• DSP Blocks: 63 dedicated blocks providing 252 (18-bit x 18-bit) multipliers for signal processing.
• Clock Management: Up to 12 PLLs (4 enhanced, 8 fast) with dynamic clock network enable/disable.

Field Programmable Gate Array Applications

• High-speed networking and communications bus standards including Parallel RapidIO and HyperTransport.
• Implementation of high-performance digital filters and FIR functions using DSP blocks.
• Memory-intensive applications requiring large on-chip TriMatrix memory resources.

Field Programmable Gate Array Procurement Notes

Verify the specific speed grade suffix (-4 or -5) required for the design timing constraints. Confirm that the 780-pin FBGA footprint matches the PCB layout, noting the 29x29 mm dimensions. Ensure compatibility with the Quartus II software version supporting the Stratix II family for compilation and programming.

Field Programmable Gate Array Selection Notes

Select this model when designs require approximately 130k LEs and significant DSP capabilities within a 780-pin package. Compare against EP2S90 for lower density needs or EP2S180 for higher capacity in the same form factor. Verify vertical migration paths if future scalability within the 780-pin package is anticipated.

Field Programmable Gate Array Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix II family, which introduced the Adaptive Logic Module (ALM) architecture. It sits between the EP2S90 and EP2S180 in terms of logic density. The 'F' indicates the FineLine BGA package, '780' denotes the pin count, 'I' specifies the industrial temperature range, and 'N' typically indicates lead-free compliance.

Field Programmable Gate Array Replacement Considerations

For vertical migration within the 780-pin package, consider the EP2S90F780 or EP2S180F780 series. Note that migrating to a larger density device may result in fewer available user I/O pins due to increased power and ground requirements. Consult the Quartus II Pin Planner for specific pin availability.
