AGL400V5-FGG484I

Overview

The AGL400V5-FGG484I is an industrial-grade Field Programmable Gate Array from the Microsemi IGLOO V5 family, utilizing a 130-nm flash-based CMOS process. It provides 400,000 system gates and 9,216 VersaTiles within a 484-pin Fine Pitch Ball Grid Array (FGG484) package measuring 23 x 23 mm with a 1 mm pitch. The device supports a core voltage range of 1.2 V to 1.5 V, achieving ultra-low power consumption including 32 µW in Flash*Freeze mode. It features up to 54 kbits of dual-port SRAM, four I/O banks, and supports mixed-voltage operation up to 3.3 V.

Feature Summary

• Flash*Freeze technology enables rapid entry into an ultra-low power static mode while retaining all configuration data and register states without requiring external components.
• Integrated nonvolatile flash architecture eliminates the need for external boot PROMs, providing instant-on capability and immunity to firm errors caused by high-energy neutrons.
• Advanced security features include FlashLock protection and AES-128 decryption support for secure in-system programming via JTAG.
• Flexible I/O structure supports bank-selectable voltages and mixed-voltage operation across multiple standards, accommodating diverse system interface requirements.

Applications

• Portable electronics requiring extended battery life through low-power active and standby modes
• Secure remote field updates and intellectual property protection applications
• Systems requiring instant-on functionality and simplified board design by removing configuration memory

Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering suffix 'I' confirms the industrial temperature rating of -40°C to +100°C junction temperature. Confirm the 'V5' designation indicates the specific revision of the IGLOO Low Power Flash FPGA family. Ensure the FGG484 package matches the required footprint dimensions and pin count for the target PCB layout.

Selection Notes

Select this device when designs require 400,000 system gates with industrial temperature reliability. Consider the AGL400V5 over lower-density parts if 9,216 VersaTiles and 54 kbits of RAM are necessary. Verify that the 1.2 V to 1.5 V core voltage range aligns with the system's power supply constraints and that the 484-ball package fits the mechanical envelope.

Part Context

This component belongs to the IGLOO V5 series of low-power flash FPGAs manufactured by Microsemi. It shares architectural similarities with other devices in the family, such as the AGL250 and AGL600, but offers a specific balance of logic density and I/O capacity. The V5 designation distinguishes it from earlier revisions like V2, particularly regarding voltage support flexibility.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements within the same package include other AGL400 variants with different temperature grades or voltage ranges, such as the commercial grade AGL400V5-CS196C. For migration to higher densities, the AGL600 series may be considered if additional resources are needed, though package compatibility must be verified.
