EP4SGX230FF35C2XG

The EP4SGX230FF35C2XG is an Intel Stratix IV family Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC designed for high-density, high-bandwidth digital designs. Documentation for the Stratix IV device family identifies features such as high-speed transceivers, embedded memory, and a flexible I/O architecture.

With a large logic resource pool and substantial on-chip RAM, this commercial-grade, surface-mount FCBGA device targets applications that require dense logic integration, wide I/O connectivity, and industry-standard FPGA core voltages and temperature ranges.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — Approximately 228,000 logic elements provide high integration density for complex FPGA implementations.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 17.5 Mbits of on-chip RAM to support buffering, packet processing, and DSP data storage.
• I/O Density — 564 available I/O pins to support broad interfacing and external memory or high-speed peripheral connections.
• Package — 1152-ball FBGA (35 × 35 mm) surface-mount package (1152-BBGA, FCBGA) for compact system integration.
• Power and Voltage — Core supply operating range of 870 mV to 930 mV to match Stratix IV device requirements.
• Operating Range — Commercial temperature grade with an operating range of 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Compliance — RoHS-compliant for regulatory and manufacturing considerations.

Typical Applications

• High-speed communications — Implement protocol engines and transceiver-based interfaces where Stratix IV documentation cites high-speed transceiver features and wide protocol support.
• Digital signal processing — Use the device’s large logic capacity and embedded memory to support DSP algorithms and data-path acceleration.
• External memory interfaces — Serve as a bridge or controller for external memory systems, leveraging the FPGA’s I/O resources and architecture described in the Stratix IV handbook.
• System integration and control — Central FPGA fabric for consolidating system logic, peripheral control, and custom interfaces in compact, surface-mount designs.

Unique Advantages

• High logic density: Approximately 228,000 logic elements enable implementation of complex state machines, accelerators, and large custom logic blocks.
• Substantial on-chip RAM: Approximately 17.5 Mbits of embedded memory reduces external memory dependence for many buffering and DSP tasks.
• Extensive I/O count: 564 I/O pins provide the flexibility to interface multiple peripherals, high-speed links, and memory buses without compromising board routing.
• Industry-standard packaging: 1152-FBGA (35 × 35 mm) surface-mount package supports dense PCB layouts and automated assembly.
• Commercial-grade readiness: 0 °C to 85 °C operating range and RoHS compliance align with mainstream product manufacturing and deployment requirements.
• Documented Stratix IV platform: Backed by the Stratix IV device handbook, providing architecture-level guidance for transceivers, memory interfaces, and clocking resources.
