M2S060T-VFG400

Soc System On Chip Overview

The M2S060T-VFG400 is a SmartFusion® 2 System-on-Chip FPGA manufactured by Microchip Technology. It integrates an ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller subsystem with a 60K logic element FPGA fabric. The device utilizes low-power flash technology for non-volatile configuration and includes embedded memory blocks, high-speed SerDes interfaces, and hard DDR3 controllers. It operates within a junction temperature range of 0°C to 85°C (commercial) or -40°C to 100°C (industrial). The core supply voltage (VDD) ranges from 1.14V to 1.26V, while I/O banks support voltages from 1.14V to 3.45V depending on the standard.

Soc System On Chip Procurement Notes

Verify the specific speed grade suffix and temperature rating when ordering. Confirm export control classification requirements as this product may require additional documentation for shipment from the United States. Check current availability status directly with authorized distributors or Microchip sales representatives.

Soc System On Chip Selection Notes

Select the M2S060T variant for designs requiring approximately 60K logic elements. Ensure thermal management accounts for the junction-to-ambient resistance values provided in the datasheet. Verify that the chosen I/O standards match the available voltage levels for MSIO, MSSIOD, and DDRIO banks.

Soc System On Chip Part Context

This component belongs to the SmartFusion® 2 family, which combines FPGA fabric with a hardened MCU subsystem. It shares architectural similarities with the IGLOO® 2 FPGA family but adds integrated peripherals like Ethernet, USB, and CAN controllers within the Microcontroller Subsystem (MSS).

Soc System On Chip Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements within the same density class include other M2S060 variants with different package options or temperature grades. Upgrades to higher densities such as M2S090T or M2S150T are possible but require schematic and layout modifications.
