Microchip has officially discontinued the APA300-PQG208M, a ProASICPLUS Flash FPGA delivering approximately 300,000 system gates in a 208-lead PQFP package configured for military temperature operation (‑55 °C to +125 °C). Built on a non‑volatile flash architecture, this device enables true instant‑on capability and live‑at‑power‑up performance while maintaining low static power and strong immunity to radiation‑induced single‑event upsets. The flash‑based configuration cell eliminates external boot PROMs and streamlines board‑level security, making it well‑suited for legacy platforms in avionics, secure tactical radios, radar signal processing, and industrial control modules where uninterrupted field operation is paramount.
Now fully obsolete and no longer manufactured, the APA300-PQG208M remains a critical sustaining resource for deployed systems that cannot accommodate a board respin, software re‑qualification, or full recertification. ZZX Electronics sources end‑of‑life stock through trusted legacy supply chains, providing date‑code traceability and rigorous authenticity verification for every shipment. This approach enables procurement and sustainment teams to secure a drop‑in, military‑grade FPGA that preserves the existing form, fit, and function of long‑life programs in defense, aerospace, and high‑reliability industrial sectors without introducing requalification risk.
