EP4SGX290FH29C3

The EP4SGX290FH29C3 is a Stratix® IV GX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) packaged in a 780‑ball BGA (FCBGA). It delivers a high logic capacity and substantial on‑chip RAM, plus a large I/O count suitable for board‑level integration.

Targeted at designs that require dense programmable logic, significant embedded memory, and extensive I/O connectivity, this commercial‑grade device supports a 0 °C to 85 °C operating range and RoHS compliance for environmentally conscious system design.

Key Features

• High Logic Capacity — 291,200 logic elements provide substantial programmable resource for complex digital systems and multi‑function consolidation.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 17.66 Mbits of on‑chip RAM enable buffering, packet storage and intermediate data handling without external memory.
• I/O and Packaging — 289 user I/Os in a 780‑ball BGA (FCBGA) package; supplier device package listed as 780‑HBGA (33×33) for straightforward board footprint planning. Surface‑mount mounting type simplifies PCB assembly.
• Power and Temperature — Core voltage supply range of 870 mV to 930 mV and a commercial operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C, allowing designers to plan power delivery and thermal management precisely.
• Series‑level System Blocks — The Stratix IV device handbook documents series features such as transceiver performance, PLL specifications, DSP block specifications and TriMatrix memory block specifications, providing architecture‑level details for system design.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant, supporting regulatory and environmental requirements for many commercial products.

Typical Applications

• High‑density logic designs — Consolidate complex control, glue logic and custom data paths within a single FPGA using the device’s large pool of logic elements.
• Signal processing and DSP acceleration — Leverage the Stratix IV series DSP block specifications for compute‑intensive signal processing tasks and algorithm acceleration.
• High‑I/O board systems — Use the 289 I/Os and FCBGA package for dense, board‑level interfacing including parallel and low‑pin‑count peripheral connectivity.
• Transceiver‑enabled communications — Designs that require transceiver functionality can reference the series’ transceiver performance specifications to architect serial links and high‑speed I/O.

Unique Advantages

• High integration density: 291,200 logic elements reduce the need for multiple devices and simplify system BOMs.
• Significant on‑chip memory: Approximately 17.66 Mbits of embedded RAM supports larger data buffers and on‑chip storage for lower latency operations.
• Extensive I/O: 289 I/Os provide flexibility to connect to a wide range of peripherals and interfaces without external expanders.
• Package options for reliable assembly: 780‑BBGA (FCBGA) / supplier 780‑HBGA (33×33) package supports standard surface‑mount PCB assembly processes.
• Clear power and thermal parameters: Defined core voltage range (870 mV–930 mV) and commercial temperature rating (0 °C–85 °C) aid in power‑delivery and thermal design decisions.
• Series documentation available: Stratix IV device handbook includes detailed PLL, transceiver, DSP and TriMatrix memory block specifications to guide system integration.
