M2S025-VFG400I

Soc System On Chip Overview

The M2S025-VFG400I is a SmartFusion 2 System-on-Chip FPGA manufactured by Microchip Technology. It integrates an ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller subsystem with a 27,696-logic element FPGA fabric. The device operates at a maximum clock frequency of 166 MHz and includes 256 KB of program memory and 64 KB of data RAM. It features 207 I/Os in a 400-pin VFBGA package. Electrical specifications include a core supply voltage (VDD) range of 1.14 V to 1.26 V and an industrial operating temperature range of -40 °C to +100 °C.

Soc System On Chip Feature Summary

• Integrated ARM Cortex-M3 processor with 256 KB flash and 64 KB SRAM
• 27,696 logic elements with up to 166 MHz performance
• Industrial temperature grade (-40 °C to +100 °C)
• 400-pin VFBGA package with 207 I/Os

Soc System On Chip Applications

• Industrial automation control systems
• Secure embedded networking applications
• Mixed-signal system integration

Soc System On Chip Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I' confirms the industrial temperature rating (-40 °C to +100 °C). Confirm the package type is VFBGA-400. Check for export control classifications as indicated in distributor listings. Ensure compatibility with the SmartTime timing analysis tool for the selected speed grade.

Soc System On Chip Selection Notes

Select this model when an integrated MCU and FPGA fabric are required within the 27K logic density range. The industrial temperature grade is necessary for environments exceeding commercial limits. Verify that the 166 MHz maximum clock frequency meets the system timing requirements. Compare against the IGLOO 2 family if non-volatile configuration without an embedded processor is sufficient.

Soc System On Chip Part Context

This component belongs to the SmartFusion 2 SoC FPGA family, which combines low-power flash technology with an ARM Cortex-M3 core. It is distinct from the IGLOO 2 FPGA family, which lacks the integrated microcontroller subsystem but offers similar logic densities. The device utilizes Microchip's mainstream architecture for secure, reliable embedded applications.

Soc System On Chip Replacement Considerations

M2S025T-VFG400I: Commercial temperature grade variant (0 °C to 85 °C). M2GL025-VFG400I: IGLOO 2 FPGA equivalent without the integrated ARM Cortex-M3 processor.
