M1A3PE1500-FG484I

The M1A3PE1500-FG484I is a ProASIC3E field programmable gate array by Microchip Technology optimized for industrial embedded applications. It delivers a balance of programmable logic capacity, I/O density and on-chip memory suitable for complex control, glue-logic and interface functions in systems that require an industrial temperature range and a 1.5 V core supply.

Key on-chip resources include approximately 38,400 logic elements, roughly 0.276 Mbits of embedded memory, 1,500,000 gates and 280 I/O pins, packaged in a 484-ball FPBGA (23×23) surface-mount package and certified RoHS compliant.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity  Approximately 38,400 logic elements and 1,500,000 gates provide sufficient combinational and sequential resources for mid-density FPGA designs.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 0.276 Mbits of on-chip RAM for buffering, small FIFOs and control-state storage.
• I/O Density  280 user I/O pins support complex peripheral interfacing and multi-channel signal routing in a single device.
• Package and Mounting  484-ball FPBGA (23×23) surface-mount package (484-BGA) provides a compact, high-pin-count footprint for board-level integration.
• Power Supply  Requires a core supply in the range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V, allowing integration into systems using a nominal 1.5 V core rail.
• Industrial Temperature Rating  Rated for operation from −40 °C to 100 °C, suitable for many industrial environments.
• Compliance  RoHS compliant to meet environmental and manufacturing requirements.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control and Automation  Use the device for programmable control logic, I/O aggregation and protocol bridging where an industrial temperature range is required.
• Embedded Systems  Integrate as on-board programmable logic for system glue, custom peripherals and timing-critical sequencing using available logic and on-chip RAM.
• I/O-Intensive Interfaces  Deploy in designs that require many external connections—280 I/Os enable dense sensor, actuator and bus interfacing.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory  Combines approximately 38,400 logic elements with on-chip memory for efficient implementation of control and buffering functions without external RAM.
• High I/O Count  280 I/Os reduce the need for external I/O expanders and simplify board-level routing for multi-channel designs.
• Industrial-Grade Operation  Specified −40 °C to 100 °C operation enables deployment in demanding environments where extended temperature ranges are required.
• Compact High-Pin-Count Package  The 484-FPBGA (23×23) package provides high pin density in a compact surface-mount form factor for space-constrained PCBs.
• Predictable Core Supply  A defined 1.425 V to 1.575 V supply range simplifies power design for systems standardized on a 1.5 V core rail.
• Manufacturer Backing  Produced by Microchip Technology, providing traceability to a major component supplier.
