AGL060V5-CS121I

Overview

The AGL060V5-CS121I is a Microsemi IGLOO V5 Low Power Flash FPGA featuring 60,000 system gates and 1,536 VersaTiles. It operates within a 1.2 V to 1.5 V core voltage range and supports up to 96 user I/Os in the CS121 package. The device includes 18 kbits of true dual-port SRAM and 1 kbit of nonvolatile FlashROM. It utilizes a 130-nm flash-based CMOS process for instant-on functionality and retains configuration when powered off.

Feature Summary

• Flash*Freeze technology enables ultra-low power consumption while maintaining FPGA content and register data without reloading configuration.
• Nonvolatile flash architecture provides instant-on capability and eliminates the need for external boot PROMs or configuration components.
• Integrated AES decryption engine secures in-system programming and protects intellectual property against unauthorized access.

Applications

• Portable electronics requiring low static power consumption
• Secure embedded systems needing protected remote field updates
• Instant-on applications replacing CPLDs or clock generation PLLs

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'CS121' corresponds to the Chip Scale Package with 0.5 mm pitch. Confirm that the 'V5' designation indicates the correct revision level for your design requirements. Ensure the industrial temperature grade 'I' matches your environmental operating conditions. Check for any specific RoHS compliance markings associated with this part number.

Selection Notes

Select this model if the design requires 60,000 system gates and fits within the 96-user I/O limit of the CS121 package. Verify that the 18 kbits of SRAM meets memory requirements. Note that the AGL060 in the CS121 package does not support the integrated PLL feature found in other packages.

Part Context

This component belongs to the IGLOO family of low-power flash FPGAs manufactured by Microsemi. It represents the 60,000-gate density tier within the product line. The V5 suffix identifies it as a specific version within the IGLOO series, distinct from earlier revisions like V2.

Replacement Considerations

Check for pin-compatible packages across the IGLOO family such as FG144 or QN132. Verify if lower-density devices like AGL030 or higher-density devices like AGL125 meet the functional requirements while maintaining package compatibility.

FAQ

Does the AGL060V5-CS121I support an integrated PLL?

No, the datasheet specifies that the AGL060 device in the CS121 package does not support the integrated PLL feature.

How does Flash*Freeze mode affect I/O operation?

In Flash*Freeze mode, I/O states are tristated or set to a specific state using weak pull-up/pull-down configurations. No power is consumed by the I/O banks during this mode.

What security features are included for in-system programming?

The device includes an on-chip 128-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) decryption engine to secure ISP via JTAG, protecting the design from unauthorized copying.
