Chips have 40% lower dynamic and 90% lower static power than previous devices
Typically using just 100 mA of dynamic current and 1 mW of static power, the ProASIC3L flash FPGA devices feature 250 k to 3 M system gates with 40% lower dynamic and 90% lower static power than previous-generation devices. The chips run at 1.2 to 3.3 V and have 36 to 504 Kbits of SRAM.
The devices operate at 350 MHz in 1.5 V and 250 MHz in 1.2-V systems and provide FlashFreeze technology that enables instant on/off cycling. A license- and royalty-fee-free implementation of the FPGA-optimized 32-bit ARM Cortex-M1 processor is also available.
Offered in both commercial and industrial temperature grades, they feature 157 to 620 I/Os, one to six PLLs, and nonvolatile memory.
