EP20K200FI484-3

The EP20K200FI484-3 is an APEX 20K family FPGA manufactured by Intel, delivering a balance of logic density, embedded memory, and flexible I/O in a compact 484-BBGA package. It implements the APEX 20K MultiCore architecture with LUT logic, product-term logic, and embedded system blocks (ESBs) to support both register‑intensive and memory‑centric functions.

With 8,320 logic elements, approximately 0.106 Mbits of embedded RAM, up to 382 user I/Os and a rated operating range of -40°C to 100°C, this device targets industrial designs requiring moderate gate counts, substantial I/O and integrated memory resources.

Key Features

• Core Architecture  MultiCore APEX 20K architecture combining LUT logic, product-term logic and embedded system blocks (ESBs) to support a mix of register‑intensive and memory functions.
• Logic Density  8,320 logic elements and a maximum of 526,000 system gates provide capacity for mid‑range programmable logic designs.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 106,496 bits of on‑chip RAM enabling FIFOs, dual‑port RAM and CAM implementations within the device.
• I/O Capability  Up to 382 user I/Os to support broad peripheral and external-memory interfacing requirements.
• Clock and Timing  Flexible clock management inherited from the APEX 20K family, including support for multiple PLLs and multiple global clock signals for deterministic clock distribution.
• Package  484‑BBGA package (supplier device package: 484‑FBGA, 23×23) for compact board integration and high pin count in a small footprint.
• Voltage and Power  Specified supply range of 2.375 V to 2.625 V; APEX 20K devices are documented with low‑power design considerations.
• Industrial Temperature Range  Rated for operation from -40°C to 100°C, suitable for a wide set of industrial environments.
• Standards and Compliance  RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control  Implement motor control logic, sensor aggregation, and deterministic I/O handling using the device’s logic elements and extensive I/O count at industrial temperature ratings.
• Communications Equipment  Use for protocol bridging, interface conditioning and moderate‑density packet processing where embedded RAM and flexible clocking are beneficial.
• Memory Interface and Buffering  Implement DDR/ZBT interface logic and FIFO buffers leveraging the device’s embedded RAM and fast I/O paths.
• Custom Logic and Prototyping  Deploy as a replaceable hardware block for prototype systems or custom IP integration requiring up to 8,320 logic elements and hundreds of I/Os.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory: 8,320 logic elements combined with approximately 0.106 Mbits of embedded RAM let you implement mixed logic-and-memory functions without external components.
• High I/O Count in a Compact Package: Up to 382 user I/Os in a 484‑BBGA (484‑FBGA 23×23) footprint reduces board area while maintaining connectivity for peripherals and memory interfaces.
• Industrial Reliability: Rated operation from -40°C to 100°C supports deployment in demanding industrial environments.
• Flexible Clock Management: Family-level clock features, including multiple PLLs and global clock signals, simplify timing architectures for synchronous systems.
• Low‑Power Design Considerations: Device supply range and APEX 20K family low‑power characteristics help manage system power in embedded applications.
• RoHS Compliant: Conforms to lead‑free and restricted substances requirements for modern electronics manufacturing.
