AGL600V2-FG484I

Overview

The AGL600V2-FG484I is a flash-based Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) from the IGLOO family, manufactured by Microsemi. It features 600,000 system gates and 13,824 VersaTiles. The device operates with a core voltage range of 1.2 V to 1.5 V and supports up to 235 user I/Os in its FG484 package. It provides 108 kbits of true dual-port SRAM and includes an integrated AES decryption engine for secure in-system programming. The component supports industrial temperature ranges (-40°C to +100°C) and utilizes Flash*Freeze technology for ultra-low power consumption.

Feature Summary

• Flash*Freeze Technology enables ultra-low power static mode while retaining all design data and register states without requiring external components.
• Integrated AES Decryption Engine provides hardware-level security for intellectual property protection and secure remote field updates.
• Instant On capability allows the FPGA to resume operation immediately upon power-up without reloading configuration from external memory.
• Advanced I/O structure supports mixed-voltage operation across multiple banks with programmable drive strength and slew rates.

Applications

• Portable electronics requiring low power consumption and instant-on functionality
• Secure embedded systems needing IP protection against cloning or unauthorized access
• Industrial control applications operating within extended temperature ranges

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'I' confirms the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +100°C). Confirm that the 'V2' designation indicates support for the 1.2 V to 1.5 V core voltage range. Ensure the FG484 package matches the required footprint dimensions and pin pitch specifications for the target PCB layout.

Selection Notes

Select this model when 600,000 system gates are sufficient for the logic density requirements. Consider the AGL600V2 variant specifically if the design benefits from the wider 1.2 V to 1.5 V core voltage support compared to the 1.5 V only version. Verify that the FG484 package provides the necessary 235 user I/O count for the interface requirements.

Part Context

This component belongs to the IGLOO Low Power Flash FPGA family, which utilizes a 130-nm flash process. It is designed as a single-chip solution that eliminates the need for external boot PROMs. The family offers a balance of high logic density, nonvolatile storage, and advanced power management features suitable for cost-sensitive and power-constrained designs.

Replacement Considerations

Check for pin-compatible packages within the same density class, such as other variants of the AGL600 series in different package types like FG256 or CS281. Ensure any replacement maintains the required industrial temperature rating and core voltage specifications.
