Representing the industry's first flash-based FPGAs qualified for military applications, Actel has announced the availability of its reprogrammable, nonvolatile ProASIC Plus field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) tested and verified to operate over the full military temperature range (-55 to +125° C).
"Designers of high-temperature, high-reliability systems are looking for a solution that meets their stringent requirements without the lengthy design time and high non-recurring engineering costs associated with ASICs," said Ken O'Neill, director of marketing, military and aerospace products at Actel.
"The new flash-based, military ProASIC Plus devices directly address this need and offer designers a 'best-of-both-worlds' scenario - ASIC-like features, such as low power consumption, single chip and live at power-up, combined with in-field upgradability. Further, with this introduction of military packaging and screening options, we have reinforced our continuing commitment to develop high-reliability products for the military market."
With densities ranging from 300 000 to 1-million system gates, the single-chip, military-qualified APA300, APA600 and APA1000 devices are offered in three packaging and screening options - military- temperature plastic (MTP), military-temperature hermetic (MTH), and hermetic packaging fully screened to MIL-STD 883 class B (883B).
