EP1S40F1020C6

The EP1S40F1020C6 is a Stratix® Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC from Intel (Altera) built on the Stratix device family. It combines a high logic-element count with substantial on-chip RAM and extensive I/O to support complex digital designs.

Targeted at commercial-temperature systems, this device provides 41,250 logic elements, approximately 3.42 Mbits of embedded memory, and up to 773 I/O pins, making it suitable for applications that require dense logic integration, sophisticated clocking, and flexible I/O architectures.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity 41,250 logic elements (cells) for implementing large-scale combinational and sequential logic networks.
• Embedded Memory Approximately 3.42 Mbits of on-chip RAM for packet buffering, FIFOs, lookup tables, and state storage.
• I/O Density Up to 773 I/O pins to support wide buses, multi-channel interfaces, and high pin-count system integration.
• Package 1020-BBGA package (supplier package: 1020-FBGA, 33 × 33) optimized for surface-mount assembly.
• Power Supply Core voltage range 1.425 V to 1.575 V for device operation.
• Operating Conditions Commercial grade operation from 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Configuration & Debug Stratix family configuration and testing features including embedded logic analysis and JTAG-based support (referenced in device handbook).
• Clocking and Timing Stratix architecture includes PLLs and hierarchical clocking networks to support complex timing domains (as documented in the device handbook).
• RoHS Compliance Device is RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• High-speed communications — Use the device's dense logic and high I/O count for protocol processing, framing, and multi-lane interface implementations.
• Digital signal processing — Leverage embedded memory and the Stratix DSP-oriented architecture for signal filtering, encoding/decoding, and data manipulation pipelines.
• Memory interface controllers — Implement external RAM interfacing and on-chip buffering using available memory resources and I/O bandwidth.
• Custom compute acceleration — Map application-specific accelerators and data-paths into the 41,250 logic elements and dedicated clocking resources.

Unique Advantages

• High integration density: 41,250 logic elements enable consolidation of complex logic into a single device, reducing board-level components.
• Substantial on-chip RAM: Approximately 3.42 Mbits of embedded memory supports large buffers, FIFOs, and local data storage without external RAM.
• Extensive I/O capability: 773 I/O pins facilitate wide parallel interfaces and multi-channel designs, simplifying system-level routing.
• Flexible packaging: 1020-BBGA / 1020-FBGA (33 × 33) surface-mount package supports dense board layouts and standardized assembly processes.
• Comprehensive clocking and debug: Stratix device family features such as PLLs, hierarchical clock networks, and embedded logic analysis enable complex timing management and in-system visibility.
• Commercial-grade robustness: Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C operation and RoHS compliant for mainstream commercial deployments.
