Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
Substitution eligibility for the M2S010-FG484 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:
- Identical core processor architecture (ARM Cortex-M3)
- Matching clock speed (166MHz)
- Equivalent memory configuration (256KB flash, 64KB RAM)
- Same FPGA logic module count (10K)
- Identical package footprint and pinout (484-FPBGA 23x23)
- Matching I/O count (233 pins)
- Compatible operating temperature range (0°C to 85°C)
- Same moisture sensitivity classification (MSL 3)
The M2S010-FGG484 meets all substitution criteria as a parametric equivalent within the SmartFusion2 family. Both parts share identical electrical specifications, pinout compatibility, and functional capabilities. The primary distinction lies in manufacturing compliance certifications and inventory availability.

Engineering Selection Recommendations
Both the M2S010-FG484 and M2S010-FGG484 are functionally equivalent and pin-compatible for direct substitution in circuit designs. Selection between these parts should be based on regulatory and compliance requirements specific to the end application.
The M2S010-FG484 is suitable for applications where RoHS compliance is not mandated or where legacy component specifications are acceptable. This part maintains full active production status and is available in moderate inventory quantities (788 units).
The M2S010-FGG484 is the preferred choice for applications requiring ROHS3 compliance. This variant meets modern environmental and hazardous substance restrictions while maintaining identical electrical and functional performance. Higher inventory availability (3400 units) provides improved supply chain flexibility and procurement lead time advantages.
Both parts share identical REACH status, export classification (ECCN 3A991D), and tariff codes (HTSUS 8542.39.0001), ensuring consistent regulatory treatment across supply chains.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Are M2S010-FG484 and M2S010-FGG484 pin-compatible?
A: Yes. Both parts use the 484-FPBGA (23x23) package with 233 I/O pins in identical pinout configuration. Direct PCB substitution is supported without layout modifications.
Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?
A: The primary difference is RoHS compliance status. M2S010-FG484 is RoHS non-compliant, while M2S010-FGG484 is ROHS3 compliant. All electrical specifications, memory configuration, processor speed, and FPGA logic modules are identical.
Q: Can I use M2S010-FGG484 as a drop-in replacement for M2S010-FG484?
A: Yes, from an electrical and functional standpoint. However, verify that your application's regulatory requirements align with the ROHS3 compliance status of the M2S010-FGG484 before implementation.
Q: Do these parts have the same operating temperature range?
A: Yes. Both parts operate across 0°C to 85°C junction temperature (TJ) range with identical thermal characteristics.
Q: Are there any differences in moisture sensitivity handling?
A: No. Both parts carry MSL 3 classification with 168-hour floor life. Identical moisture control and storage procedures apply to both variants.
Q: Which part should I specify for new designs?
A: For new designs, specify M2S010-FGG484 to ensure compliance with current environmental regulations (ROHS3). This part also offers superior inventory availability, reducing procurement risk.
Q: Are both parts currently in production?
A: Yes. Both M2S010-FG484 and M2S010-FGG484 maintain active production status with Microchip Technology.
