EP4SGX180KF40C4G

The EP4SGX180KF40C4G is a commercial-grade Field Programmable Gate Array delivered in a 1517‑pin FCBGA package for surface-mount applications. It offers a high logic capacity and substantial on-chip RAM, making it suitable for demanding, high-bandwidth digital designs.

Built around the Stratix IV device family architecture (Stratix IV Device Handbook), the device targets applications that require large programmable logic resources, extensive I/O connectivity, and on-chip memory for buffering and data processing.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 175,750 logic elements to implement complex digital functions and custom accelerators.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 13.95 Mbits of on-chip RAM (13,954,048 total RAM bits) for buffering, FIFOs, and local storage.
• I/O Density — 744 general-purpose I/Os to support wide external interfacing and parallel data paths.
• Device Family Architecture — Stratix IV device family features referenced in the device handbook, including support for high-speed transceivers, DSP blocks, clock networks, and external memory interfaces.
• Package and Mounting — 1517‑BBGA / 1517‑FBGA (40×40) FCBGA package, surface-mount construction for compact board-level integration.
• Power — Core voltage supply range of 870 mV to 930 mV to match system power domains and enable predictable core performance.
• Operating Range — Commercial operating temperature from 0 °C to 85 °C for standard commercial applications.
• Compliance — RoHS‑compliant construction for regulatory and manufacturing alignment.

Typical Applications

• High‑Bandwidth Networking — Leverage the device family’s high-speed transceiver and I/O capabilities for packet processing, protocol bridging, and line-card functions.
• Signal and Data Processing — Large logic and embedded memory capacity support DSP blocks and custom processing pipelines for real‑time data handling.
• Video and Imaging Systems — On-chip RAM and extensive I/O enable frame buffering, format conversion, and parallel video processing tasks.
• Test & Measurement Equipment — Flexible programmable logic and high I/O density allow precise timing, custom measurement logic, and interface adaptation.

Unique Advantages

• High Logic Density: 175,750 logic elements provide the resources needed for complex SoC-like implementations without external ASICs.
• Substantial On‑Chip Memory: Approximately 13.95 Mbits of embedded RAM reduce dependence on external memory for many buffering and cache functions.
• Extensive I/O: 744 I/Os permit wide parallel buses, multiple peripheral interfaces, and flexible board-level partitioning.
• Compact, Robust Package: 1517‑pin FCBGA (40×40) offers a high pin-count footprint in a surface‑mount form factor for dense PCB layouts.
• Stratix IV Architecture: Family-level features documented in the device handbook—such as high-speed transceivers, DSP support, and clocking resources—inform system-level design and integration.
• Regulatory Fit for Commercial Products: Commercial-grade rating (0 °C to 85 °C) and RoHS compliance align with standard commercial production and environmental requirements.
