EP20K60EFC324-1

The EP20K60EFC324-1 is an APEX-20K® Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) supplied in a 324-ball FBGA package. It delivers reconfigurable digital logic with 2,560 logic elements, approximately 32,768 bits of embedded RAM, and 196 general-purpose I/O pins for flexible system integration.

Designed for commercial electronic applications, this device combines a compact 324-FBGA (19×19) footprint with low-voltage operation (1.71 V to 1.89 V) and RoHS compliance, making it suitable for space-constrained designs that require moderate programmable logic and memory resources.

Key Features

• Core Logic  Provides 2,560 logic elements (LEs) to implement custom digital functions, state machines, and glue logic in reconfigurable hardware.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 32,768 bits of on-chip RAM for small data buffers, FIFOs, or register files to support datapath and control logic.
• I/O Capacity  196 user I/O pins to interface with external peripherals, sensors, buses, and parallel or serialized interfaces.
• Package & Mounting  324-FBGA (19×19) BGA package in a surface-mount form factor for high-density PCB integration and reliable solder attachment.
• Power  Low-voltage core supply range from 1.71 V to 1.89 V to match modern system power rails and reduce power envelope.
• Operating Range & Grade  Commercial-grade device with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C for standard commercial environments.
• Environmental Compliance  RoHS compliant, aligning with common environmental and material requirements.

Typical Applications

• Consumer Electronics  Implement custom control logic, display drivers, or peripheral bridging where a compact FPGA with moderate logic and I/O is required.
• Communications Equipment  Handle protocol translation, interface buffering, or small-scale packet processing using available logic elements and embedded RAM.
• Embedded Control & Prototyping  Use as a flexible development platform for embedded controllers, I/O aggregation, or proof-of-concept hardware designs.
• Test & Measurement  Integrate custom timing, data capture, and signal conditioning control where reconfigurable logic and 196 I/O pins are beneficial.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory  With 2,560 logic elements and ~32,768 bits of RAM, the device supports a range of small to moderate complexity designs without excessive resource overhead.
• High I/O Count  196 I/O pins enable broad connectivity options for interfacing multiple peripherals or bus structures directly to the FPGA.
• Compact BGA Package  The 324-FBGA (19×19) footprint provides a high-density solution that conserves PCB area in compact assemblies.
• Low-Voltage Operation  Core supply range of 1.71 V to 1.89 V aligns with modern low-voltage systems, helping simplify power-supply planning.
• Commercial-Grade & RoHS Compliant  Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C operation and RoHS compliance for standard commercial product designs.
