Microchip M2GL060-FCSG325 IGLOO2 FPGA, 56520 LEs, 200 I/O

56520 logic elements in a 324-ball BGA — the gate-budget decision

The Microchip M2GL060-FCSG325 is an IGLOO2 FPGA with 56520 logic elements and 200 user I/O in a 324-ball CSBGA package. The 1.87 Mbit total block RAM provides on-chip buffering for moderate packet processing or line-rate data paths.

200 I/O — fan-out and interface planning

200 I/O in a 324-ball BGA means the outer rows break out on two layers, but the inner balls require at least a four-layer board with microvias or blind vias for full fan-out. The 0.50 mm ball pitch is standard for this density; the package is surface-mount, tray shipped.
