EP20K200EFC484-1

The EP20K200EFC484-1 is an APEX-20KE family FPGA from Intel, delivering a MultiCore architecture that integrates lookup-table (LUT) logic, product-term logic, and embedded memory blocks for system-on-a-programmable-chip designs. This device targets applications that require a balance of logic capacity, embedded RAM and a high I/O count within a compact 484-BBGA package.

With 8,320 logic elements, approximately 0.106 Mbits of embedded memory, and 376 user I/O pins, the EP20K200EFC484-1 is suited for mid-density programmable logic tasks where flexible I/O standards, clock management and power efficiency matter.

Key Features

• Core architecture — MultiCore architecture integrating LUT logic, product-term logic and embedded system blocks (ESBs) for register-intensive and combinatorial functions.
• Logic capacity — 8,320 logic elements and a maximum system gate equivalent of 526,000 provide mid-range programmable logic resources.
• Embedded memory — 106,496 bits of on-chip RAM (approximately 0.106 Mbits) available for FIFOs, dual-port RAM or CAM implementations using ESBs.
• I/O and packaging — 376 user I/O pins in a 484-BBGA package (supplier package 484-FBGA, 23×23) with surface-mount mounting suitable for compact board designs.
• MultiVolt I/O support — I/O interface support for 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V and 5.0 V signaling to interface with a wide range of peripherals and memories.
• Clock management — Up to four PLLs, a built-in low-skew clock tree, up to eight global clock signals, and features such as ClockLock, ClockBoost and ClockShift for flexible phase, multiplication and delay control.
• High-speed interface support — I/O features and signaling support documented for high-speed external memories and bus applications, including PCI 3.3-V operation at 33 or 66 MHz (per device family documentation).
• Power and temperature — Designed for low-power operation with an internal supply range of 1.71 V to 1.89 V and a commercial-grade operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Regulatory — RoHS compliant, supporting environmentally regulated manufacturing requirements.

Typical Applications

• Data buffering and memory bridging — Embedded RAM and ESBs can implement FIFOs and dual-port RAM for interfacing between different clock domains and memory types.
• High-speed I/O and bus control — MultiVolt I/O and documented PCI 3.3-V operation enable use in bus-bridging, peripheral control and interface conversion tasks.
• Signal processing and control logic — LUT-based logic and dedicated carry chains support register-intensive functions and arithmetic building blocks for communication and embedded control subsystems.
• Custom embedded systems — The combination of logic elements, embedded memory and PLL-based clock management suits mid-density system-on-chip implementations and prototyping.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced mid-range capacity: 8,320 logic elements and ~0.106 Mbits of embedded memory provide a practical resource set for midsize designs without excessive board-level complexity.
• Flexible I/O connectivity: Support for multiple voltage domains (1.8 V–5.0 V) simplifies integration with legacy and modern peripherals, reducing interface translator requirements.
• Advanced clocking: Up to four PLLs and multiple clock features (ClockLock, ClockBoost, ClockShift) enable precise timing control for multi-domain systems.
• Compact, surface-mount package: The 484-BBGA (484-FBGA 23×23) package offers high I/O density in a footprint suitable for space-constrained PCBs.
• Power-aware design: Low-power operation modes and a narrow internal supply range (1.71 V–1.89 V) support energy-conscious system designs.
• Standards-oriented I/O: I/O feature set and family documentation include compliance notes for high-speed memory interfaces and PCI signaling, helping streamline system connectivity.
