Design Resources
The ProASICPLUS family of FPGAs is fully supported by both the Microsemi Libero IDE and the Microsemi Designer FPGA Development software. Microsemi's Designer software provides a comprehensive suite of backend development tools for FPGA development, which includes timing-driven place-and-route, a world-class integrated static timing analyzer and constraints editor, a design netlist schematic viewer, and SmartPower, a tool that allows the user to quickly estimate the power consumption in a design.
ProASICPLUS devices offer in-system programming capabilities. To program a device, the configuration data is supplied through a standard JTAG interface either from a microprocessor, Silicon Sculptor 3 and FlashPro. For applications without a microprocessor, Silicon Sculptor II is best for production volumes while the FlashPro programmers, with their small size and ease of portability, are ideal for prototyping.
For ProASICPLUS trace and debugging, Synopsys® provides logic analysis software Identify Microsemi Edition (ME).

Flash-based FPGAs store the configuration information in on-chip flash cells and require no additional configuration nonvolatile memory in order to load the device configuration data at every system power-up, which reduces cost and increases security and system reliability. |
 |
ProASICPLUS is an ideal choice for battery-operated and other power-sensitive applications. With ProASICPLUS there is no power-on current surge and no high current transition, which exists on SRAM FPGAs. ProASICPLUS also has significantly lower dynamic power consumption than SRAM FPGAs to further maximize power savings. » Low Power |
 |
Greatly simplifies system design, making the device available to perform critical system setup tasks and reduce bill-of-materials costs and PCB area. » Instant-On FPGAs |
 |
The nonvolatile, flash-based ProASICPLUS family requires no boot PROM, so there is no vulnerable external bitstream that can be easily copied. ProASICPLUS devices incorporate FlashLock, which provides a unique combination of reprogrammability and design security. » Security |
 |
Firm errors do not exist in ProASICPLUS FPGAs. The configuration element of ProASICPLUS FPGAs, the flash cell, cannot be altered once programmed and is therefore immune to particle effects. » Single Event Effects (SEE) |
