RT4G150-CQG352PROTO

The RT4G150-CQG352PROTO is a flash-based RTG4™ Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) from Microchip Technology intended for demanding, radiation-prone and military applications. It integrates hardened FPGA fabric with high-performance interfaces and memory controllers to support signal processing, high-speed serial links, and complex control systems.

Designed for surface-mount deployment in a 352-BFCQFP exposed pad package with tie bar, this device targets use cases that require high logic capacity, deterministic performance, and extended environmental range.

Key Features

• Core FPGA Fabric  Flash-based RTG4 architecture with 151,824 logic elements for large programmable designs.
• Radiation Resistance & Reliability  Registers and fabric hardened by design against single-event upsets (SEUs), suitable for space flight and other radiation-prone environments as described in the RTG4 datasheet.
• Logic Performance  Each logic element includes a 4-input LUT (LUT4) with fast carry chains; fabric performance documented up to 300 MHz in the datasheet.
• Embedded Memory & DSP  Multiple embedded memory options and embedded multiply-accumulate blocks support digital signal processing tasks; total on-chip RAM reported as 5,325 bits.
• High-speed Serial and Memory Interfaces  Native SerDes communication at 3.125 Gbps and support for DDR2/DDR3/LPDDR memory controllers as noted in the device documentation.
• I/O and Packaging  166 user I/Os in a surface-mount 352-BFCQFP exposed pad and tie bar package (supplier device package: 352-QFP (48×48)).
• Operating Range and Power  Recommended supply voltage range of 1.14 V to 1.26 V and operating temperature range from −55 °C to 125 °C.
• Grade and Compliance  Military grade device with RoHS compliance.

Typical Applications

• Space and Satellite Systems  Radiation-resistant architecture and hardened registers make the RT4G150 suitable for on-board processing and control in low-, medium- and geostationary orbits.
• High-Altitude Avionics  Extended temperature range and SEU-hardened fabric support avionics telemetry, protocol conversion, and mission-critical data handling.
• Medical Electronics  Deterministic DSP resources and reliable configuration integrity for imaging, diagnostics, and treatment-control subsystems.
• Nuclear Power and Industrial Control  Robust environmental tolerance and hardened design characteristics for control, monitoring, and safety-related logic.

Unique Advantages

• Radiation-Resistant Design:  Fabric and registers hardened by design to mitigate single-event upsets, reducing system-level mitigation complexity.
• High Logic Capacity:  151,824 logic elements provide substantial programmable resources for complex algorithms and multi-channel processing.
• Integrated High-Speed Interfaces:  Native 3.125 Gbps SerDes and supported DDR memory controllers reduce the need for external interface components.
• Wide Environmental Range:  Operation from −55 °C to 125 °C and military-grade classification support deployment in extreme conditions.
• Compact, Surface-Mount Package:  352-BFCQFP exposed pad with tie bar and 48×48 supplier package footprint enable dense board-level integration.
• Controlled Power Envelope:  Defined supply voltage window (1.14 V–1.26 V) helps with predictable power budgeting and system-level design.
