AGL400V5-FGG144

Overview

The Microsemi AGL400V5-FGG144 is a 400,000 system gate Flash FPGA in an FG144 package. It operates on a 130-nm process with core voltage support of 1.2 V to 1.5 V. The device features 9,216 VersaTiles and 54 kbits of SRAM organized into twelve 4,608-bit blocks. It includes one integrated PLL within its Clock Conditioning Circuits and supports AES-protected In-System Programming. The part offers up to 194 user I/Os across four banks and delivers system performance of 250 MHz at 1.5 V or 160 MHz at 1.2 V.

Feature Summary

• Flash*Freeze technology enables ultra-low power consumption while retaining FPGA content without reloading configuration.
• Integrated 128-bit AES decryption engine secures in-system programming via JTAG.
• Nonvolatile flash architecture provides instant-on capability and immunity to firm errors from high-energy neutrons.
• VersaTile fabric allows flexible configuration as logic functions, D-flip-flops, or latches.

Applications

• Portable electronics requiring low static and dynamic power management
• Secure remote field updates using encrypted ISP
• Systems needing instant-on initialization without external boot PROMs

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm temperature grade, packaging compliance, and IP license inclusion. Ensure the component matches the required voltage range and package dimensions for your design. Cross-reference the part number with official distributor catalogs to confirm availability and authenticity before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this device for designs requiring 400K system gates with moderate I/O counts. The FG144 package suits space-constrained applications. Consider the 1.2 V to 1.5 V core voltage flexibility for power optimization. Verify that the available 194 user I/Os meet interface requirements and that the embedded memory fits the data storage needs.

Part Context

This component belongs to the IGLOO Low Power Flash FPGA family. It shares architectural features like Flash*Freeze and VersaTiles with other devices in the series but differs in capacity and I/O count. The AGL400 sits between the AGL250 and AGL600 in terms of system gate density and resource allocation.

Replacement Considerations

Check for pin-compatible alternatives within the IGLOO family such as AGL250 or AGL600 if gate density adjustments are needed. Ensure any substitute maintains the same package type and voltage specifications. Verify feature parity regarding AES security and PLL availability.
