• I/O Count  540 general‑purpose I/O pins to support extensive external interfacing and signal routing.
• Gate Equivalent  Approximately 3,000,000 gates providing a measure of overall device complexity and capacity.
• Package and Mounting  724‑BBGA (FCBGA) surface‑mount package; supplier device package 724‑BGA (35×35) for compact board integration.
• Power  Core supply voltage range 1.425 V to 1.575 V to match system power delivery requirements.
• Temperature and Grade  Commercial grade device with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Environmental Compliance  RoHS compliant for lead‑free manufacturing and regulatory alignment.

Typical Applications

• Custom logic and control  Implement complex state machines and control logic using the device's approximately 38,400 logic elements and on‑chip memory.
• High‑density I/O interfacing  Manage large numbers of external signals or parallel interfaces leveraging the 540 I/O pins.
• Embedded buffering and data paths  Use the approximately 0.655 Mbits of embedded RAM for packet buffering, FIFOs, or local data storage within the FPGA fabric.

Unique Advantages

• Highly integrated resources: The combination of logic elements and embedded memory reduces the need for external devices and simplifies board design.
• Extensive I/O capacity: 540 I/O pins enable direct interfacing to many peripherals and subsystems without additional multiplexing.
• Compact BGA footprint: 724‑BBGA (35×35) packaging delivers high density in a surface‑mount form factor suitable for space‑constrained PCBs.
• Commercial‑grade operating range: Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C, appropriate for a wide range of commercial electronics applications.
• Controlled core supply: Narrow core voltage range (1.425 V to 1.575 V) supports predictable power design and regulation strategies.
• RoHS compliant: Meets lead‑free manufacturing requirements for regulatory and environmental considerations.
