EP20K30EFC324-2X

The EP20K30EFC324-2X is an APEX-20K® field programmable gate array (FPGA) from Altera, provided in a 324-ball BGA package. It offers a balanced combination of logic capacity, on-chip memory, and I/O density for commercial-grade embedded logic and control applications.

With 1,200 logic elements, approximately 24,576 bits of embedded RAM and 128 general-purpose I/O, this device targets designs that require moderate programmable logic, local memory, and a compact surface-mount footprint.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 1,200 logic elements enabling implementation of glue logic, state machines, and modest custom logic blocks.
• On-Chip Memory — Approximately 24,576 bits of embedded RAM for small buffers, FIFOs, and local data storage close to the logic.
• I/O Count — 128 programmable I/O pins to support parallel interfaces, control signals, and peripheral connectivity.
• Gate Count — 113,000 gates for an additional perspective on overall device complexity and integration potential.
• Power Supply — Operates from a 1.71 V to 1.89 V supply range to match system power domains requiring this voltage window.
• Package & Mounting — 324-ball BGA (324-FBGA, 19×19) surface-mount package for compact board-level integration.
• Commercial Temperature Grade — Rated for operation from 0 °C to 85 °C, suitable for commercial embedded systems.
• Regulatory — RoHS compliant for use in lead-free assembly processes.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Control — Use the 1,200 logic elements and 128 I/O to implement custom control logic, state machines, and interface glue in embedded systems.
• Signal Routing and Glue Logic — Ideal for consolidating discrete logic, level management, and interconnect functions in compact designs thanks to its BGA package and surface-mount mounting.
• Local Buffering — On-chip RAM provides local buffering and small FIFO storage for peripheral data handling and timing alignment.
• Prototyping and Evaluation — The device’s accessible logic and I/O density suit proof-of-concept and low-to-medium complexity prototype implementations.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory: 1,200 logic elements combined with approximately 24,576 bits of embedded RAM support a wide range of small to medium-scale programmable functions without external memory.
• Compact Surface-Mount Package: 324-BGA (324-FBGA, 19×19) enables high-density board designs while maintaining a small PCB footprint.
• Flexible I/O Count: 128 general-purpose I/O pins provide the connectivity needed for parallel interfaces and multiple peripherals.
• Commercial Temperature Rating: 0 °C to 85 °C rating aligns with typical commercial electronics deployment environments.
• RoHS Compliance: Lead-free, RoHS-compliant construction supports modern, environmentally conscious manufacturing processes.
