Product details

SmartFusion2 SoC FPGA — Cortex-M3 with 25K logic elements

The Microchip M2S025-FGG484I is a SmartFusion®2 SoC FPGA that integrates an ARM® Cortex®-M3 processor core running at 166 MHz with 25K logic modules on a single die. This is the part that replaces a discrete MCU plus FPGA pair with a single-chip solution, cutting board area and the inter-chip signal routing that eats into timing margin. The 256 KB embedded SRAM (eSRAM) serves as the tightly-coupled memory for the Cortex-M3, giving deterministic access latency for real-time control loops — no cache-miss penalty to worry about when the FPGA fabric is moving data in and out.

The 484-ball FBGA package (1.0 mm pitch) demands a controlled reflow profile — the board house needs to know the MSL level before the stencil is cut.

Active production — no EOL clock ticking

For the procurement desk, that means no scramble to find a replacement mid-production run.

Density tier choice — M2S025 vs M2S005

The M2S005-FGG484I is the same package and pin-compatible across the SmartFusion2 family, but it packs 5K logic modules and 209 I/O compared to the M2S025's 25K logic modules and 267 I/O. If the design needs more than 209 I/O or the FPGA fabric is running a logic-heavy state machine, the M2S025 is the right tier — the M2S005 saves cost only when the smaller gate count fits.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between M2S025 and M2S005?

The M2S025-FGG484I has 25K logic modules and 267 I/O, while the M2S005-FGG484I has 5K logic modules and 209 I/O. Both share the same ARM Cortex-M3 at 166 MHz and 484-FBGA package, so the choice is driven by the FPGA gate count and I/O requirements.

Can M2S025-FGG484I be programmed with standard JTAG?

Yes, the SmartFusion2 family supports standard JTAG programming for both the FPGA fabric and the Cortex-M3 flash memory through the dedicated JTAG port.

Is M2S025-FGG484I compatible with 3.3V logic?

The device supports multiple I/O banks with selectable voltage standards including 3.3V, as typical for the SmartFusion2 family. The specific I/O bank voltage is configured in the Libero SoC design suite.
