Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the M2S025T-1FGG484 are identified as parametric equivalents within the SmartFusion®2 family. Substitution is valid when the following criteria are met:

• Identical core processor architecture (ARM Cortex-M3)
• Matching clock speed (166MHz)
• Identical memory configuration (256KB Flash, 64KB RAM)
• Same FPGA logic module count (25K)
• Identical package type and pin count (484-FPBGA, 23x23)
• Matching I/O count (267 pins)
• Identical operating temperature range (0°C ~ 85°C)
• Same compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected)

The identified substitutes differ only in part number designation and inventory availability, with no functional or electrical differences.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—M2S025T-1FGG484, M2S025-FGG484, and M2S025T-FGG484—are Active status products from Microchip Technology with identical electrical and functional specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Inventory availability and lead time requirements
• Supply chain logistics and preferred distributor stock
• Compliance certification requirements (all three meet ROHS3 and REACH Unaffected standards)
• Moisture sensitivity handling procedures (all rated MSL 3, 168 hours)

No functional testing or design re-qualification is required when substituting between these parts, as they are parametric equivalents with identical pin assignments, electrical characteristics, and thermal performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can M2S025-FGG484 be used as a direct replacement for M2S025T-1FGG484?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametric equivalents with identical core processor, memory, FPGA configuration, package, and operating specifications. No design changes are required.

Q: What is the difference between M2S025T-1FGG484 and M2S025T-FGG484?

A: These parts are functionally identical. The difference is in part number designation only. Both feature the same ARM Cortex-M3 processor, 256KB Flash, 64KB RAM, 25K FPGA logic modules, and 484-FPBGA package.

Q: Are all three parts compatible with the same PCB layout?

A: Yes. All three parts use the 484-FPBGA (23x23) package with 267 I/O pins in identical pin assignments. PCB layout and footprint are interchangeable.

Q: Do these parts require different handling procedures?

A: No. All three parts carry MSL 3 rating (168 hours) and require identical moisture sensitivity handling and storage conditions.

Q: Which part should I select for new designs?

A: Selection should be based on current inventory availability and supply chain considerations. All three parts are Active status and suitable for new designs. Consult with your distributor for lead time and stock availability.
