Configuration Proms for FPGAs

AT17LV65-10JI application field and working principle

Deeply embedded systems, digital signal processing, and various plug-and-play configurations can all require a versatile and high-performance programmable logic device – such as the AT17LV65-10JI. This field-programmable gate array (FPGA) utilizes configuration proms for programming. The proms store the logic configuration of the FPGA, allowing it to be customized to suit different applications and environments.

FPGAs are ideally suited to applications which require flexibility, high levels of packaging density, and exceptional performance. Application fields range from consumer electronics and automotive designs to aerospace, medical, and industrial control applications. In addition, FPGAs have gained traction in many other industries because of their inherent flexibility in implementation, scalability, and low cost.

The AT17LV65-10JI utilizes processors and memory to store the configurations of the FPGA. An application-specific configuration prom is then erased, reformatted, and reprogrammed with the desired configuration. This reprogramming allows the FPGA to be modified for different applications and environments.

The configuration prom is an integral part of the FPGA and must be protected from changes that could affect the logic. The AT17LV65-10JI has an anti-fuse protection which guards against random bit changes. This protection also prevents the configuration from being changed during operation.

In addition to the configuration prom, the AT17LV65-10JI includes power management circuitry, multiplexer circuitry, and up to 2700 I/O pins. The power management circuitry provides the necessary adjustable supply voltages to the direct connected user logic blocks. The multiplexers allow for flexible connection to external resources, and the I/O pins allow for control and communication over industry-standard communications protocols.

The AT17LV65-10JI is an example of a versatile and high-performance FPGA that can be used in a wide range of applications. Its integrated configuration proms, power management circuitry, multiplexers, and I/O pins provide a wealth of potential uses. Moreover, its protection circuitry ensures that the configuration data remains safe even when exposed to harsh environments or random bit changes.

In conclusion, the AT17LV65-10JI is well-suited for applications in deep embedded system designs, digital signal processing, or any other applications requiring the flexibility, high performance, and scalability of an FPGA. Its integrated configuration proms, power management circuitry, multiplexers, and I/O pins provide a wealth of potential uses, while its anti-fuse protection allows the data to remain safe even in the harshest environments.
