The low-power FPGA with enhanced I/O capabilities
Actel's IGLOO PLUS low-power FPGA family delivers unrivaled low-power and I/O features in a feature-rich programmable device, offering up to 64% more I/Os than the award-winning IGLOO family and supporting independent Schmitt trigger inputs, hot-swapping, and Flash*Freeze bus hold. Ranging from 30,000 to 125,000 gates, the 1.2 V to 1.5 V IGLOO PLUS devices have been optimized to meet the needs of I/O-intensive, power-conscious applications that require exceptional features.
Key Features
- I/O-optimized FPGA
- Ultra-low power in Flash*Freeze mode,
as low as 5 µW
- Low-power active capability
- Small footprint and low-cost packages
- Reprogrammable flash technology
- 1.2 V to 1.5 V single voltage operation
- Enhanced I/O features
- Clock conditioning circuits (CCCs) and PLLs
- Embedded SRAM and nonvolatile memory (NVM)
- In-system programming (ISP) and security

- Notes:
-
- AGLP060 in CS201 does not support the PLL.
- Six chip (main) and twelve quadrant global networks are available for AGLP060 and AGLP125.
- When the Flash*Freeze pin is used to directly enable Flash*Freeze mode and not used as a regular I/O, the
number of single-ended user I/Os available is reduced by one.
For a wider range of logic densities and features, refer to the low-power IGLOO or IGLOO nano FPGAs.
IGLOO PLUS low power FPGA offers the industry's best power-, area-, logic- and feature-per-I/O ratios in a programmable device, delivering 6X better static power consumption, a 50% reduction in dynamic power consumption, a 2X improvement in I/O density, and as much as 2.7X the logic density compared with competitive programmable logic devices in a similar package.
IGLOO PLUS low-power FPGA solutions offer up to 16X better power per I/O. Assuming a design requires 100 I/Os, the AGLP030 device has 120 I/Os and consumes 5 µW versus the roughly 60 µW of the nearest competitive solution.


The cost-effective IGLOO PLUS devices offer the following I/O features:
- Four I/O banks that support varying voltage levels
- A wide selection of I/O standards
- Schmitt trigger inputs for greater noise immunity
- Hot-swappability for direct system connection while powering up
- Flash*Freeze bus hold, which allows users to hold the I/O states while in Flash*Freeze mode
