Key Features

• Logic Capacity  15,600 logic elements distributed across 780 LABs for implementing sizeable combinational and sequential logic.
• Embedded Memory  419,328 total RAM bits of on-chip memory (approximately 0.419 Mbits) for data buffering, FIFOs, and local storage.
• I/O Resources  342 programmable I/O pins to support wide bus interfaces, parallel connectivity, and diverse signaling requirements.
• Package & Mounting  484-BBGA package; supplier device package listed as 484-FBGA (23×23). Surface-mount mounting type suitable for modern PCB assembly.
• Supply Voltage  Core operating range of 1.15 V to 1.25 V to match system power domains.
• Operating Temperature  Commercial operating range from 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Configuration & Test Support  Device handbook documents configuration options, IEEE 1149.1 JTAG boundary-scan support, and embedded logic analysis (SignalTap II) features.
• Architecture Elements  Stratix II architecture includes dedicated blocks such as digital signal processing resources, PLL and clock networks, multi-volt I/O support and on-chip termination as described in the device handbook.
• Environmental  RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Communications & Networking  High logic density and 342 I/Os support protocol bridging, packet processing, and custom interface implementations.
• Digital Signal Processing  On-chip RAM and documented DSP block architecture enable implementation of data buffering and processing pipelines.
• Prototyping & System Integration  Flexible configuration options, JTAG boundary-scan, and embedded logic analysis support make the device suitable for board-level prototyping and system integration tasks.
• Custom Control & Glue Logic  15,600 logic elements and abundant I/O allow consolidation of control, sequencing, and interface logic into a single programmable device.

Unique Advantages

• High logic density: 15,600 logic elements across 780 LABs deliver capacity for complex digital designs without immediate need for external logic.
• Ample on-chip memory: 419,328 RAM bits (approximately 0.419 Mbits) provide local storage for buffering, FIFOs, and small data structures.
• Extensive I/O count: 342 I/Os enable broad external connectivity and parallel interfaces, reducing board-level glue logic.
• Documented architecture features: Stratix II handbook coverage of PLLs, DSP blocks, multi-volt I/O, and configuration/testing options supports informed system design.
• Compact, manufacturable package: 484-BBGA / 484-FBGA (23×23) surface-mount package fits modern PCB assembly flows.
• Regulatory & environmental compliance: RoHS compliance supports use in assemblies targeting lead-free manufacturing processes.

Why Choose EP2S15F484C4?

The EP2S15F484C4 positions itself as a high-density Stratix II FPGA option for designs that require a balance of logic capacity, embedded memory, and a high number of I/Os within a compact surface-mount package.
