EP4SGX290KF40C4G

The EP4SGX290KF40C4G is a high-density Field Programmable Gate Array from Intel, built on the Stratix IV device family architecture described in the manufacturer's device handbook. It provides a large logic fabric and substantial on-chip memory combined with a high I/O count, suited for complex digital designs that require significant gate density and flexible I/O integration.

Targeted at commercial applications, this device combines 291,200 logic elements, approximately 16.9 Mbits of embedded memory, and 744 I/O pins in a 1517-FBGA (40×40) surface-mount package, delivering a compact platform for high-performance system integration.

Key Features

• Core Logic  291,200 logic elements provide a large programmable fabric for implementing complex algorithms, control logic, and custom datapaths.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 16.9 Mbits of total on-chip RAM to support large buffers, FIFOs, and local data storage for high-throughput designs.
• I/O Capacity  744 I/O pins offer broad connectivity options for parallel interfaces, external memory buses, and board-level signal routing.
• Power Supply  Operates from a core voltage supply range of 870 mV to 930 mV, enabling designs that follow the device’s specified low-voltage core domain.
• Package & Mounting  1517-FBGA (40×40) FCBGA package, surface-mount, supporting high-density board layouts and reliable BGA mounting.
• Temperature & Grade  Commercial-grade operation from 0 °C to 85 °C for standard commercial applications and environments.
• Standards & Compliance  RoHS compliant to support environmentally conscious manufacturing and procurement.
• Stratix IV Family Capabilities  As described in the Stratix IV Device Handbook, the family includes extensive clocking resources, PLLs, DSP blocks, and high-speed transceiver features for complex system designs and protocol support.

Typical Applications

• High-performance data processing  Large logic capacity and embedded memory enable implementation of complex data-paths, parallel processing, and custom accelerators.
• Communications and protocol bridging  Extensive I/O and the Stratix IV family’s transceiver and clocking capabilities support protocol conversion and high-throughput interface designs.
• Prototyping and system integration  The high logic density and abundant I/O make this FPGA suitable for system prototyping where integration of multiple functions is required on a single device.

Unique Advantages

• High logic density: 291,200 logic elements enable consolidation of large functions that would otherwise require multiple devices, reducing board-level complexity.
• Substantial on-chip memory: Approximately 16.9 Mbits of embedded RAM reduces dependency on external memory for buffering and temporary storage.
• Extensive I/O connectivity: 744 I/O pins provide flexibility for interfacing to wide buses, parallel peripherals, and multiple external devices.
• Compact, board-friendly package: 1517-FBGA (40×40) FCBGA surface-mount package supports high-density PCB layouts and reliable assembly processes.
• Low-voltage core domain: Core supply range of 870 mV to 930 mV supports designs targeting modern low-voltage FPGA core requirements.
• Commercial-grade readiness: Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C operation and RoHS compliant for standard commercial product lines.
