EP20K100EBC356-2

The EP20K100EBC356-2 is an APEX-20KE family FPGA in a 356-ball BGA package, offering a balance of logic capacity, embedded memory and flexible I/O for commercial-grade applications. It implements the APEX MultiCore architecture with look-up table (LUT) logic and embedded system blocks (ESBs) to support both register‑intensive and memory/combinatorial functions.

This device targets designers who need up to 4,160 logic elements, approximately 53,248 bits of on-chip RAM, and 246 user I/O pins in a compact 35×35 356-BGA package, with low-power operation at a 1.71–1.89 V internal supply and an ambient operating range of 0 °C to 85 °C.

Key Features

• Core Logic  4,160 logic elements and a maximum of 263,000 system gates provide programmable resources for combinational and sequential designs.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 53,248 bits of embedded RAM implemented in ESBs to build FIFOs, dual-port RAM and CAM structures.
• I/O Capacity & Flexibility  246 user I/O pins with MultiVolt I/O interface support for mixed-voltage systems and programmable output slew-rate and clamp options.
• Clock Management  Integrated clock resources from the APEX family include up to four PLLs, a built-in low-skew clock tree, and features for programmable clock phase and delay shifting.
• Memory and Interface Support  Family-level support for high-speed external memories (including DDR SDRAM and ZBT SRAM) and advanced I/O standards useful for system-level interfaces.
• Power & Voltage  Designed for low-power operation with an internal voltage supply range of 1.71 V to 1.89 V and MultiVolt I/O support for interfacing to 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V and 5.0 V signals (family-level capability).
• Package & Mounting  Surface-mount 356-LBGA package (356‑BGA, 35×35) optimized for compact board layouts.
• Commercial Temperature Grade  Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C ambient operation to suit standard commercial electronics applications.
• Standards & System Integration  Family feature set includes embedded JTAG boundary-scan and dedicated low-latency interconnect (FastTrack) for predictable timing.

Typical Applications

• Interface and Bridge Logic  Implement protocol bridging, bus interfacing and custom I/O adaptation using the device’s 246 I/O pins and MultiVolt I/O capability.
• Memory Controllers and Buffers  Use embedded RAM and ESBs to build FIFOs and dual-port memories for buffering and high-speed memory interfacing.
• Control and Timing Systems  Leverage multiple PLLs and the low-skew clock tree for clock distribution, multiplication/division and phase shifting in timing-critical designs.
• Custom Logic and Glue  Deploy the 4,160 logic elements to implement glue logic, state machines, and peripheral controllers in compact commercial products.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory  A combination of 4,160 logic elements and ~53,248 bits of embedded RAM enables mixed compute-and-buffer functions without external memory for many designs.
• Flexible I/O Integration  246 user I/Os with MultiVolt support simplify integration with a range of external devices and voltage domains.
• Integrated Clocking  Up to four PLLs and programmable clock features reduce the need for external clock management components.
• Compact BGA Package  The 356‑ball BGA (35×35) delivers a high-pin-count solution in a compact footprint for space-constrained assemblies.
• Commercial-Grade Reliability  Rated for standard commercial temperature ranges (0 °C to 85 °C) and RoHS compliant construction for broad electronic product integration.
