• Package & Mounting  780-BBGA (FCBGA) package, surface-mount mounting type, suitable for compact PCB integration where high pin-count BGA packages are required.
• Power Supply Range  Core voltage support from 1.425 V to 1.575 V to match system power domains and ensure correct device operation within specified limits.
• Industrial Temperature Range  Specified operation from −40 °C to 100 °C for deployment in industrial environments with extended ambient conditions.
• Family-level Architecture (Series Datasheet)  Series documentation highlights Stratix architecture elements such as logic array blocks, memory modes, PLLs and clock networks, DSP block interfaces, and advanced I/O structure including DDR and differential support.
• Configuration & Test Support  Family documentation references JTAG boundary-scan support, SignalTap II embedded logic analysis, multiple configuration schemes, and tools for in-system configuration and testing.
• Reliability & Diagnostic Features  Series features include temperature sensing and automated upset detection capabilities described in the device handbook for system diagnostics and monitoring.

Typical Applications

• High-density digital processing  Implement complex combinational and sequential logic, custom datapaths, and control logic using the device’s 18,460 logic elements and on-chip memory.
• Memory-intensive buffering and packet handling  Utilize approximately 1.67 Mbits of embedded RAM for packet buffering, FIFOs, and temporary storage in data-forwarding or interface logic.
• Multi-interface systems  Leverage 586 I/O pins and the FCBGA package to connect multiple external devices, peripherals, and high-speed I/O channels on compact PCBs.
• Industrial control and automation  The industrial-grade temperature range (−40 °C to 100 °C) supports deployment in factory-floor equipment, motor controllers, and process-control systems.

Unique Advantages

• Large programmable fabric: 18,460 logic elements let you consolidate multiple functions into a single device, reducing board count and simplifying system architecture.
• Substantial on-chip memory: Approximately 1.67 Mbits of embedded RAM reduces reliance on external memory for many buffering and table storage requirements.
• High I/O count in compact package: 586 I/O pins in a 780-ball FCBGA (29×29) footprint enable dense interconnect while preserving board real estate.
