• Logic Capacity: 6,060 logic elements to implement mid‑range programmable logic functions.
• Embedded Memory: Total on‑chip RAM of 719,872 bits (approximately 0.72 Mbits) for local data buffering and state storage.
• DSP and Math Resources: Family features include mathblock DSP resources for signed/unsigned multiplication and accumulation (as described in IGLOO2 family documentation).
• I/O and Connectivity: 209 user I/Os and multi‑standard I/O support (multiple voltage standards and high‑speed serial interfaces described in family documentation) for flexible system interfacing.
• Voltage and Power: Wide supply support from 1.14 V to 2.625 V to accommodate varied core and I/O power schemes.
• Package and Mounting: 484‑ball FPBGA package (23 × 23 mm) designed for surface‑mount assembly, enabling dense board layouts.
• Industrial Temperature Range: Rated for operation from −40 °C to 100 °C for reliable performance in industrial environments.
• Security Features: Design security features such as encrypted user key and bitstream loading, supply‑chain device certificate and anti‑tamper/zeroization options; premium devices in the family provide additional cryptographic services (AES‑256, SHA‑256, ECC) and NRBG/PUF support as listed in family documentation.
• Compliance: RoHS‑compliant for lead‑free manufacturing processes.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control: Implement motor control logic, sensor aggregation and deterministic I/O handling using the device’s logic elements and flexible I/O support.
• High‑Performance Embedded Systems: Use on‑chip RAM and DSP/mathblock capabilities for signal processing, data buffering and custom compute blocks in embedded appliances.
• Communications and Networking: Leverage the family’s high‑speed serial interfaces and multi‑standard I/Os for protocol bridging, packet processing and PHY interfacing.
• Secure Systems: Deploy encrypted bitstream loading and available cryptographic features for secure boot, authenticated updates and anti‑tamper protections.

Unique Advantages

• Flash‑Based Low‑Power Architecture: IGLOO2’s flash configuration fabric provides non‑volatile configuration with low standby power, simplifying power management for deployed systems.
• Balanced Logic and Memory Resources: 6,060 logic elements combined with approximately 0.72 Mbits of embedded RAM enable compact implementations without constant external memory dependence.
• Flexible I/O and Packaging: 209 user I/Os in a 484‑ball BGA (23 × 23 mm) enable high I/O density for complex board designs while maintaining a compact package footprint.
• Industrial Reliability: Rated operation from −40 °C to 100 °C supports extended temperature ranges common in industrial deployments.
• Built‑In Security Options: On‑device security mechanisms (design security on all devices and optional data security on premium devices) help protect intellectual property and system integrity.
• Wide Supply Flexibility: Operation across a broad supply range (1.14 V to 2.625 V) allows integration into diverse power architectures.
