbits) for FIFOs, small buffers and state storage.
• I/O and Mixed-Voltage Support — 97 user I/Os with bank-selectable voltages and support for single-ended standards across 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.5V and 3.3V domains for easy interfacing with modern peripherals.
• Reprogrammable Flash Technology — Nonvolatile, flash-based configuration that retains the programmed design when powered off and enables in-system reconfiguration.
• Secure In-System Programming (ISP) — On-chip AES-based decryption and FlashLock support for secure configuration updates via JTAG (IEEE 1532–compliant features described in the family datasheet).
• Low-Voltage Core — Core supply range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V (nominal 1.5 V) for low-power operation and compatibility with 1.5V-only systems.
• Clocking and Timing — Configurable clock-conditioning circuitry and PLL capabilities for flexible clock management (family-level clock features are documented in the ProASIC3 series datasheet).
• Package and Temperature — 144-LBGA (144-FPBGA, 13×13) surface-mount package; commercial operating temperature range 0 °C to 85 °C; RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Portable and Battery-Backed Devices — Low core voltage, nonvolatile configuration and instant-on behavior make the device suitable for compact, battery-powered systems.
• Consumer Electronics — Use as glue logic, protocol bridging or custom peripheral control where mixed-voltage I/O and small- to mid-level logic density are required.
• Embedded Control and User Interfaces — Implement control state machines, display drivers, and input scan/state logic leveraging the on-chip RAM and 97 I/Os.
• Secure Field Updates — Systems requiring secure in-system firmware or configuration updates can utilize the device’s AES-based ISP and FlashLock security features.

Unique Advantages

• Reprogrammable Nonvolatile Configuration: Flash-based architecture retains designs without external configuration memory, simplifying power-up and system design.
• Secure ISP Workflow: On-chip AES decryption and FlashLock capabilities enable authenticated updates and protect IP during in-system programming.
• Flexible I/O Interfacing: 97 user I/Os with bank-selectable voltages support mixed-voltage systems and reduce the need for level-shifting components.
• Compact, Surface-Mount Package: 144-FPBGA (13×13) form factor supports compact board layouts and surface-mount assembly for space-constrained products.
• Low-Power Core Supply: 1.425 V to 1.575 V core supply reduces power consumption for energy-sensitive designs.
• Commercial Temperature Rating: Specified 0 °C to 85 °C operation for standard commercial deployments and applications.
