EP20K30EFC324-1X

The EP20K30EFC324-1X is an Altera APEX-20K® field programmable gate array (FPGA) in a 324-ball BGA package. It provides 1,200 logic elements, 24,576 bits of on-chip RAM and up to 128 user I/O, delivering a compact programmable logic option for commercial-grade designs.

Designed for surface-mount assembly and operation on a low-voltage supply (1.71 V to 1.89 V) across a commercial temperature range (0 °C to 85 °C), this device targets applications that require moderate logic density, embedded memory, and a dense BGA footprint.

Key Features

• Core Resources — 1,200 logic elements and approximately 113,000 gates provide the device's programmable logic capacity for implementing custom combinational and sequential functions.
• Embedded Memory — 24,576 bits of on-chip RAM for localized data buffering, FIFOs, and small lookup tables.
• I/O Capacity — Up to 128 user I/O pins to support multiple parallel interfaces and external device connections.
• Package and Mounting — 324-BGA (supplier package: 324-FBGA, 19×19) in a surface-mount form factor to support compact board layouts.
• Power — Operates from a low-voltage supply range of 1.71 V to 1.89 V, enabling compatibility with low-voltage system domains.
• Operating Range — Commercial-grade temperature rating of 0 °C to 85 °C for standard commercial environments.
• Compliance — RoHS-compliant manufacturing status.

Typical Applications

• Embedded control logic — Implement custom control functions and state machines within commercial electronic products using available logic elements and on-chip RAM.
• Interface bridging — Provide programmable I/O and glue logic for protocol translation and signal routing with up to 128 I/O pins.
• Prototyping and development — Evaluate custom logic architectures and small to mid-size digital designs in a compact BGA package.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced resource set: 1,200 logic elements paired with 24,576 bits of embedded RAM delivers a practical mix of logic and memory for many mid-range designs.
• High I/O density: 128 I/O pins enable multiple parallel interfaces without external I/O expanders.
• Compact, surface-mount BGA: 324-BGA (324-FBGA, 19×19) package supports high-density PCB layouts while maintaining a commercial footprint.
• Low-voltage operation: Narrow supply window (1.71 V–1.89 V) for integration into low-voltage systems.
• Commercial temperature rating: 0 °C–85 °C suitability for standard commercial environments.
• RoHS compliant: Meets lead-free manufacturing requirements for regulatory and supply-chain compatibility.
