Detailed Description

Based on a proprietary flash process, SmartFusion SoC FPGAs are ideal for hardware and embedded designers who need a true system-on-chip (SoC) solution that gives more flexibility than traditional fixed-function microcontrollers without the excessive cost of soft processor cores on traditional FPGAs.

Microcontroller Subsystem (MSS)

  • Hardware industry-standard 100 MHz, 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 CPU
  • Multi-layer AHB communication matrix with up to 16 Gbps throughput
  • 10/100 Ethernet MAC with RMII interface
  • Two of each: SPI, I2C, UART, 32-bit timers
  • Up to 512 KB flash and 64 KB of SRAM
  • External memory controller (EMC)
  • 8-channel DMA controller
  • Up to 41 MSS I/Os with Schmitt trigger inputs
    • 25 I/Os can be used as FPGA I/Os

FPGA Fabric

  • Based on Microsemi’s proven ProASIC3 architecture
  • 60,000 to 500,000 system gates with 350 MHz system performance
  • Embedded SRAMs and FIFOs
    • Variable aspect ratio 4,608-bit SRAM blocks
    • x1, x2, x4, x9 and x18 organizations
    • True dual-port SRAM (including x18)
  • Up to 128 FPGA I/Os supporting LVDS, PCI, PCI-X and LVTTL/LVCMOS standards

Programmable Analog

  • High-performance analog signal conditioning blocks (SCB) with voltage, current and temperature monitors
  • Analog compute engine (ACE) offloads CPU from analog initialization and processing of analog-to-digital conversion (ADC), digital-to-analog conversion (DAC) and SCBs
  • Integrated ADCs and DACs with 1 percent accuracy
  • 12-/10-/8-bit mode ADCs with 500/550/600 Ksps sampling rate
  • Up to ten 15 ns high-speed comparators
  • Up to 32 analog inputs and 3 outputs
