EP4S40G2F40I1G

The EP4S40G2F40I1G is an Intel Stratix IV family FPGA optimized for designs that require substantial logic density, embedded memory, and flexible I/O. It combines a high logic-element count with on-chip RAM and Stratix IV architecture elements documented in the device handbook.

This device is targeted at applications that leverage high-speed transceivers, external memory interfaces, digital signal processing and complex system integration where a combination of logic capacity, on-chip memory and robust I/O count are important design drivers.

Key Features

• Core logic — 228,000 logic elements provide ample programmable logic capacity for complex digital designs.
• Logic blocks — 21,248 logic blocks support dense implementation of control, state machines and datapaths.
• Embedded memory — Approximately 17.5 Mbits of on-chip RAM for buffering, FIFOs and local storage.
• I/O capacity — Up to 654 general-purpose I/Os to accommodate wide external interfaces and parallel buses.
• Power supply — Core voltage range of 0.92 V to 0.98 V for device operation.
• Thermal and grade — Industrial-grade operation with an operating temperature range of −40 °C to 100 °C.
• Package and mounting — 1517-BBGA / FCBGA supplier package (1517-FBGA, 40×40), surface-mount for board-level integration.
• Stratix IV architecture — Device handbook references architecture features including high-speed transceiver support, digital signal processing (DSP) blocks, PLLs and comprehensive clock networks.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• High-speed communications — Implement high-bandwidth serial links and protocol bridging using the Stratix IV transceiver and I/O capabilities.
• Memory interface controllers — Use on-chip RAM together with external memory interfaces for buffering, caching and data movement tasks.
• Signal processing and DSP — Deploy DSP blocks and the device’s logic capacity for real-time filtering, transforms and numeric processing.
• System integration — Consolidate multiple control, interface and timing functions into a single FPGA to reduce board complexity.

Unique Advantages

• High logic capacity: 228,000 logic elements enable large-scale designs and complex state machines without immediate escalation to multiple devices.
• Substantial on-chip memory: Approximately 17.5 Mbits of embedded RAM reduces dependence on external memory for mid-sized buffering and packet handling.
• Extensive I/O count: 654 I/Os support wide parallel buses, multiple peripherals and flexible board-level interfacing.
• Industrial temperature rating: −40 °C to 100 °C operating range supports deployment in temperature-challenging environments.
• Stratix IV feature set: Architecture-level features such as high-speed transceivers, DSP blocks and PLLs provide building blocks for bandwidth- and timing-sensitive applications.
• Compact package: 1517-FBGA (40×40) surface-mount package enables high-density PCB implementations.
