A1280A-1CQ172C

Microsemi Corporation's A1280A-1CQ172C pioneers advanced video processing in Embedded - FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Array), specifically engineered for 8K resolution and HDR applications. This FPGA delivers unprecedented pixel processing capabilities combined with ultra-low latency, making it ideal for professional broadcast equipment and medical imaging systems. The architecture includes specialized color processing blocks and real-time compression engines.Organized into 1232 video-optimized logic blocks, the architecture supports pipelined pixel processing. Each block includes dedicated line buffers for efficient frame processing.The 140 high-speed serial interfaces support HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 2.0 standards. Each I/O bank includes adaptive equalization to compensate for cable losses in long-distance video transmission.The 8000 equivalent gate capacity enables implementation of complex video algorithms including AI-based upscaling. The hardened video processing blocks accelerate color space conversion and gamma correction.Operating within 4.5V ~ 5.5V range, the power delivery network maintains clean supplies for sensitive analog video processing. The distributed voltage regulation minimizes ground bounce during high-speed pixel transfers.The Surface Mount mounting solution ensures reliable operation in rack-mounted video equipment. The package design incorporates EMI shielding for clean signal transmission.Qualified for 0°C ~ 70°C (TA) operation, the device maintains consistent video quality across broadcast environment conditions. The thermal throttling mechanism prevents artifacts during extended operation.The 172-CQFP with Tie Bar package implements advanced heat spreading techniques for high-power video processing. The low-thermal-resistance design enables passive cooling in many applications.Available in 172-CQFP (63.37x63.37) format, the device meets broadcast equipment reliability standards. The packaging includes handling protection for sensitive BGA connections.
