EP1S20F672C7N

The EP1S20F672C7N is a Stratix® family field-programmable gate array (FPGA) from Intel presented in a 672-ball BGA package. It provides a balance of programmable logic, embedded RAM, and a high I/O count intended for commercial-grade digital designs.

Architected around the Stratix device family, this FPGA combines approximately 18,460 logic elements, roughly 1.67 Mbits of embedded memory, and 426 I/Os to support complex, custom digital functions where reprogrammability and integration are required.

Key Features

• Core Logic Approximately 18,460 logic elements organized across 1,846 LABs for implementing custom digital logic and finite-state machines.
• Embedded Memory Total on-chip RAM of 1,669,248 bits — approximately 1.67 Mbits of embedded memory available for buffering, FIFOs, and local storage.
• I/O Capacity 426 general-purpose I/O pins to support broad interfacing needs and parallel connectivity.
• Stratix Architecture Built on the Stratix family architecture; the device documentation references PLLs and clock networks, multiplier blocks, DSP block interfaces, TriMatrix memory, and advanced I/O structures for system design.
• Power and Supply Core voltage supply range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V to match required power rails for operation.
• Package and Mounting 672-ball BGA (supplier package: 672-FBGA, 27×27) in a surface-mount form factor for dense PCB implementations.
• Commercial Grade & Compliance Commercial-grade device with operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C and RoHS compliance.

Typical Applications

• Custom digital logic Implement glue logic, protocol handling, and state machines using the device’s ~18,460 logic elements and flexible routing.
• Memory-centric designs Leverage approximately 1.67 Mbits of embedded memory for buffering, packet storage, and local data manipulation.
• I/O-intensive interfaces Use the 426 I/Os to bridge parallel buses, connect to multiple peripherals, or implement wide data paths on a single FPGA.

Unique Advantages

• Substantial logic capacity: The approximately 18,460 logic elements enable broad functional integration without immediate need for additional programmable devices.
• On-chip RAM for local buffering: Approximately 1.67 Mbits of embedded memory reduces dependence on external RAM for many buffering and FIFO requirements.
• High I/O count: 426 I/Os simplify board-level routing for multi-channel or parallel-interface applications.
• Standard commercial temperature: Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C to match typical commercial deployment environments.
• Compact BGA package: 672-ball FBGA (27×27) supports high-density PCB layouts and surface-mount assembly processes.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS-compliant construction supports environmental requirements for commercial products.
