EP2C5Q208C7N

The EP2C5Q208C7N is a Cyclone® II field programmable gate array (FPGA) in a 208-BFQFP surface-mount package. It delivers moderate logic density and on-chip resources suited for low-cost embedded processing and DSP-oriented solutions.

Designed for applications that require configurable logic, embedded memory and flexible I/O in a compact commercial-grade package, this device balances integration and power efficiency with standards-based configuration and clocking features.

Key Features

• Core Logic — 4,608 logic elements distributed across 288 logic array blocks (LABs) to implement custom digital functions and control logic.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 0.12 Mbits (119,808 bits) of on-chip RAM for buffering, FIFOs and small data storage requirements.
• I/O Capacity — 142 I/O pins available in the 208-BFQFP package for flexible external interfacing and system integration.
• Configurable Clocking & PLLs — Integrated global clock network and PLL support for synchronized, multi-clock designs (as documented in Cyclone II device handbook).
• Embedded DSP Resources — Device documentation references embedded multipliers and DSP-oriented routing to support arithmetic and signal-processing functions.
• Configuration & Test — Supports standard configuration and IEEE 1149.1 (JTAG) boundary-scan for programming and device testing.
• Power Supply — Core voltage supply range of 1.15 V to 1.25 V for the FPGA core.
• Package & Mounting — 208-BFQFP (supplier device package: 208-PQFP, 28×28) surface-mount package optimized for compact board layouts.
• Commercial Temperature Grade — Rated for operation from 0 °C to 85 °C for commercial applications.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS environmental requirements.

Typical Applications

• Low-Cost Embedded Processing — Implement control logic, state machines and protocol handling where moderate logic density and on-chip RAM simplify board-level design.
• Low-Cost DSP Solutions — Use on-chip multipliers and embedded memory to implement basic filtering, signal conditioning and arithmetic blocks for cost-sensitive signal-processing tasks.
• Memory and Interface Bridging — Serve as an interface controller or bridge between external memory and peripherals using available I/O and built-in routing resources.
• I/O-Intensive Control — Provide programmable I/O and timing control for sensor interfacing, user interfaces or peripheral aggregation in compact systems.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic Density: 4,608 logic elements provide a practical level of integration for mid-range designs without unnecessary complexity.
• Compact Surface-Mount Package: 208-BFQFP (28×28 PQFP footprint) enables high I/O count in a space-efficient SMD form factor.
• Integrated Timing Resources: Documented global clock network and PLL support help simplify multi-clock domain designs and timing management.
• Commercial Temperature Range: Operation from 0 °C to 85 °C aligns with a wide range of consumer and commercial electronics use cases.
• Standard Configuration & Test: JTAG boundary-scan and standard configuration schemes facilitate development, programming and board-level testing.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance supports environmentally conscious design and assembly processes.
