EP2S15F672I4N

The EP2S15F672I4N is an Intel Stratix® II field programmable gate array (FPGA) supplied in a 672-ball BGA package for surface-mount assembly. It integrates 15,600 logic elements, approximately 0.42 Mbits of embedded memory, and 366 user I/O pins to address demanding industrial embedded designs.

Architected for applications that require high logic density, significant on-chip memory and abundant I/O, this FPGA delivers a balance of integration and configurability while operating over an industrial temperature range and RoHS-compliant supply requirements.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity  15,600 logic elements provide a substantive fabric for implementing complex custom logic, control state machines, and datapath functions.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 0.42 Mbits of on-chip RAM supports buffering, lookup tables, and small frame storage directly inside the fabric.
• I/O Count  366 user I/Os enable broad external connectivity for high-pin-count interfaces and parallel buses.
• Package & Mounting  672-BBGA (supplier package: 672-FBGA, 27×27) suitable for surface-mount PCB assembly and dense board layouts.
• Power Supply  Core supply operating range from 1.15 V to 1.25 V, allowing designers to plan accurate power routing and regulation.
• Industrial Temperature Range  Rated for operation from −40 °C to 100 °C, supporting deployment in industrial environments.
• Standards & Compliance  RoHS compliant for environmental and assembly process compatibility.
• Device Family Resources  Stratix II family documentation covers architecture, DSP blocks, PLLs, fast/high-speed I/O, and configuration/testing features for system design reference.

Typical Applications

• High-Speed Communications  Uses the device's high I/O count and Stratix II high-speed I/O architecture for protocol implementation, bridging, and data-path aggregation.
• Signal Processing and DSP  Leverages on-chip logic and embedded memory together with the Stratix II DSP block architecture described in the device handbook for real-time processing tasks.
• Industrial Control & Automation  Industrial-grade temperature rating and numerous I/Os accommodate control logic, sensor interfacing, and deterministic I/O management.
• Memory Interfaces & Bus Bridging  On-chip resources and documented external memory interface capabilities enable implementation of memory controllers and bus converters.

Unique Advantages

• Substantial Logic Density: 15,600 logic elements enable implementation of mid-sized to complex FPGA designs without splitting functionality across multiple devices, reducing BOM complexity.
• Significant On-Chip RAM: Approximately 0.42 Mbits of embedded memory reduces external memory dependency for many buffering and LUT needs, improving latency and board-level integration.
• High I/O Count: 366 I/Os provide flexibility to connect multiple peripherals, parallel interfaces, or multi-channel front-ends directly to the FPGA fabric.
• Industrial Readiness: Rated for −40 °C to 100 °C operation, matching the needs of industrial environments and extended-temperature deployments.
• Compact BGA Packaging: The 672-BBGA (27×27) package supports dense PCB layouts while delivering the pin count required for complex systems.
• Vendor Documentation: Comprehensive Stratix II device handbook material on architecture, PLLs, I/O and configuration supports design integration and verification activities.
