IGLOO^® FPGAs

The IGLOO^® series of ultra-low density FPGAs includes the IGLOO/e, IGLOO nano and IGLOO PLUS families of devices. As the industry's lowest-power FPGAs, IGLOO FPGA families are designed to meet the low-power and small-footprint requirements of today's portable and power-conscious electronics.

The low-power IGLOO FPGA series supports up to 35K Logic Elements (LEs) with up to 504 Kb of true dual-port SRAM, up to six embedded PLLs and up to 620 user I/Os. If your low-power application requires 32-bit processing, you can use the Arm® Cortex®-M1 processor that is available with IGLOO M1 devices without license fees or royalties.

Flash*Freeze Technology

The Flash*Freeze technology used in IGLOO devices enables easy entry and exit from low-power mode in less than 1 µs. It consumes as little as 2 µW while retaining design information, SRAM content and register data. Flash*Freeze technology simplifies power management through I/O and clock management, without needing to turn off voltages, I/Os or clocks at the system level. I/Os can maintain their state during Flash*Freeze mode.

Small-Footprint Packages

IGLOO FPGAs are true single-chip devices that do not require configuration or other support components. They are available in a variety of small-footprint packages with high I/O pin count to match design needs. The IGLOO family is offered in  small-form-factor (3 × 3, 4 × 4, 5 × 5, 6 × 6 and 8 × 8 mm), high-density chip-scale packages and quad flat no-lead packages.
