AGL400V2-CSG196I

Overview

The AGL400V2-CSG196I is a Microchip IGLOOe FPGA featuring 400,000 system gates and 9,216 VersaTiles. It operates within a core voltage range of 1.14 V to 1.575 V and supports a maximum frequency of 250 MHz at 1.5 V. The device provides 143 user I/Os in a CS196 package (8 mm x 8 mm) with a 0.5 mm pitch. It includes 54 kbits of SRAM and 1 kbit of FlashROM. Operating temperatures range from 0°C to +85°C for commercial grade.

Feature Summary

• Flash*Freeze technology enables ultra-low power consumption while retaining configuration data without external components.
• Instant On capability allows immediate operation upon power-up without requiring an external boot PROM.
• Integrated AES decryption engine supports secure in-system programming via JTAG.
• Clock Conditioning Circuits provide configurable phase shift, multiply/divide, and delay capabilities.

Applications

• Portable electronics requiring low static and dynamic power consumption
• Systems needing secure remote field updates over public networks
• Applications requiring immediate system initialization before processor wake-up

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I' indicates the industrial temperature range (-40°C to +100°C) if required, though datasheet tables list CS196 availability for both commercial and industrial grades. Confirm RoHS compliance status as packaging options vary. Check current production status as device availability may change.

Selection Notes

Select this part for designs requiring 400K gates with mixed-voltage I/O support up to 3.3V. Ensure the design fits within the 143 available I/Os and 54 kbits of RAM. Consider the CS196 footprint constraints during PCB layout. Verify that the 1.2V to 1.5V core voltage range matches the system power supply rails.

Part Context

This component belongs to the IGLOO family of flash FPGAs based on a 130-nm process. It offers nonvolatile reprogrammability and single-chip integration. The AGL400 variant sits between the AGL250 and AGL600 in terms of logic density and I/O capacity within the standard IGLOO lineup.

Replacement Considerations

Pin-compatible alternatives within the same package include the AGL250 series or AGL600 series devices. Verify logic resource requirements and I/O counts when migrating to lower or higher density parts. Ensure software tools support the target replacement device architecture.
