AGL1000V5-FGG484

Overview

The AGL1000V5-FGG484I is an IGLOO V5 flash FPGA manufactured by Microchip Technology. It features 1,000,000 system gates and 24,576 VersaTiles (D-flip-flops). The device includes 144 kbits of true dual-port SRAM organized in 32 blocks of 4,608 bits, along with 1 kbit of FlashROM. It supports up to 300 user I/Os across four banks and operates within a junction temperature range of -40°C to +100°C. The component utilizes a 130-nm process and is housed in a 484-pin Fine Pitch Ball Grid Array (FGG484) package.

Feature Summary

• Flash*Freeze technology enables ultra-low power consumption while retaining configuration data without external components.
• Instant On capability allows immediate system initialization upon power-up without requiring external boot PROMs.
• Integrated AES decryption engine provides secure in-system programming and intellectual property protection.
• Supports mixed-voltage I/O operation ranging from 1.2V to 3.3V with bank-selectable voltage levels.

Applications

• Portable electronics requiring low static and dynamic power consumption
• Secure remote field updates over public networks
• System component initialization and critical task execution before processor wake-up

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I' confirms the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +100°C) as documented in the datasheet. Confirm the 'V5' designation aligns with the required product revision. Ensure the FG484 package footprint matches the target PCB design constraints. Cross-reference the part number against current Microchip availability status for production devices.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high gate density (1 million system gates) is required alongside nonvolatile flash architecture. The 484-ball package is suitable for designs needing up to 300 user I/Os. Consider the industrial temperature rating if operating environments exceed commercial limits. Verify that the integrated PLL and memory resources meet the specific logic and timing requirements of the application.

Part Context

This component belongs to the IGLOO family of flash FPGAs based on a 130-nm process. It represents the highest density variant in the standard IGLOO lineup, offering significant logic capacity compared to lower-density models like the AGL400 or AGL600. The V5 series indicates a specific generation of the IGLOO architecture with enhanced features.

Replacement Considerations

M1AGL1000V5-FGG484I is a pin-compatible alternative within the same package but includes an ARM Cortex-M1 processor. Standard IGLOO devices do not support AES decryption if ARM-enabled; verify security requirements. Lower density parts like AGL600 require re-evaluation of logic resource utilization.

FAQ

Does the AGL1000V5-FGG484I support AES decryption?

Yes, standard IGLOO devices including the AGL1000V5 support AES-protected In-System Programming (ISP) using a 128-bit AES key, unlike ARM-enabled M1IGLOO devices which do not support this feature.

What is the maximum number of user I/Os available in the FG484 package?

The AGL1000 device in the FG484 package supports up to 300 user I/Os, distributed across four I/O banks.

How does Flash*Freeze technology affect power consumption?

Flash*Freeze technology allows the device to enter an ultra-low power mode consuming as little as 5 µW while retaining SRAM and register data, eliminating the need for additional components to manage I/Os or clocks during low-power states.
