It delivers a large programmable fabric with 92,000 logic elements, high I/O density and embedded memory, suitable for high-volume, high-speed, low-cost applications that require on-chip DSP, SERDES and flexible I/O.

Designed for system integration, this device combines a dense logic core, extensive I/O (490 pins) and on-chip memory to address communications, video, industrial and embedded system designs requiring robust temperature and supply operating ranges.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 92,000 logic elements to implement complex control, signal processing and protocol logic in a single device.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 4.53 Mbits of on-chip RAM for frame buffers, FIFOs and local data storage.
• High I/O Count — 490 user I/Os provided in the 1156-BBGA package to support extensive peripheral interfacing and board-level routing.
• High-Speed SERDES and Protocol Support — Family-level embedded SERDES channels and multi-protocol support for high-speed serial interfaces including PCI Express, Ethernet, CPRI and SMPTE (as defined by the ECP3 family).
• sysDSP and Hardware Multipliers — Dedicated DSP resources and 18×18 multiplier blocks (as specified for the ECP3-95 family) for efficient multiply-accumulate and signal-processing tasks.
• Clocking Resources — Multiple PLLs and DLLs (family-level support) to manage complex clock domains and high-speed interface timing.
• Power and Supply — Core supply range specified at 1.14 V to 1.26 V for predictable power integration into designs.
• Industrial Temperature Range — Rated for operation from −40 °C to 100 °C for deployment in industrial and demanding environments.
• Package and Mounting — 1156-FPBGA (35 × 35 mm) surface-mount package for high-density board designs.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS environmental requirements.

Typical Applications

• High-Speed Communications — Implement protocol bridging, packet processing and SERDES-based interfaces such as PCI Express, Ethernet and Serial RapidIO using on-chip SERDES and programmable logic.
• Broadcast and Video — Support SMPTE 3G and other video transport protocols with on-chip memory and DSP resources for buffering and real-time processing.
• Industrial Automation — Integrate control logic, motor and sensor interfacing, and deterministic I/O handling within an industrial-temperature FPGA.
• Embedded System Integration — Consolidate glue logic, accelerators and peripheral interfaces into a single FPGA for space- and cost-constrained designs.

Unique Advantages

• High Integration Density: 92,000 logic elements and substantial on-chip memory reduce external components and simplify board-level design.
• Multi-Protocol Serial Support: Embedded SERDES and family-level protocol support enable versatile connectivity options for networking and transport applications.
• DSP-Ready Architecture: Dedicated multipliers and sysDSP resources accelerate signal processing tasks while offloading the host CPU.
• Industrial Reliability: −40 °C to 100 °C operating range and surface-mount 1156-BBGA packaging support deployment in industrial environments.
• Controlled Power Integration: Defined core supply range (1.14 V to 1.26 V) helps simplify power-supply design and thermal planning.
• Regulatory and Environmental Compliance: RoHS compliance supports broader regional and environmental requirements.
