AT17C65A-10JC

FPGAs are incredibly useful devices, enabling devices and systems to perform more complex operations, more efficiently, and more reliably than ever before. Commonly used in robotics, manufacturing, communications, and navigation, FPGAs can be used to perform complex tasks in real time, as well as provide unprecedented flexibility to designers. In order to achieve maximum efficiency and reliability, however, FPGAs require a configuration prom (CFP) to store their configuration data and settings. One of the most popular CFPs on the market today is the AT17C65A-10JC from Atmel.

The AT17C65A-10JC is a Flash-based CFP that can store up to 64K bits of configuration data for FPGAs. It is a small 8-pin chip, with 2.7 – 3.6V operating voltage, 5 mA standby current, and 0.4 mA operating current. It requires a single 3.3V supply for programming, and is therefore ideal for applications that require low power or limited space.

Because of its low power requirements and small footprint, the AT17C65A-10JC can be used in a wide range of FPGA applications, from automotive to industrial systems. It can be used to configure logic devices such as PLDs, CPLDs and FPGAs, and can also be used to store firmware and parameter information. Its low power requirements make it an ideal choice for battery-powered applications, and its small size allows it to be used in space-constrained applications.

The AT17C65A-10JC is an asynchronous device, meaning it can be programmed without a clock signal. It depends on an address and data bus connected to the FPGA to carry out its programming operations. Its internal architecture consists of Flash cells, a random access memory (RAM) block, and a row, page and column address logic block.

The AT17C65A-10JC also features a variety of security features, such as a one-time programmable (OTP) mode, a JTAG bypass, and a bit-copy mode. These features allow designers to protect their intellectual property and create more secure designs. The AT17C65A-10JC also features up to 6-word write protection, which prevents accidental or malicious modification of the configuration data.

The AT17C65A-10JC is a highly reliable and efficient CFP for FPGAs, offering a wide range of features for even the most complex applications. With its small size and low power requirements, it is well suited for a variety of FPGA applications, from automotive to industrial systems. In addition, its advanced security features ensure that their data and configurations are protected.
