M7A3P1000-PQ208I

The M7A3P1000-PQ208I is a ProASIC3 field programmable gate array (FPGA) IC in a 208-BFQFP surface-mount package. It delivers a mid-range logic fabric with 24,576 logic elements and approximately 1,000,000 gates for custom digital design and system integration tasks.

Designed for industrial applications, the device provides 154 I/O pins, approximately 0.15 Mbits of embedded RAM (147,456 bits), and a controlled core supply range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V, operating across −40 °C to 100 °C. These attributes make it suitable where logic density, I/O count, and temperature performance are key requirements.

Key Features

• Core Logic Density  24,576 logic elements (cells) supporting up to 1,000,000 gates for implementing complex custom logic.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 0.15 Mbits of on-chip RAM (147,456 bits) for buffers, state storage, and small data structures.
• I/O Resources  154 I/O pins to support multi-signal interfacing and system-level connectivity.
• Power and Voltage  Operates from 1.425 V to 1.575 V, providing a narrow supply window for stable core operation.
• Package & Mounting  208-BFQFP package (supplier device package: 208-PQFP, 28×28) in a surface-mount form factor for PCB integration.
• Temperature & Grade  Industrial grade with an operating range of −40 °C to 100 °C for use in demanding environments.
• Environmental Compliance  RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control and Automation  Use the FPGA for custom control logic, interfacing, and aggregation in industrial systems that require industrial-grade temperature performance.
• Communications and Protocol Bridging  Implement protocol conversion and interface logic across multiple I/Os to bridge subsystems or legacy interfaces.
• Embedded Systems and Prototyping  Suitable for embedded logic implementation and hardware prototyping where mid-range logic density and on-chip RAM are needed.
• Sensor and I/O Aggregation  Consolidate and preprocess signals from many sensors or peripherals using available I/O and embedded memory.

Unique Advantages

• High Logic Capacity: 24,576 logic elements and roughly 1,000,000 gates allow implementation of substantial custom logic without external CPLDs.
• Integrated On-Chip Memory: Built-in 147,456 bits of RAM reduce the need for external buffer memory in many designs.
• Ample I/O Count: 154 I/Os provide flexibility for multi-interface designs and system-level integration.
• Industrial Temperature Range: Rated from −40 °C to 100 °C to support deployment in temperature-challenging environments.
• Compact Surface-Mount Package: 208-BFQFP (28×28) balances pin count and PCB area for space-constrained applications.
• RoHS Compliant: Meets environmental compliance requirements for lead-free manufacturing processes.
