EP2SGX60CF780C4

The EP2SGX60CF780C4 is a commercial-grade Stratix® II GX FPGA manufactured by Intel. It implements a scalable, high-performance logic array with the Stratix II GX architecture and series-level high-speed serial transceiver technology.

Designed for communications and high-throughput digital systems, this device targets high-speed backplane interfaces, chip-to-chip links, and protocol-bridging applications where integrated transceivers, on-chip memory, and large logic capacity are required.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 60,440 logic elements, with 3,022 LABs supporting complex combinational and sequential logic implementations.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 2.54 Mbits of on-chip RAM for buffering, FIFOs and packet/data storage.
• I/O — 364 I/O pins supporting a variety of single-ended and differential interfaces as enabled by the Stratix II GX architecture.
• High-speed Transceiver Architecture — Stratix II GX series transceivers providing clock-and-data recovery and support for serial data rates up to 6.375 Gbps (series capability described in the device handbook).
• DSP and Clocking Resources — Series-level features include dedicated high-speed DSP blocks for multiplies and MACs and up to four enhanced PLLs for advanced clock management and reconfiguration (as described in the Stratix II GX device documentation).
• Power and Supply — Core voltage supply range 1.15 V to 1.25 V for integration into modern low-voltage systems.
• Package — 780-ball FBGA package (29 × 29 mm supplier package) in a 780-BBGA case, optimized for high-density board-level integration.
• Operating Conditions — Commercial temperature grade with operating range 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• High-speed Backplane Systems — Use the device's high logic capacity and Stratix II GX transceivers to implement protocol bridging and packet switching on system backplanes.
• Chip-to-Chip Interconnect — Leverage integrated transceivers and clock-data recovery for robust, high-bandwidth serial links between devices.
• Network and Telecom Interfaces — Implement protocol IP cores and SERDES-based interfaces such as PCI Express, Gigabit Ethernet, and other serial protocols supported by the Stratix II GX family.
• High-performance DSP and Filtering — Use on-chip DSP blocks and embedded memory to implement multiply-accumulate operations and FIR filtering in communications and signal processing designs.

Unique Advantages

• Substantial Logic Resources: 60,440 logic elements enable large, integrated digital designs without partitioning across multiple devices.
• Integrated High-speed Serial Capability: Stratix II GX transceiver technology supports multi-gigabit serial protocols and dynamic reconfiguration for flexible link management.
• On-chip Memory for Throughput: Approximately 2.54 Mbits of embedded RAM provides local buffering and FIFO capability to support high-bandwidth data paths.
• Flexible Clocking and DSP Support: Enhanced PLLs and dedicated DSP resources (series-level features) simplify clocking strategies and accelerate arithmetic-heavy functions.
• Compact, High-density Package: 780-ball FBGA (29×29) offers a dense footprint and 364 I/Os for complex board-level connectivity.
• Commercial Temperature and Low-voltage Core: 0 °C to 85 °C operating range and 1.15–1.25 V core supply make the device suitable for a wide range of commercial systems.
