Key Features

• MultiCore FPGA Architecture APEX 20K family architecture integrating look-up table (LUT) logic, product-term logic, and embedded memory for mixed register- and memory-intensive functions.
• Logic Density 4,160 logic elements and up to 263,000 system gates provide mid-range capacity for complex glue logic and control functions.
• Embedded Memory Total on-chip RAM: 53,248 bits (approximately 0.053 Mbits) to implement FIFOs, dual-port RAMs, and other memory functions.
• I/O Capability 246 user I/O pins support high pin-count designs and multiple interface standards as supported by the APEX 20K family.
• Clock Management Family-level support for flexible clock management including multiple phase-locked loops (PLLs), low-skew clock tree, and multiple global clock signals for synchronous system design.
• High-speed Interface Support APEX 20K family features include support for high-speed external memories and industry interfaces suitable for bridging and memory controller applications.
• Package and Mounting 356-LBGA (356-BGA, 35×35) surface-mount package provides a compact footprint for board-level integration.
• Power and Environmental Voltage supply range 1.71 V to 1.89 V and industrial operating temperature range from −40 °C to 100 °C. RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• High-speed Interface Bridging Use the device’s I/O density and family-level support for high-speed memory and peripheral interfaces to implement protocol bridges and interface controllers.
• Embedded Memory and Buffering Implement FIFOs, small RAM buffers, and shared memory structures using the on-chip embedded memory for data flow and buffering tasks.
• Industrial Control and I/O Aggregation Leverage 246 I/Os and industrial temperature rating to aggregate sensors, actuators, and control logic in harsh environments.
• System Glue Logic and Custom Logic Deploy the 4,160 logic elements to consolidate glue logic, timing-critical state machines, and custom processing in compact systems.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory Capacity: 4,160 logic elements paired with approximately 53,248 bits of embedded RAM deliver a balanced resource mix for control-and-data applications.
• High I/O Count: 246 user I/Os allow flexible connection to peripherals, memory devices, and board-level buses without external multiplexing.
• Compact BGA Packaging: 356-LBGA (35×35) package reduces board area while supporting high pin density for space-constrained designs.
• Industrial Temperature Range: Rated from −40 °C to 100 °C to meet temperature requirements for industrial deployments.
• Family-Level Clock and Interface Features: APEX 20K family capabilities—such as PLL-based clock management and support for high-speed memory interfaces—enable robust timing and data-path implementations.
• Regulatory-Friendly Supply Chain: RoHS compliance supports use in assemblies requiring lead-free components.
