Field Programmable Gate Array Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current product status documentation. Confirm that the package dimensions match the 672-pin FineLine BGA specifications (27 mm x 27 mm). Ensure compatibility with the required speed grade (-4) and industrial temperature range (-40°C to 100°C) for the target application environment.

Field Programmable Gate Array Selection Notes

Select this component when designs require approximately 60k logic elements and significant embedded memory resources within a 672-pin form factor. Consider vertical migration paths if future density upgrades are anticipated, noting that migrating to larger devices may reduce available user I/O pins due to increased power and ground pin requirements.

Field Programmable Gate Array Part Context

This part belongs to the Stratix II family, which utilizes Adaptive Logic Modules (ALMs) for efficient resource usage. The EP2S60 sits between the EP2S30 and EP2S90 in terms of capacity. It supports high-speed external memory interfaces such as DDR SDRAM and RLDRAM II, making it suitable for memory-intensive applications.
