EP20K200EF484C3NGZ

Overview

The Altera EP20K200EF484C3NGZ is an APEX 20KE Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) housed in a 484-pin FineLine BGA package. It features the MultiCore architecture, integrating Look-Up Table (LUT) logic, product-term-based macrocells, and Embedded System Blocks (ESBs). The device provides 8,320 Logic Elements (LEs), 52 ESBs, and supports up to 106,496 maximum RAM bits. It operates with a 1.8-V internal supply voltage (VCCINT) and supports MultiVolt I/O levels of 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5.0 V. The component includes four phase-locked loops (PLLs) for clock management and complies with PCI Local Bus specifications.

Feature Summary

• MultiCore architecture combining LUT logic, product-term macrocells, and embedded memory.
• Supports MultiVolt I/O interface for 1.8-V, 2.5-V, 3.3-V, and 5.0-V devices.
• Includes four PLLs with ClockLock and ClockBoost features for flexible clock management.
• Compliant with PCI Local Bus Specification Revision 2.2.

Applications

• System-on-a-programmable-chip (SOPC) integration.
• High-speed external memory interfaces including DDR SDRAM and ZBT SRAM.
• PCI Local Bus implementations at 33 or 66 MHz.
• Complex state machines and register-intensive digital signal processing designs.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current documentation to confirm pinout compatibility and electrical characteristics. Confirm that the required configuration method, such as serial configuration via EPC devices, aligns with the system design requirements.

Selection Notes

Select this device for designs requiring high-density logic with mixed arithmetic and control capabilities. Ensure the board layout accommodates the 484-pin FineLine BGA package dimensions of 23 mm x 23 mm. Verify that the power supply design supports the 1.8-V core voltage and the selected MultiVolt I/O levels.

Part Context

This component belongs to the APEX 20KE family, which extends the standard APEX 20K series with enhanced features like LVDS support and additional global clocks. It utilizes the Quartus II development system for design entry and compilation. The device is reconfigurable and configured at system power-up using data from external configuration devices.
