EP2S15F484C4N

The EP2S15F484C4N is a Stratix® II field programmable gate array (FPGA) offered in a 484-ball BGA package. It provides a balanced combination of programmable logic, embedded memory, and a high I/O count suitable for commercial-grade digital designs.

Built on the Stratix II device architecture, this part targets designs that require substantial on-chip logic and memory resources, flexible I/O, and support for on-device clocking and signal-processing primitives. It is supplied as a surface-mount 484-FBGA (23×23) package and is RoHS compliant.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 15,600 logic elements and 780 logic array blocks provide substantial programmable fabric for custom digital functions and control logic.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 0.4 Mbits (419,328 bits) of on-chip RAM suitable for buffers, FIFOs, and small data storage needs.
• High I/O Count — 342 general-purpose I/O pins to support wide parallel interfaces and multiple peripheral connections.
• Core Supply — Low-voltage core operation with a recommended supply range of 1.15 V to 1.25 V for the device core.
• Packaging & Mounting — 484-ball BGA package (supplier package: 484-FBGA, 23×23) designed for surface-mount assembly.
• Commercial Temperature Grade — Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C operating temperature for commercial applications.
• Stratix II Architecture — Device handbook details architecture elements such as logic array blocks, TriMatrix memory, DSP blocks, PLLs and clock networks, and multi-track interconnects for flexible timing and routing.
• Configuration & Test Support — Series-level features include IEEE 1149.1 JTAG boundary-scan, SignalTap II embedded logic analyzer support, and multiple configuration schemes for system integration.
• RoHS Compliant — Conforms to RoHS requirements for environmental compliance.

Typical Applications

• Memory interface controllers — On-chip memory resources and high I/O count facilitate external RAM interfacing and buffer management.
• Digital signal processing — Stratix II DSP block support and embedded RAM make the device suitable for signal processing functions and data-path acceleration.
• High-pin-count system controllers — 342 I/Os enable complex peripheral and bus interfacing in commercial embedded systems.

Unique Advantages

• Substantial programmable logic: 15,600 logic elements provide room to implement complex state machines, control logic, and custom accelerators.
• Integrated on-chip memory: Approximately 0.4 Mbits of embedded RAM reduces dependence on external memory for mid-sized buffering and storage tasks.
• Large I/O capacity: 342 I/Os allow flexible system-level connectivity and support for wide parallel interfaces without additional I/O expanders.
• Flexible timing and clocking: Stratix II architecture includes PLLs and hierarchical clock networks that enable refined clock domain design and distribution.
• Commercial temperature and RoHS compliance: Rated 0 °C to 85 °C and RoHS compliant for mainstream commercial electronics manufacturing.
• Surface-mount BGA package: 484-FBGA (23×23) delivers a compact footprint for space-constrained PCB layouts while providing high pin density.
