M2GL005-1VFG400

The M2GL005-1VFG400 is an IGLOO2 field programmable gate array (FPGA) from Microchip Technology, offered in a 400-LFBGA surface-mount package. It combines flash-based FPGA fabric with family-level high-performance communications and memory interface capabilities to serve embedded, communications and DSP-oriented designs.

This device provides 6060 logic elements, approximately 0.72 Mbits of embedded RAM (719,872 total RAM bits) and 169 user I/Os, making it suitable for compact systems that require moderate logic density, on-chip memory and a variety of I/O standards. The device operates over a supply range of 1.14 V to 2.625 V and a commercial temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C.

Key Features

• Core Fabric  Fourth-generation flash-based IGLOO2 FPGA architecture with 4-input LUT fabric and carry chains for efficient logic implementation.
• Logic Density  6060 logic elements on-chip, providing a mid-range capacity for control, signal processing and protocol handling.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 0.72 Mbits of on-chip RAM (719,872 total RAM bits) to support buffering, state storage and local data processing.
• I/O and Voltage Flexibility  169 user I/Os and a supported supply voltage range of 1.14 V to 2.625 V; mounting type is surface mount for PCB integration.
• Package  400-LFBGA package (supplier device package: 400-VFBGA, 17 × 17 mm) suitable for compact board layouts.
• Operating Conditions and Compliance  Commercial grade with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C and RoHS compliance.
• Family-Level Interfaces and IP  As part of the IGLOO2 family, the architecture supports high-performance memory controllers (DDR/LPDDR/DDR2/DDR3), SERDES lanes, PCIe endpoint cores, and DSP mathblocks—enabling scalable system designs when those interfaces are required.
• Security and Reliability (IGLOO2 family)  The IGLOO2 family includes design and data security features such as encrypted bitstream loading and advanced anti-tamper and key management options, useful for designs requiring enhanced supply-chain and IP protection.

Typical Applications

• Embedded controllers  Mid-density logic and on-chip RAM make this device suitable for control tasks, feature-rich user interfaces and peripheral bridging in embedded systems.
• Communications endpoints  Use as a protocol bridge or controller in networked equipment where IGLOO2 family SERDES and PCIe-capable architectures are applicable.
• DSP and signal processing  On-chip memory combined with IGLOO2 family mathblock capabilities supports moderate digital signal processing workloads and data path acceleration.
• Memory interface and buffering  On-chip RAM and family DDR controller support make the device useful for buffering, packet handling and local memory management in systems with external DRAM.

Unique Advantages

• Compact, mid-range FPGA capacity: 6060 logic elements and 169 I/Os in a 400-LFBGA package enable balanced designs where board space and I/O count matter.
• Significant on-chip RAM: Approximately 0.72 Mbits of embedded memory reduces external memory dependence for many control and buffering tasks.
• Flexible power input range: Supports 1.14 V to 2.625 V supply configurations, allowing integration into diverse power architectures.
• IGLOO2 family ecosystem: Access to family-level features—high-performance memory controllers, SERDES, DSP mathblocks and security options—provides a clear upgrade and feature roadmap for system designers.
• Commercial-grade and RoHS-compliant: Designed for mainstream commercial applications with environmental compliance for global manufacturing.
