SmartFusion
The Intelligent Mixed-Signal FPGA
SmartFusion intelligent mixed-signal FPGAs are the only devices that
integrate an FPGA, an ARM Cortex-M3 processor and programmable analog, offering
full customization, IP protection and ease-of-use. Based on Actel’s proprietary
flash process, SmartFusion FPGAs are ideal for hardware and embedded designers
who need a true system-on-chip (SoC) that gives more flexibility than
traditional fixed-function microcontrollers without the excessive cost of soft
processor cores on traditional FPGAs.
- Hard 100 MHz 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 CPU
- Multi-layer AHB communications matrix with up to 16 Gbps throughput
- 10/100 Ethernet MAC
|
- Two peripherals of each type: SPI, I2C and UART
- Two cascadable 32-bit timers
- Up to 512 KB flash and 64 KB SRAM
- External memory controller (EMC)
|
- 8-channel DMA controller
- Integrated analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and digital- to-analog
converters (DACs) with 1 percent accuracy
- On-chip voltage, current andtemperature monitors
|
- Up to ten 50 ns high-speed comparators
- Analog compute engine (ACE) offloads CPU from analog processing
- Up to 47 analog I/Os and 169 digital GPIOs
