EP20K200EFC484-3

The EP20K200EFC484-3 is an APEX-20KE series FPGA IC delivering a balanced mix of logic capacity, embedded memory and flexible I/O in a 484-ball BGA package. It implements the APEX MultiCore architecture with LUT-based logic and embedded system blocks (ESBs), enabling system-on-programmable-chip (SOPC) integration for embedded and communications-oriented designs.

With 8,320 logic elements, approximately 0.106 Mbits of embedded memory and 376 user I/O pins, this device targets applications that require moderate gate counts, dense I/O and multi‑voltage I/O interfacing while operating from a 1.71 V–1.89 V core supply in commercial temperature environments.

Key Features

• Core & Architecture  APEX MultiCore architecture integrating LUT logic and embedded system blocks (ESBs) for a blend of register-intensive and memory/combinatorial functions.
• Logic Capacity  8,320 logic elements and up to 526,000 system gates provide room for medium-density programmable logic implementations.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 0.106 Mbits of on-chip RAM supported by ESBs for FIFOs, dual-port RAM and content-addressable memory (CAM) functions.
• I/O & Interfaces  376 user I/O pins with MultiVolt I/O support (series-level support for 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V and 5.0 V levels) and programmable I/O features for flexible interfacing.
• Clock Management  Series-level clock features include multiple PLLs, a low-skew clock tree and support for multiple global clock signals to simplify system timing.
• Power & Compliance  Core supply specified at 1.71 V to 1.89 V, designed for low-power operation; RoHS compliant.
• Package & Mounting  484-ball BBGA package (supplier device package: 484-FBGA, 23×23) with surface-mount mounting for compact board integration.
• Temperature & Grade  Commercial-grade device rated for 0 °C to 85 °C operation.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Systems  Implement control logic, peripheral interfaces and SOPC-style integration where combined logic and embedded memory reduce external component count.
• Communications & Networking  Use the device’s flexible I/O and clock management for protocol bridging, packet handling and medium-density data-path functions.
• Memory Interface & Buffering  Leverage ESB-based RAM and FIFO structures for buffering and interfacing with external memory and streaming data sources.
• Prototyping & System Integration  Ideal for development of medium-complexity programmable functions in desktop and rack-mounted prototypes where surface-mount BGA integration is required.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory:  8,320 logic elements combined with embedded RAM allow mixed logic-plus-memory designs without heavy reliance on external memory.
• Flexible I/O Options:  376 user I/Os and series-level MultiVolt support enable direct interfacing to a wide range of peripheral voltages and signaling standards.
• Integrated Clock Management:  Multiple PLLs and a dedicated low-skew clock structure simplify clock distribution for synchronous designs.
• Compact, Surface-Mount Package:  484-BBGA (23×23) package supports high pin density in a small board footprint for space-constrained applications.
• RoHS Compliant:  Meets lead-free and restricted materials requirements for environmentally conscious designs.
