EP2S180F1508I4

The EP2S180F1508I4 is a Stratix® II family FPGA packaged in a 1508-ball FCBGA designed for industrial-grade applications. It combines a very large logic capacity with extensive on-chip memory and high pin-count I/O to support complex, high-density digital designs.

With 179,400 logic elements, approximately 9.38 Mbits of embedded memory and 1,170 I/O pins, this device targets designs that require large programmable fabric, broad I/O connectivity, and documented Stratix II architecture features such as PLLs, DSP blocks and advanced I/O structures.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 179,400 logic elements to implement large-scale digital systems and complex custom logic functions.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 9.38 Mbits of on-chip RAM for buffering, lookup tables and state storage without external memory.
• I/O Density — 1,170 I/O pins to support wide parallel interfaces and multiple high-pin-count peripherals.
• Power and Voltage — Operates from a core voltage supply range of 1.15 V to 1.25 V, enabling predictable power-domain design.
• Industrial Temperature Range — Rated for operation from −40 °C to 100 °C for deployment in industrial environments.
• Package & Mounting — Surface-mount 1508-ball BGA (FCBGA) package; supplier package listed as 1508-FBGA, FC (40×40) for board-level integration.
• Stratix II Architecture — Device handbook details architecture elements such as PLLs and clock networks, DSP blocks, TriMatrix memory, MultiTrack interconnect and an advanced I/O structure for timing and interface flexibility.
• Configuration & Debug Support — Documentation describes standard Stratix II configuration and testing features including JTAG boundary-scan and embedded logic analysis capabilities.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control & Automation — Large logic capacity and industrial temperature rating make this FPGA suitable for factory automation, motion control and PLC-style systems requiring robust operation.
• High-Density Embedded Systems — Use the device where substantial on-chip RAM and many logic elements are needed for custom processors, protocol engines or data path consolidation.
• Custom Hardware Acceleration — The documented DSP resources and clocking architecture support implementation of application-specific accelerators and signal-processing pipelines.

Unique Advantages

• Large programmable fabric: 179,400 logic elements provide the headroom to consolidate multiple functions into a single device and reduce board-level component count.
• Significant on-chip memory: Approximately 9.38 Mbits of embedded RAM reduces dependence on external memory for many buffering and lookup requirements.
• Extensive I/O availability: 1,170 I/O pins enable wide parallel interfaces and connectivity to multiple peripherals or high-pin-count systems.
• Industrial operating range: −40 °C to 100 °C rating supports deployment in harsher environments where extended temperature tolerance is required.
• Documented Stratix II feature set: Architecture and device handbook coverage of clock networks, DSP blocks, memory architecture and I/O features helps accelerate design planning and integration.
