EPF10K50SBC356-1

The EPF10K50SBC356-1 is a field programmable gate array (FPGA) from Altera, offered in a 356-LBGA package. It provides a mid-range programmable logic solution with 2,880 logic elements, approximately 40.96 kbits of on-chip RAM and 220 general-purpose I/O pins.

Designed for commercial-temperature applications, this surface-mount FPGA suits designs that need a configurable logic fabric with a moderate I/O footprint, defined power rails (2.375 V to 2.625 V), and a compact BGA package.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity  Offers 2,880 logic elements, enabling moderate-density programmable logic implementations and custom digital functions.
• Embedded Memory  Includes 40,960 bits of on-chip RAM (approximately 40.96 kbits) for small buffers, state machines, and local storage.
• I/O Resources  Provides 220 I/O pins to support multiple peripheral connections and parallel interfaces within a single device.
• Gate Count  Approximately 199,000 gates of logic capacity for combinational and sequential logic requirements.
• Package and Mounting  356-LBGA package (supplier device package: 356-BGA, 35×35) optimized for surface-mount assembly and compact board layouts.
• Power  Operates from a defined core supply range of 2.375 V to 2.625 V to match system power rail requirements.
• Operating Range and Grade  Commercial grade device rated for operation from 0 °C to 70 °C.
• Regulatory  RoHS compliant for lead-free manufacturing processes.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Control and Prototyping  Use the device where moderate programmable logic and on-chip RAM are needed to implement control logic, glue logic, or prototype digital designs.
• I/O-Intensive Modules  Suitable for subsystems that require a substantial number of general-purpose I/Os (220 pins) for parallel sensors, display interfaces, or peripheral aggregation.
• Custom Logic and Glue Functions  Ideal for designs that require custom combinational/sequential logic, protocol bridging, or signal conditioning in a compact BGA footprint.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory:  2,880 logic elements combined with ~40.96 kbits of embedded RAM provide a practical balance for medium-complexity functions without external memory.
• High I/O Count in Compact Package:  220 I/Os delivered in a 356-LBGA (35×35) package enable dense connectivity while conserving PCB area.
• Defined Power Envelope:  Specified core voltage range (2.375 V–2.625 V) simplifies power-rail planning and integration into existing systems.
• Commercial-Grade Reliability:  Rated for 0 °C to 70 °C operation, suitable for a wide range of commercial applications and environments.
• RoHS Compliant:  Supports lead-free manufacturing processes and regulatory requirements for consumer and commercial products.
