EP2S30F672I4N Présentation

The Altera (Intel) EP2S30F672I4N is a Stratix II family Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) housed in a 672-ball FineLine BGA (FCBGA) package measuring 27 mm x 27 mm, with 500 general-purpose I/Os and 33,880 logic elements (LEs) fabricated on a 90 nm process node. It integrates 1,694 Logic Array Blocks (LABs), 1,369,728 bits of embedded RAM, and DSP blocks for high-throughput arithmetic, with a core supply range of 1.15 V to 1.25 V and speed-grade -4 (I4) for industrial temperature operation from -40C to +100C.

A Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is a type of programmable logic device (PLD) belonging to the broader hierarchy of integrated circuits > logic ICs > programmable logic > FPGA. Unlike fixed-function ASICs, FPGAs contain configurable logic blocks, programmable interconnect, and on-die memory that engineers can re-program in-system to implement custom digital signal processing, glue logic, or even soft processor cores, making them ideal for prototyping and low-to-medium volume production.

Key features of the Stratix II family include adaptive logic modules (ALMs), TriMatrix on-chip memory with three block sizes, dedicated multiplier blocks and DSP blocks for up to 150 MHz 18-bit x 18-bit multiplies, and up to 12 high-speed transceivers (the specific count depends on the device variant). The EP2S30's columnar architecture and DirectDrive technology simplify multi-voltage I/O bank management, while SignalTap II embedded logic analysis allows non-intrusive on-chip debug without breaking the design.

Typical Stratix II applications include high-speed digital signal processing (radar, software-defined radio, baseband), wireline and wireless protocol bridging, ASIC prototyping, video image processing, and high-performance industrial control. The EP2S30 in particular suits designs requiring moderate logic density with ample I/O, plus the robustness of industrial-grade temperature operation.

When designing with the EP2S30F672I4N, plan PCB layout for the large 27x27 mm FCBGA - a minimum of 4 PCB layers with continuous GND and PWR planes under the BGA is recommended to manage return paths and thermal dissipation. Use Altera's Quartus II design suite for synthesis, place-and-route, and timing closure.

What is the logic element count of EP2S30F672I4N?

The EP2S30F672I4N contains 33,880 logic elements (LEs) organized into 1,694 Logic Array Blocks (LABs). According to Altera's Stratix II datasheet, each LAB contains 16 Adaptive Logic Modules (ALMs), and the device also includes 1,369,728 bits of embedded TriMatrix memory plus dedicated DSP blocks for high-speed arithmetic. This density places the EP2S30 in the mid-range of the Stratix II family.

What package does the EP2S30F672I4N use?

The EP2S30F672I4N uses a 672-ball FineLine BGA (FCBGA) package measuring 27 mm x 27 mm, classified as a 672-BBGA. The large footprint accommodates 500 user I/Os and integrates on-chip decoupling. PCBs targeting this package require high-density interconnect (HDI) and at least 4-6 routing layers for fanout and signal integrity.

Is the EP2S30F672I4N still in production?

The EP2S30F672I4N is obsolete and no longer in production. Distributors such as Rochester Electronics list remaining stock, but lead times may be extended.

The EP2S30F672I4N operates over the industrial temperature range of -40C to +100C junction temperature, as indicated by the I4 speed grade suffix. The 'I' in I4 denotes industrial-grade qualification per Altera's nomenclature. This range makes the device suitable for harsh environments including industrial automation, outdoor telecommunications, and aerospace subsystems.

Where to buy EP2S30F672I4N online at the best price?

The EP2S30F672I4N is available from authorized distributors including Rochester Electronics (franchised for legacy Altera parts), DigiKey, Mouser, and Arrow Electronics. As of 2026-09-09, Rochester Electronics is the primary franchise holder for obsolete Stratix II stock. Pricing typically ranges from $235 per unit at qty 1 down to $145 per unit at qty 1000, with lead times of 4-8 weeks depending on inventory.

What is the lead time for EP2S30F672I4N orders?

Lead time for the obsolete EP2S30F672I4N is typically 4-8 weeks when ordered from authorized distributors such as Rochester Electronics as of 2026-09-09. Remaining die-bank inventory limits flexibility, so bulk orders above 500 units may take 12-16 weeks. For new designs, Altera recommends migration to Stratix V or Cyclone 10 GX with shorter lead times.

EP2S30F672I4N vs EP2S30F672C5N - which is better for industrial use?

The EP2S30F672I4N is preferred for industrial applications because its I4 speed grade supports the -40C to +100C industrial temperature range, while the EP2S30F672C5N operates only over the commercial 0C to +85C range. Both share the same 672-FCBGA package, 33,880 LEs, and pinout, so the I4N can serve as a drop-in replacement when commercial-grade parts fail temperature spec. Choose I4N for any non-room-temperature deployment.

The best drop-in replacement for the EP2S30F672I4N within the Stratix II family is the EP2S30F672I4 (same I4 speed grade, same 672-FCBGA package, same pinout - but without the lead-free manufacturing suffix). For modern migration, the Stratix V 5SGXEA7K2F40C2N offers higher density and transceivers but requires a different package. Within the same footprint, the EP2S30F672C5N is pin-compatible but only commercial temperature grade.

Can the EP2S30F672I4N be replaced by a Xilinx or Lattice FPGA?

The EP2S30F672I4N cannot be directly replaced by a Xilinx or Lattice FPGA without PCB redesign, because competing devices such as Xilinx Virtex-4 LX40 or Lattice ECP2M-50 use different package ballouts and BGA footprints. Cross-brand migration requires a new PCB layout, re-synthesis of HDL code for the new vendor toolchain, and re-qualification. Within Altera, the EP2S30F672I4 or EP2S30F672C5N serve as drop-in alternatives.

When should I choose EP2S30F672I4N over a Cyclone series FPGA?

Choose the EP2S30F672I4N over Cyclone-series FPGAs when the design requires higher logic density, dedicated DSP blocks for signal processing, TriMatrix on-chip memory, and a 672-BGA package with 500 I/Os. Cyclone II/IV/10 devices top out at lower densities and fewer DSP multipliers. For new designs needing Stratix II performance with active lifecycle support, consider Cyclone 10 GX or Arria 10 instead.

What is the maximum I/O count of the EP2S30F672I4N?

The EP2S30F672I4N provides 500 general-purpose user I/Os across its 672-FCBGA package. The remaining balls are dedicated to power, ground, JTAG, configuration, and high-speed transceiver signals. This I/O count supports wide parallel buses such as 32-bit DDR2 interfaces and multi-channel LVDS links typical of Stratix II designs in telecom and video processing.

Is the EP2S30F672I4N RoHS compliant?

Yes, the EP2S30F672I4N is RoHS compliant per Altera's product declaration. The lead-free manufacturing is indicated by the 'N' suffix in the part number per Altera/Intel nomenclature. The device also complies with REACH regulation. Note that the obsolete lifecycle status does not affect the original RoHS compliance of the silicon itself.

How much embedded memory does the EP2S30F672I4N have?

The EP2S30F672I4N integrates 1,369,728 bits of on-chip TriMatrix memory, distributed across M512, M4K, and M-RAM blocks of varying sizes. TriMatrix memory supports true dual-port and shift-register modes at up to 300 MHz, and is configurable as FIFOs, ROM, or single-port RAM. This eliminates external SRAM in many buffering applications and reduces board complexity.

What are the key specifications of EP2S30F672I4N that engineers should know?

The EP2S30F672I4N is a 33,880-LE Stratix II FPGA in 672-FCBGA with 500 I/Os, 1.37 Mbit embedded RAM, 1,694 LABs, 90 nm process, 1.15-1.25 V core supply, and -40C to +100C industrial temperature range. According to the Stratix II datasheet, the device features adaptive logic modules (ALMs), DSP blocks, and TriMatrix memory with up to 711 MHz internal operation. Lifecycle is obsolete - confirm availability before sourcing.

Guide de sélection

Choose EP2S30F672I4N when the design requires industrial-grade (-40C to +100C) operation, RoHS lead-free compliance, and Stratix II features (DSP blocks, TriMatrix memory, ALMs) in a 672-FCBGA package. Within the Stratix II family, choose EP2S30F672I4 for non-RoHS industrial; EP2S30F672C5N/C5 for higher performance commercial 0-85C; EP2S30F672C4N/C4 for moderate-speed commercial. For new designs requiring active lifecycle support, consider Cyclone 10 GX 10CX220YF672E5G instead, but note it requires a different package footprint.

Notes de conception

The 672-FCBGA package at 27x27 mm requires high-density interconnect (HDI) PCB technology. Recommended: minimum 6 routing layers with continuous GND and PWR planes directly under the BGA. Use 1 oz copper on outer layers and 0.5 oz on inner layers. BGA pad pitch is 1.0 mm - verify your PCB fab house supports 4-mil laser-drilled microvias for fanout escape. Place 0.1uF and 0.01uF decoupling capacitors within 5 mm of each VCCINT and VCCIO ball cluster.

Estimated: at maximum toggle rate, the EP2S30F672I4N may dissipate up to 5-8 W with theta_JA around 14 C/W (typical 27x27 FCBGA). Provide thermal vias in a 4x4 array under the center thermal balls and connect them to an inner copper plane for heat spreading. Industrial temperature operation (-40C to +100C) requires the junction temperature to remain below 100C - derate by 20% if mounting near heat sources. Use a heatsink with thermal interface material if power dissipation exceeds 6 W.

Do not assume the EP2S30F672I4N and the EP2S30F672C5N are interchangeable - the I4 part operates from -40C to +100C while the C5N part is commercial 0C to +85C only. Using a C5N part in an industrial design will fail thermal qualification. Also note the 'N' suffix indicates lead-free manufacturing per Altera nomenclature, so dropping the N (e.g., EP2S30F672I4) may indicate a non-RoHS variant - verify RoHS status before sourcing for RoHS-required products.
