EP2S90F1508C4

The EP2S90F1508C4 is a Stratix® II field programmable gate array (FPGA) from Intel, designed for applications that require large logic capacity, extensive I/O and substantial on-chip memory. Built on the Stratix II architecture, the device targets high-density custom logic, complex I/O interfacing and systems that benefit from programmable, reconfigurable hardware.

With 90,960 logic elements, approximately 4.52 Mbits of embedded memory and 902 I/O pins in a 1508-ball FBGA package, this commercial-grade FPGA suits high-performance prototyping, communications and data-processing designs that require a compact surface-mount package and a 1.15–1.25 V core supply.

Key Features

• Core Capacity  90,960 logic elements arranged across 4,548 LABs to support large combinational and sequential designs.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 4.52 Mbits of on-chip RAM with the Stratix II TriMatrix memory architecture referenced in the device handbook for flexible memory partitioning and usage.
• I/O Density & Standards  902 I/O pins provide broad interfacing capability; device documentation includes support for Double Data Rate I/O, advanced I/O standards, multi‑volt I/O and on‑chip termination.
• Clocking & PLLs  Stratix II clocking features such as global and hierarchical clock networks and enhanced/fast PLLs are documented for designs requiring disciplined clock distribution and clock management.
• Configuration & Debug  Supports industry-standard configuration and test features documented in the handbook, including IEEE 1149.1 JTAG boundary-scan and the SignalTap II embedded logic analyzer for in-system debug and visibility.
• Power & Thermal  Core supply range of 1.15 V to 1.25 V and commercial operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C for typical commercial deployments.
• Package & Mounting  1508-BBGA (1508-FBGA, FC 40×40) surface-mount package optimized for compact board-level integration and high I/O density.
• Compliance  RoHS compliant, aligning with common electronic materials requirements.

Typical Applications

• High‑performance prototyping  Large logic capacity and abundant I/O make the FPGA suitable for validating complex ASIC/SoC algorithms and system integration before production.
• Communications & Networking  High I/O count and Stratix II I/O features enable protocol bridging, packet processing and custom interface implementations.
• Signal Processing  Significant on‑chip RAM and dense logic resources support DSP pipelines, buffering and custom data manipulation tasks.
• Test & Measurement  JTAG boundary-scan, embedded logic analysis and reconfigurable logic provide flexible instrumentation and in-field test capabilities.

Unique Advantages

• High logic density: 90,960 logic elements provide the capacity to implement large, partitioned designs without immediate migration to multiple devices.
• Substantial on‑chip memory: Approximately 4.52 Mbits of embedded RAM reduces external memory requirements for many buffering and local storage needs.
• Extensive I/O flexibility: 902 I/O pins and documented support for DDR and advanced I/O standards enable versatile interfacing and high throughput connections.
• Configurable clocking: Stratix II clocking structures and PLL options in the device handbook support complex clock domains and low-skew distribution.
• Compact, surface‑mount package: The 1508-FBGA (40×40) package delivers high pin count in a board-friendly form factor for dense system integration.
• Established documentation: Device details are covered in the Stratix II Device Handbook, providing designers with architecture, configuration and timing guidance.
