... 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 Microsemi’s proprietary flash process, SmartFusion devices 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 ...

... FPGA design, embedded design and analog design. These roles can be fi lled by three different designers, two designers or even a single designer, depending on company structure and project complexity. Microsemi has developed design tools and fl ows to meet the needs of these three types of designers so they can work together smoothly on a single project. ...

... The learning path is straightforward for FPGA designers. Because an ARM processor was chosen for SmartFusion FPGAs, Microsemi’s customers can benefi t from the extensive ARM ecosystem. By building on Microsemi supplied HAL and drivers, third party vendors can easily port RTOS and middleware for the SmartFusion devices. ...

... MSS I/Os are primarily for 10/00 Ethernet MAC and are also multiplexed and can be used as FPGA I/Os if Ethernet MAC is not used in a design. These I/Os support Schmitt triggers and support only LVTTL and LVCMOS (1.5 / 1.8 / 2.5, 3.3 V) standards. 4. 10/100 Ethernet MAC is not available on A2F060.
