AGL1000V2-CSG281I

Overview

The M1AGL1000V2-CSG281I is an ARM-enabled IGLOO FPGA featuring a 32-bit Cortex-M1 soft processor and 1,000,000 system gates. It utilizes a 130-nm flash process with 24,576 VersaTiles and 144 kbits of true dual-port SRAM. The device operates within a core voltage range of 1.14 V to 1.575 V and supports up to 215 user I/Os in a 281-pin CSBGA package. It provides Flash*Freeze technology for ultra-low power retention and instant-on capabilities without external configuration memory.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a high-performance 32-bit ARM Cortex-M1 soft processor directly within the FPGA fabric.
• Features nonvolatile flash technology that eliminates the need for external boot PROMs and ensures firm-error immunity against high-energy neutrons.
• Supports ultra-low power consumption through Flash*Freeze mode and low-power active static idle states.
• Provides secure in-system programming using AES-128 encryption standards.

Applications

• Portable electronics requiring instant-on functionality and minimal footprint
• Secure remote field updates and intellectual property protection
• System component initialization and critical task execution before processor wake-up

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'I' confirms the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +100°C junction temperature). Confirm the 'CSG281' designation matches the required 281-pin Chip Scale Package dimensions and pitch. Ensure the 'M1' prefix aligns with the requirement for the integrated ARM Cortex-M1 processor, noting that these devices do not support AES decryption for ISP.

Selection Notes

Select this model when both programmable logic capacity and embedded processing are required. The 1,000,000 gate count supports complex designs, while the Cortex-M1 handles control tasks. Compare against standard AGL1000 variants if ARM integration is unnecessary. Verify that the 281-pin package fits the board space constraints and that the industrial temperature rating meets environmental specifications.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Microchip IGLOO family of low-power flash FPGAs. It is an ARM-enabled variant (M1) of the AGL1000 density class. The V2 suffix indicates support for a wide range of core voltages (1.2V to 1.5V), which contributes to lower power consumption compared to earlier generations.

Replacement Considerations

Standard AGL1000V2-CSG281I serves as the non-ARM equivalent. For higher density, consider AGL1000V5 series members. Cross-family migration requires verification of pin compatibility and resource availability.
