Overview of EP3SE260H780C4LN – Stratix® III E Field Programmable Gate Array, 780-BBGA (FCBGA)
The EP3SE260H780C4LN is a Stratix® III E field programmable gate array (FPGA) supplied in a 780-ball FCBGA package. It delivers a high count of logic elements and embedded memory with a broad I/O complement for complex programmable logic designs.
With approximately 255,000 logic elements and about 16.67 Mbits of on-chip RAM, this commercial-grade device targets designs that require substantial logic capacity, on-chip memory, and flexible I/O in a compact surface-mount package.
Key Features
- Core Logic Approximately 255,000 logic elements providing large programmable logic capacity for complex digital functions.
- Embedded Memory Approximately 16.67 Mbits of on-chip RAM to support buffering, FIFOs, and embedded data storage without external memory.
- I/O Density 488 user I/O pins to interface with a wide range of peripherals and parallel/serial data paths.
- Power Supports a core voltage supply range of 0.86 V to 1.15 V, enabling designs that require specific core power rails.
- Package and Mounting 780-ball BGA FCBGA package (supplier device package: 780-HBGA, 33×33) in a surface-mount form factor for PCB assembly.
- Operating Conditions Commercial operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C and commercial grade designation.
- Compliance RoHS compliant for materials and environmental considerations.
Typical Applications
- High-density logic systems Large-scale programmable logic implementations that need extensive logic elements and on-chip memory for signal processing and complex control.
- Custom protocol bridging Use the device’s high I/O count to implement protocol converters and interface logic between multiple subsystems.
- Board-level FPGA subsystems Integrate as the primary programmable device on a surface-mount PCB where package density and board assembly compatibility are required.
Unique Advantages
- Substantial logic capacity: The approximately 255,000 logic elements enable implementation of large, partitioned designs without immediate reliance on multiple devices.
