Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the M2S005S-1FGG484I is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Processor Architecture: ARM Cortex-M3 core at 166MHz
• Memory Configuration: 128KB Flash and 64KB RAM
• FPGA Capacity: 5K Logic Modules
• Package Specification: 484-FPBGA (23x23) with 209 I/O pins
• Connectivity Suite: CANbus, Ethernet, I2C, SPI, UART/USART, USB
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 100°C (TJ)
• Compliance Standards: ROHS3 Compliant, MSL 3 rating

The M2S005-FGG484I qualifies as a parametric equivalent substitute because it maintains identical specifications across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Both parts share the same base product number (M2S005), series designation (SmartFusion2), and functional capabilities.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the M2S005S-1FGG484I and M2S005-FGG484I are active production devices from Microchip Technology with full ROHS3 compliance and identical MSL ratings. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Inventory Availability: The M2S005-FGG484I currently has 865 units in stock compared to 729 units for the M2S005S-1FGG484I
• Supply Chain Requirements: Both parts maintain the same compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected) and regulatory classifications (ECCN, HTSUS codes)
• Design Integration: No design modifications are required when substituting between these parts due to identical electrical specifications, pin configurations, and functional capabilities
• Thermal Management: Both devices operate within the same temperature range (-40°C to 100°C TJ) and share identical MSL handling requirements

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can M2S005-FGG484I be used as a direct replacement for M2S005S-1FGG484I?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametric equivalents with identical processor architecture, memory configuration, FPGA capacity, package specification, and connectivity interfaces. No design changes are required for substitution.

Q: Are there any differences in pin configuration between these parts?

A: No. Both parts use the 484-FPBGA (23x23) package with 209 I/O pins in identical configurations. PCB layouts and footprints are fully compatible.

Q: Do these parts have the same compliance certifications?

A: Yes. Both the M2S005S-1FGG484I and M2S005-FGG484I are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 3 ratings (168 hours). REACH status is unaffected for both parts.

Q: What is the difference between the part numbers M2S005S-1FGG484I and M2S005-FGG484I?

A: The part numbers differ in their suffix designations, but both reference the same SmartFusion2 base product (M2S005) with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The suffix variation does not affect functional equivalence.

Q: Are the operating temperature ranges identical?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across the same temperature range of -40°C to 100°C (junction temperature), making them suitable for identical thermal environments.

Q: Can I mix these parts in the same production batch?

A: Yes. Since both parts are parametric equivalents with identical specifications, they can be used interchangeably in the same design and production environment without functional or compatibility concerns.
