EPF10K50SFI484-2

The EPF10K50SFI484-2 is a FLEX-10KS family field programmable gate array from Altera, offering a mid-range, reprogrammable logic platform in a compact BGA package. It provides a balance of logic capacity, on-chip RAM and a large I/O count suitable for embedded and industrial applications that require flexible, programmable logic integration.

Designed for surface-mount assembly and rated for industrial temperature operation, this device targets designs that need up to 2,880 logic elements, approximately 40 kbits of embedded RAM, and extensive external connectivity while operating from a 2.375 V to 2.625 V supply.

Key Features

• Core Logic — 2,880 logic elements providing programmable combinational and sequential resources for custom logic implementation.
• On-chip Memory — Total RAM of 40,960 bits (approximately 40 kbits) for small data buffering, LUT-based storage and local state retention.
• I/O Density — 254 user I/O pins enabling extensive peripheral and bus interfacing without external I/O expanders.
• Gate Count — Approximately 199,000 gates to express moderate-complexity digital designs and glue logic.
• Power Supply — Core voltage specified at 2.375 V to 2.625 V to match system power rails and support predictable power budgeting.
• Package & Mounting — 484-BBGA package (supplier device package: 484-FBGA, 23×23) with surface-mount mounting for high-density PCB layouts.
• Industrial Temperature Grade — Specified operating range from −40 °C to 85 °C for use in industrial environments.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS environmental compliance requirements.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control — Industrial automation and control systems that require programmable logic operating across −40 °C to 85 °C and industrial-grade reliability.
• I/O-Intensive Interfaces — Systems that need broad external connectivity for sensors, buses or parallel interfaces, leveraging the 254 available I/O pins.
• Embedded Logic and Glue — On-board signal conditioning, protocol bridging and custom state machines implemented using the device’s 2,880 logic elements and embedded RAM.
• Compact, Surface-Mount Designs — Applications that require a compact BGA footprint for space-constrained PCBs while retaining programmable flexibility.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic Capacity: 2,880 logic elements and ~199,000 gates provide a mid-range resource set for integrating moderate-complexity functions without oversizing the design.
• Significant I/O Count: 254 I/O pins reduce the need for external interface components and simplify board-level connectivity for multi-peripheral systems.
• On-Chip Memory: Approximately 40 kbits of embedded RAM supports local buffering and state storage, reducing dependence on external memory for small data blocks.
• Industrial Robustness: Rated for −40 °C to 85 °C and marked as industrial grade, making it suitable for harsher ambient conditions and extended operational use.
• Compact Packaging: 484-BBGA / 484-FBGA (23×23) footprint enables high-density PCB layouts while providing reliable surface-mount assembly.
• Standards-Friendly Supply: RoHS compliance supports regulatory and environmental requirements for modern electronic products.
