M1AGL1000V2-FG144

The M1AGL1000V2-FG144 is an IGLOO family flash-based FPGA from Microchip Technology, offering a low-power, reprogrammable fabric with an embedded ARM Cortex‑M1 soft processor option. Designed for compact, single-chip implementations, it targets portable and embedded systems that require low standby consumption, flexible I/O, and significant on-chip logic and memory resources.

This device combines approximately 24,576 logic elements, about 147 kbits of true dual-port SRAM, and roughly 1 million system gates in a 144-LBGA (144-FPBGA, 13×13) package, making it suitable for designs that need moderate logic density, embedded processing, and mixed-voltage I/O in a surface-mount form factor.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — Approximately 24,576 logic elements and about 1,000,000 system gates for implementing custom logic, peripherals, and control functions.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 147 kbits of true dual-port SRAM to support FIFOs, buffers, and local data storage.
• I/O and Package — 97 user I/Os in a 144-LBGA package (supplier package: 144-FPBGA, 13×13); surface-mount mounting suitable for compact boards.
• Low-Power Operation — Flash*Freeze ultra-low-power mode consuming as little as 5 μW and Low Power Active (static idle) operation from 12 μW, enabling battery-friendly and always-on use cases.
• Nonvolatile Flash Configuration — Flash-based configuration provides instant-on behavior and retains programmed designs when powered off.
• ARM Cortex‑M1 Support — M1 IGLOO devices support the 32-bit Cortex‑M1 soft processor for embedded control and firmware tasks (ARM-enabled devices have ordering numbers that begin with M1AGL).
• Clocking — Integrated clock conditioning blocks with an available PLL for system clock conditioning and frequency scaling.
• Voltage and Temperature — I/O/core support across a wide supply range with core voltage support listed at 1.14 V to 1.575 V; operating temperature range from -40°C to 85°C.
• Security and In-System Programming — Flash-based architecture with FlashLock designed to secure FPGA contents; note ARM-enabled IGLOO devices do not support on-chip AES decryption via ISP.
• RoHS Compliant — Conforms to RoHS requirements for lead-free assembly and environmental compliance.

Typical Applications

• Battery-powered and portable devices — Ultra-low standby and active low-power modes let the FPGA handle wake-up, sensor scanning, and power management while minimizing battery drain.
• Embedded control and sensor hubs — On-chip logic, SRAM, and optional Cortex‑M1 soft processor provide a compact platform for aggregating sensors, managing peripherals, and executing control firmware.
• User interfaces and system glue logic — 97 I/Os and mixed-voltage capabilities enable bridging between controllers, displays, and custom I/O without large external logic stacks.
• Secure configuration and single-chip solutions — Flash configuration and FlashLock help maintain programmed designs and protect IP in compact system implementations.

Unique Advantages

• Ultra-low standby and active power: Flash*Freeze mode (as low as 5 μW) and Low Power Active operation (from 12 μW) reduce system power budgets and extend battery life.
• Nonvolatile instant-on operation: Flash-based configuration retains designs when powered off and enables rapid recovery to operational state without external configuration memory.
• Integrated soft processor capability: Support for ARM Cortex‑M1 enables embedded firmware execution inside the FPGA fabric, reducing the need for a separate MCU in many applications.
• Compact, high-density package: 144-LBGA (144-FPBGA, 13×13) provides a high-pin-count, surface-mount solution suitable for space-constrained boards.
• Flexible clocking and timing: Clock conditioning circuitry with PLL support simplifies system clock generation and frequency scaling for varied application needs.
• Design security features: FlashLock and the flash-based configuration offer mechanisms to protect FPGA contents and intellectual property.
