EP2AGX45CU17C6N

The EP2AGX45CU17C6N is a commercial-grade Arria II GX FPGA from Intel, providing a programmable logic platform with substantial on‑chip memory and a moderate I/O complement. It delivers a balance of logic capacity, embedded memory, and I/O for designs requiring flexible, reconfigurable hardware in commercial electronic systems.

Key on-chip resources include 42,959 logic elements, approximately 3.5 Mbits of embedded memory, and 156 general-purpose I/Os, all packaged in a 358-ball FCBGA surface-mount package suitable for compact board designs.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 42,959 logic elements and 1,805 logic blocks to implement complex programmable logic and control functions.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 3.5 Mbits of on-chip RAM for buffering, look-up tables, and state storage.
• I/O — 156 user I/O pins to support a variety of external interfaces and peripheral connections.
• Power — Core supply specified at 870 mV to 930 mV for the device core.
• Package & Mounting — 358-ball LFBGA / 358-UBGA FCBGA package (17 × 17) with surface-mount mounting for dense PCB integration.
• Operating Range — Commercial temperature grade with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant, supporting regulatory requirements for lead-free assembly.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Systems — Implement custom control logic, protocol offload, and peripheral aggregation using the device’s sizeable logic and memory resources.
• Communications Equipment — Leverage the abundant I/O and programmable logic for interface bridging, packet processing, and custom I/O timing.
• Industrial Control (Commercial Grade) — Deploy in commercial industrial applications where commercial temperature range and reprogrammability are suitable for control and monitoring tasks.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Resource Mix: Combines tens of thousands of logic elements with multi-megabit embedded memory to support both control logic and data buffering on a single device.
• Generous I/O Count: 156 I/Os simplify board-level design by reducing the need for external I/O expanders in many applications.
• Compact, Surface-Mount Package: 358-ball FCBGA (17 × 17) enables high-density PCB layouts while supporting robust board-level assembly.
• Commercial Temperature Rating: Specified 0 °C to 85 °C operation aligns with standard commercial electronics deployments.
• Regulatory Ready: RoHS compliance helps meet environmental requirements for lead-free manufacturing.
