Built on Stratix device architecture, the device provides a balance of on-chip embedded memory, logic resources, and clocking/I/O structures to support system designs that require flexible hardware programmability and significant I/O connectivity.

Key Features

• Programmable Logic  18,460 logic elements provide the core programmable resources for implementing custom logic, state machines, and combinational/sequential functions.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 1.67 Mbits of on-chip RAM for frame buffers, FIFOs, lookup tables, and other embedded storage requirements.
• I/O Capacity  426 I/O pins enable high connector density and broad external interfacing for parallel buses, external memory, and peripheral connections.
• Power Supply  Core voltage supply range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V, allowing precise core-power provisioning within the specified operating window.
• Package & Mounting  672-ball FBGA (27 × 27 mm footprint) package in a surface-mount form factor for compact PCB integration and high pin-count routing.
• Operating Temperature  Commercial operating range from 0 °C to 85 °C for standard environmental conditions.
• Standards & Compliance  RoHS-compliant materials support regulatory requirements for lead-free assembly.
• Stratix Family Capabilities (from device handbook)  Architecture and functional features documented for the Stratix family include advanced I/O structures, PLLs and clock networks, DSP block interfaces, memory modes, and configuration/testing features such as JTAG and SignalTap II.

Typical Applications

• High-speed data interfacing  Use the device’s large I/O count and Stratix I/O architecture for external memory interfaces, parallel buses, and complex I/O routing.
• Digital signal processing and DSP accelerators  Leverage the Stratix family DSP block interfaces and embedded memory to implement signal processing pipelines, buffering, and data formatting.
• Prototyping and custom logic implementation  Deploy the programmable logic resources and on-chip RAM to validate custom algorithms, controllers, and mixed-function digital blocks.
• Clocking-heavy systems  Apply integrated PLLs and clock network features for designs that require multiple clock domains, clock management, and timing control.

Unique Advantages

• Substantial logic capacity: 18,460 logic elements provide a large, flexible fabric for implementing complex state machines and logic functions, reducing the need for multiple discrete devices.
• Significant embedded memory: Approximately 1.67 Mbits of on-chip RAM supports local buffering and data storage, simplifying board-level memory requirements.
• High I/O count: 426 I/Os enable direct connection to numerous peripherals and parallel interfaces, minimizing additional interface components.
• Robust Stratix architecture: Family-level features such as advanced I/O modes, PLLs, DSP interfaces, and configuration/testing support provide design flexibility and system-level capabilities.
• Compact, high-pin-count package: The 672-FBGA (27 × 27 mm) package balances pin density with a surface-mount form factor for PCB space optimization.
• Regulatory readiness: RoHS compliance facilitates use in lead-free manufacturing processes.
