SX-A
Overview
Microsemi SX-A devices can match the speed and performance of an ASIC. SX-A devices can be used to generate system-wide savings by integrating multiple functions into a low cost, single-chip solution. Providing a combination of performance, security, and low power, SX-A decreases the premium for performance while providing a solution highly secure from reverse engineering.- 12,000 to 108,000 usable system gates
- 350 MHz internal clock frequency
- 66 MHz, 64-bit 3.3 V / 5.0 V PCI performance (supporting Target, Master and Master/Target)
- 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5.0 V mixed-voltage support
- 100% resource utilization with 100% pin locking
- Available in military and automotive temperature grades
SX devices have been classified as a "legacy" device. For more information, visit the Legacy & Discontinued Antifuse FPGAs page.
