EPXA1F484C3

Overview

The EPXA1F484C3 is an Excalibur embedded processor featuring a 32-bit ARM9 core integrated with 100,000 logic gates. It utilizes a 484-pin FBGA package (23x23 mm) and operates at 1.8V. The device includes 4,160 programmable cells and supports surface-mount installation within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a 32-bit ARM9 processor core with FPGA fabric
• Provides 100,000 logic gates for custom hardware acceleration
• Supports high-density interconnect via 484-pin FBGA packaging

Applications

• Embedded systems requiring combined processing and logic control
• Industrial automation controllers
• Communication interface gateways

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation carefully, as Altera is now part of Intel. Confirm the specific suffix 'C3' corresponds to the correct speed grade and commercial temperature rating. Ensure the 484-FBGA footprint matches your PCB design constraints before ordering.

Selection Notes

Select this component when an application demands tight integration between software execution and hardware logic without external bridges. Consider the 1.8V supply requirement and thermal dissipation capabilities inherent to the FBGA package for reliable operation in compact enclosures.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Excalibur family, designed to merge processor functionality with reconfigurable logic. It serves as a bridge between traditional microcontrollers and pure FPGAs, offering system-level integration for complex embedded tasks requiring both code execution and parallel data processing.
