AGL125V5-CSG196

Overview

The AGL125V5-CSG196 is a Microchip IGLOOe flash FPGA featuring 125,000 system gates and 3,072 VersaTiles. It operates within a core voltage range of 1.14 V to 1.575 V and supports an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +100°C. The device utilizes a CS196 package with 133 user I/Os and includes 36 kbits of embedded SRAM. Key specifications include Flash*Freeze technology for ultra-low power retention and AES-protected in-system programming.

Feature Summary

• Flash*Freeze technology enables rapid entry into and exit from an ultra-low power mode while retaining all SRAM and register data without external components.
• Integrated 128-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) decryption engine provides secure in-system programming via JTAG to protect intellectual property.
• Nonvolatile flash architecture eliminates the need for external configuration boot PROMs, supporting Instant On functionality and immunity to firm errors.

Applications

• Portable electronics requiring low static power consumption and instant-on capabilities
• Secure remote field updates utilizing AES-encrypted in-system programming
• System initialization tasks executed before main processor wake-up

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'I' confirms the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +100°C). Confirm the '5' suffix indicates the 1.5V-only supply voltage variant. Ensure the CS196 package designation matches the required footprint dimensions and pitch for the target PCB layout.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designs require nonvolatile reprogrammability combined with low power consumption. The AGL125 density suits applications needing moderate logic capacity with integrated security features. Verify that the 133 available I/Os meet interface requirements and that the CS196 package fits the spatial constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the IGLOO family of low-power flash FPGAs manufactured by Microchip Technology. It represents the AGL125 density tier within the standard IGLOOe series, distinct from ARM-enabled M1 variants. The device leverages a 130-nm process to deliver ASIC-level performance with FPGA flexibility.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference pin-compatible devices within the same CS196 package offering. Lower density options like AGL060 or higher density options like AGL250 may serve as alternatives if logic resources differ. Ensure functional compatibility regarding PLL availability and memory size.
