With approximately 3,800 logic elements, roughly 51,200 bits of embedded memory, up to 129 I/O and operation over a 3.0–3.6 V supply at temperatures from −40 °C to 100 °C, this device is targeted at industrial applications that need robust thermal range, moderate gate density and a compact surface-mount package.

Key Features

• Core Logic Capacity  Approximately 3,800 logic elements delivering about 44,000 gates for implementing medium-complexity digital functions and custom logic blocks.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 51,200 bits of on-chip RAM to support buffering, small look-up tables and state storage for control and data-path tasks.
• I/O Density  Up to 129 programmable I/O pins to interface with peripherals, sensors and external logic without extensive external glue logic.
• Power Supply  Operates from a 3.0 V to 3.6 V supply range, compatible with common 3.3 V system rails.
• Package and Mounting  160-pin BQFP exposed pad package (supplier device package: 160-PQFP, 28 × 28 mm) in a surface-mount form factor for PCB space-efficient designs and thermal conduction through the exposed pad.
• Industrial Temperature Range  Rated for operation from −40 °C to 100 °C, suitable for many industrial and harsh-environment applications.
• Standards Compliance  RoHS compliant to meet lead-free manufacturing requirements.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control  Implement custom control logic, sequence engines and interface glue for PLCs, motor controllers and machine automation hardware.
• Data Acquisition & Signal Conditioning  Aggregate and preprocess sensor inputs with on-chip logic and embedded RAM for buffering and simple filtering tasks.
• Communications Interfaces  Provide protocol bridging, custom serial interfaces or parallel bus adapters using the device's plentiful I/O resources.
• Embedded System Glue Logic  Replace discrete logic and CPLDs to consolidate control, timing and interfacing functions in a single programmable device.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic & Memory Mix  Approximately 3,800 logic elements paired with about 51,200 bits of RAM enable compact implementations of control and data-path functions without excessive external components.
• High I/O Count  129 I/O pins reduce the need for external expanders and simplify board-level connectivity to peripherals and sensors.
• Industrial-rated Operation  Temperature rating from −40 °C to 100 °C and RoHS compliance support deployment in industrial manufacturing and equipment environments.
• Surface-mount 160-pin BQFP with Exposed Pad  Offers a high pin count in a compact footprint with improved thermal dissipation via the exposed pad for reliable PCB integration.
• Standard 3.0–3.6 V Supply  Compatibility with common 3.3 V system rails simplifies power architecture and integration into existing designs.
