M7A3P1000-2FGG256I

The M7A3P1000-2FGG256I is a ProASIC3 family FPGA IC from Microchip Technology, delivered in a 256-LBGA package. It provides a balance of on-chip logic capacity, embedded memory, and I/O density for industrial-grade embedded system designs.

With 24,576 logic elements, approximately 0.147 Mbits of embedded RAM, and 177 user I/Os, this surface-mount FPGA is aimed at industrial applications that require reconfigurable logic, moderate on-chip buffering, and a compact 256-ball package. The device supports a core supply range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V and an operating temperature range of −40°C to 100°C.

Key Features

• Core Logic 24,576 logic elements (cells) providing a total of 1,000,000 logical gates for implementing custom digital logic and control functions.
• Embedded Memory 147,456 bits of on-chip RAM (approximately 0.147 Mbits) to support buffering, small data structures, and state storage within the FPGA fabric.
• I/O Density 177 user I/Os for flexible external interfacing and consolidation of multiple digital signals into a single programmable device.
• Power Core supply voltage specified from 1.425 V to 1.575 V to match system power domains and ensure predictable power behavior.
• Package & Mounting 256-ball LBGA package (supplier device package: 256-FPBGA, 17 × 17 mm) in a surface-mount form factor for compact PCB integration.
• Industrial Temperature Range Rated for operation from −40°C to 100°C, suitable for applications requiring extended temperature tolerance.
• Regulatory RoHS compliant to support lead-free assembly and regulatory requirements for many production environments.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control Implement custom control logic and I/O consolidation for factory automation and machine control within industrial temperature conditions.
• Interface Bridging Use the device’s abundant I/Os and reprogrammability to consolidate protocol translation or signal interfacing tasks on a single IC.
• Embedded System Logic Integrate custom finite-state machines, timing logic, and small data buffers using the provided logic elements and on-chip RAM.

Unique Advantages

• High usable logic capacity: 24,576 logic elements enable implementation of substantial custom digital functions without external ASICs.
• Compact package: 256-LBGA (256-FPBGA, 17×17 mm) provides a space-efficient footprint for dense board layouts.
• Significant I/O resources: 177 user I/Os allow consolidation of multiple interfaces and reduce the need for additional I/O-expander components.
• Industrial suitability: −40°C to 100°C operating range and RoHS compliance support deployment in industrial environments with lead-free assembly needs.
• Predictable power domain: Defined core voltage range (1.425 V–1.575 V) simplifies power-supply planning for system integration.
