AGL1000V5-FG484I

Overview

The M1AGL1000V5-FGG484I is an ARM-enabled IGLOO FPGA featuring a 32-bit Cortex-M1 soft processor. It provides 11,000 logic elements and up to 1 million system gates within a 484-ball fine-pitch ball grid array package. The device operates on a core voltage range of 1.2V to 1.5V and supports industrial temperature grades from -40°C to +100°C. It utilizes nonvolatile flash technology for instant-on functionality and includes Flash*Freeze capabilities for ultra-low power retention.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a high-performance 32-bit ARM Cortex-M1 soft processor with configurable nested interrupt controller
• Features Flash*Freeze technology enabling ultra-low power consumption while retaining SRAM and register data
• Provides nonvolatile flash configuration eliminating the need for external boot PROMs or configuration components
• Supports mixed-voltage I/O operation across multiple banks with programmable slew rates and drive strength

Applications

• Portable electronics requiring low static and dynamic power consumption
• Systems needing secure in-system programming with AES-protected intellectual property
• Applications requiring instant-on functionality without external configuration memory
• Industrial control systems operating under wide temperature ranges

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific ordering suffix matches the required temperature grade and packaging specifications. Confirm whether the design requires the integrated ARM Cortex-M1 processor license, as this affects the part number prefix. Ensure compliance with export regulations if applicable to the destination region. Check for any pending product change notifications regarding silicon revisions or documentation updates before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when both programmable logic density and embedded processing are required in a single chip. The V5 designation indicates support for the wider 1.2V to 1.5V core voltage range compared to older variants. Consider the 484-pin package availability against board space constraints and pin count requirements. Verify that the application does not require AES decryption features, which are excluded from ARM-enabled devices.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Microchip IGLOO family of low-power flash FPGAs. It represents the higher-density end of the series with integrated ARM processing capabilities. The FG484 package offers a compact footprint suitable for high-I/O applications. It serves as a bridge between standard CPLDs and complex SoC FPGAs.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other M1AGL1000 variants with different package options such as CS281 or FG256. Non-ARM equivalents like AGL1000V5-FGG484I offer similar logic resources but lack the embedded processor. Migration requires verifying pin compatibility and ensuring software tools support the target architecture.
