M1A3PE1500-PQ208I

The M1A3PE1500-PQ208I is a ProASIC3E Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC from Microchip Technology designed for industrial embedded applications. This device combines a high gate count and a large number of logic elements with on-chip memory and a 147-pin I/O complement to support complex logic, interfacing, and control tasks.

Packaged in a 208-BFQFP surface-mount format with a supplier device package of 208-PQFP (28×28), the part operates over a wide industrial temperature range and uses a tightly specified core supply range for controlled power design.

Key Features

• Core density: 1,500,000 gates and 38,400 logic elements provide the capacity to implement substantial digital logic and control functions within a single device.
• Embedded memory: Approximately 0.276 Mbits of on-chip RAM (276,480 bits) for local data buffering, state storage, and small lookup tables.
• I/O resources: 147 available I/O pins to support multiple interfaces, external peripherals, and board-level connectivity.
• Power supply: Core voltage specified at 1.425 V to 1.575 V, allowing precise power budgeting and regulator selection for system-level design.
• Package and mounting: 208-BFQFP package case in a surface-mount form factor; supplier device package listed as 208-PQFP (28×28) for compact board integration.
• Temperature and grade: Industrial-grade device rated for operation from −40 °C to 100 °C suitable for a wide range of industrial environments.
• Environmental compliance: RoHS compliant to support regulatory and manufacturing requirements.

Unique Advantages

• High integration in a single device: 1.5 million gates and 38,400 logic elements reduce the need for multiple discrete components, simplifying BOM and board complexity.
• Local embedded memory: On-chip RAM of 276,480 bits enables fast on-chip data storage and low-latency processing without external SRAM.
• Generous I/O count: 147 I/O pins support extensive peripheral and interface connectivity without additional I/O expanders.
• Industrial temperature capability: Rated −40 °C to 100 °C to meet demanding environmental and reliability requirements in industrial deployments.
• Compact surface-mount packaging: 208-BFQFP / 208-PQFP (28×28) offers a balance of pin count and board-space efficiency for mid-density designs.
• Predictable power design: Narrow core voltage range (1.425 V–1.575 V) allows designers to select appropriate regulators and implement consistent power sequencing.
