EP20K1500EBC652-3

The EP20K1500EBC652-3 is an APEX-20KE® Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) from Altera, delivered in a 652‑ball BGA (45×45 mm) package. It provides substantial on-chip logic and I/O capacity—51,840 logic elements and 488 I/Os—combined with approximately 0.44 Mbits of embedded RAM for on-chip data storage.

Designed for commercial-grade applications, the device operates from a 1.71 V to 1.89 V supply and across a 0 °C to 85 °C temperature range. The package is surface-mount and the device is RoHS compliant.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 51,840 logic elements provide a high-density fabric for custom digital logic, state machines, and glue logic implementations.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 0.44 Mbits of on-chip RAM supports buffering, LUT-based storage, and local data handling without external memory.
• I/O Count — 488 I/Os enable large external interface support for parallel sensors, buses, and peripheral connectivity.
• Package and Mounting — 652‑BGA (45×45) package in a surface-mount form factor supports compact board layouts and high-density routing.
• Power — Operates from a 1.71 V to 1.89 V core supply, allowing designers to plan power delivery and sequencing to match system requirements.
• Commercial Temperature Grade — Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C operation to meet general commercial-environment requirements.
• Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliant for environmentally conscious designs and supply-chain requirements.

Typical Applications

• Commercial Embedded Systems — Implement control logic, protocol bridging, and custom processing using the device's large logic and memory resources within commercial product temperature limits.
• High‑I/O Interface Boards — Leverage 488 I/Os for extensive external connectivity such as parallel buses, sensor arrays, or multi-channel interfaces.
• Prototyping and Evaluation — Use available logic density and on-chip RAM to validate complex logic designs and accelerate development cycles.

Unique Advantages

• Substantial Logic Density: 51,840 logic elements enable implementation of complex custom logic and multi-function designs without immediate need for multiple devices.
• Generous I/O Count: 488 I/Os simplify board-level integration by reducing the need for external I/O expanders or multiple FPGAs.
• Compact BGA Package: 652‑BGA (45×45) packaging provides a space-efficient solution for high-density PCB layouts.
• On‑Chip Memory: Approximately 0.44 Mbits of embedded RAM supports local buffering and state retention, minimizing external memory dependence.
• Regulatory and Mounting Fit: RoHS compliance and surface-mount packaging ease manufacturing and environmental-conformance planning for commercial products.
