M2GL050T-1FG484I

The M2GL050T-1FG484I is an IGLOO2 family FPGA from Microchip Technology that combines flash-based FPGA fabric with high-performance communications and memory interfaces. It is designed for designs that require substantial logic capacity, extensive I/O, and a broad operating voltage and temperature window.

This device is suited for applications demanding low-power, reliable programmable logic with on-chip embedded memory and advanced system-level interfaces.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 56,340 logic elements (logic cells) to implement medium-to-large FPGA designs.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 1.87 Mbits of on-chip RAM for buffering, FIFOs, and state storage.
• I/O Density & Flexibility — 267 user I/Os with support for multi-standard signaling as provided across the IGLOO2 family.
• High-Performance Fabric (family-level) — IGLOO2 architecture uses 4-input LUTs with carry chains and includes embedded memory and DSP mathblocks (family capabilities described in the IGLOO2 product brief).
• High-Speed Interfaces (family-level) — IGLOO2 family supports high-speed serial interfaces and PCIe/ SERDES options as described in the IGLOO2 documentation.
• Voltage Range — Operates from 1.14 V to 2.625 V to support diverse core and I/O configurations.
• Package & Mounting — 484‑BGA package (484‑FPBGA, 23×23) suitable for surface-mount PCB assembly.
• Industrial Temperature Range — Rated for operation from −40 °C to 100 °C for use in industrial environments.
• Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• High‑speed communications — Implement protocol bridging, SERDES-based links, and PCIe endpoints using the IGLOO2 family’s high-speed interface capabilities.
• Embedded industrial control — Use the device’s logic density and wide temperature range for motor control, PLC subsystems, and factory automation functions.
• Memory interface and buffering — On-chip RAM and family-level DDRx controller support are suitable for buffering, packet buffering, and memory bridging tasks.
• Secure systems — Leverage IGLOO2 design-security features (encrypted bitstreams and anti-tamper features described for the family) where protection of IP and data is required.

Unique Advantages

• Substantial logic resource: 56,340 logic elements provide the capacity to implement complex logic and control functions without external PLDs.
• Integrated memory: Approximately 1.87 Mbits of embedded RAM reduces external memory needs for many buffering and storage tasks.
• Flexible I/O and voltage support: 267 I/Os and a broad supply range (1.14–2.625 V) allow adaptable interfacing across mixed-voltage systems.
• Industrial readiness: −40 °C to 100 °C operating range and surface-mount 484‑BGA package support industrial deployment and standard PCB assembly.
• Design security features (family-level): IGLOO2 family includes design security options such as encrypted bitstreams and anti-tamper mechanisms to help protect IP.
• RoHS compliant: Meets RoHS requirements for environmental compliance.
