Soc System On Chip Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I' confirms the Industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +100°C). Confirm the package type FCG1152 corresponds to the required pin count and form factor. Ensure compliance with export regulations if applicable, as indicated in distributor listings. Check for moisture sensitivity levels and recommended storage conditions prior to assembly.

Soc System On Chip Selection Notes

Select this model when both programmable logic fabric and a hardened ARM Cortex-M3 processor are required on a single chip. Compare against IGLOO 2 devices if only FPGA fabric is needed without the MSS. Verify that the 146K LE density meets design complexity requirements and that the FC1152 package fits the PCB layout constraints.

Soc System On Chip Part Context

This component belongs to the SmartFusion 2 family, which combines low-power flash FPGA fabric with a real-time microcontroller subsystem. It is designed for applications demanding high security, instant-on power-up, and reduced system component count by integrating processing, memory, and analog peripherals.

Soc System On Chip Replacement Considerations

Parametric equivalents listed include M2S150T-1FC1152 and M2S150TS-1FC1152. Verify temperature grades and speed grades match application requirements before substitution.
