EP3SL50F484C3G 概要
A Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is a semiconductor integrated circuit built around a matrix of configurable logic blocks (CLBs), programmable interconnects, embedded memory (BRAM/M9K/M144K), DSP slices, and high-speed transceivers. FPGAs occupy a tier above general-purpose microcontrollers and below custom ASICs: they offer hardware-level parallelism, deterministic latency, and the ability to be re-programmed in the field. The Stratix III family specifically targets high-end DSP, ASIC prototyping, and high-speed serial I/O designs where density and signal integrity matter more than absolute power minimization.
Key features of the EP3SL50F484C3G include 47,500 logic elements, 2,184,192 embedded RAM bits (distributed across multiple M9K blocks), 384 (18x18) multiplier blocks for DSP, and embedded transceivers supporting multi-gigabit serial protocols. The device also integrates PLLs for clock management, PCI Express hard IP blocks, and supports external memory interfaces (DDR/DDR2/QDRII+) through dedicated PHY. The 484-FBGA package provides a compact footprint suitable for high-performance PCB designs with controlled-impedance routing.
The architecture combines a logic fabric based on ALMs (Adaptive Logic Modules), a hierarchical interconnect, dedicated multiplier/adder DSP blocks, and embedded transceivers capable of operation up to several Gbps. Compared to Stratix IV successors, Stratix III L retains the 40 nm process node but is widely used in mature designs where the IP and tool flow are already validated.
Typical applications include ASIC prototyping, high-speed wireline backplane bridging, software-defined radio (SDR) baseband processing, video broadcast infrastructure, and military/aerospace signal processing. The 484-FBGA package suits designs where board real estate allows a moderate BGA footprint with full signal-integrity stack-up.
When designing with this part, ensure the PCB stack-up supports the transceiver channel loss budget and that decoupling follows Intel/Altera's recommended PDN pattern. Quartus II is the legacy tool flow for Stratix III L (current Intel Quartus Prime no longer fully supports Stratix III - verify tool availability before new design starts).

With Quartus II support and well-characterized IP cores, design teams partition ASIC RTL across multiple FPGAs using standard HDL-to-FPGA flows. The 484-FBGA package keeps board complexity manageable versus higher-density Stratix devices while still providing 296 user I/Os for multi-chip interconnect bridging.
おすすめ
High-Speed Wireline Bridging
The EP3SL50F484C3G is well matched to wireline backplane bridging applications where embedded transceivers, PLLs, and ample user I/O are required. The L-family transceivers support multi-gigabit protocols (Interlaken, Serial RapidIO, custom SERDES) commonly used in telecom framer/mapper designs. With 296 user I/Os and BGA escape routing, the device can fan out to multiple SFP+ or QSFP cages for optical aggregation. The Quartus II transceiver toolkit provides eye-diagram and pre-emphasis calibration scripts critical for 6+ Gbps backplane links. Designers should plan PCB stack-up per Altera AN558 reference design for transceiver loss budget.
おすすめ
Software-Defined Radio Baseband
With 384 18x18 DSP multipliers and abundant block RAM, the EP3SL50F484C3G serves as a baseband processing engine for software-defined radio platforms handling LTE, WiMAX, or proprietary waveforms. The DSP blocks deliver fixed-latency MAC/multiplier throughput, while embedded memory holds time-domain sample buffers. PLLs provide the multiple clock domains needed for ADC/DAC interface and digital up/down conversion. The 484-FBGA package supports fine-pitch BGA escape to FMC connectors for modular ADC/DAC daughtercards. Reference designs exist for channelizer/upconverter IP using Altera DSP Builder blocks.
おすすめ
Video Broadcast Infrastructure
Broadcast video routers, format converters, and multiviewers benefit from the EP3SL50F484C3G's combination of high I/O count, embedded memory, and SERDES bandwidth. The 296 user I/Os support multiple SDI/HDMI input/output streams, and embedded transceivers carry SDI (SMPTE 424M) or compressed video over fibre. BRAM tiles hold frame buffers and audio/video sync FIFOs needed for re-clocking and format conversion. The C3 commercial speed grade is adequate for 1080p/4K streams at typical broadcast frame rates. The 484-FBGA footprint integrates into standard broadcast PCIe-card or chassis form factors.

設計ノート
Estimated: At full Stratix III L utilization (47.5K LE, 384 DSP blocks active), junction power can reach 8-12 W. The 484-FBGA package requires a thermally enhanced PCB stack-up with at least 4 thermal vias under the central BGA thermal balls and a copper spreader on the inner layers. For chassis designs without airflow, derate utilization by 20-30% to keep junction below 100C. Always run Quartus II PowerPlay early in the design cycle.
The 484-FBGA uses 1.0 mm pitch BGA balls; PCB fabrication requires 4-6 mil via-in-pad with copper-filled cap for transceiver escape. Use Intel/Altera's Stratix III L board design guidelines (resource center) to define stack-up: 8-12 layer board with continuous GND plane adjacent to signal layers carrying transceivers. Maintain 100-ohm differential impedance for SERDES pairs and 50-ohm single-ended for clocks. Decoupling: place 0.1uF and 0.01uF X7R capacitors within 100 mil of every power pin.
Transceiver channels up to several Gbps require loss budgeting per Intel/Altera application note AN558. Insert pre-emphasis and equalization settings via ALTGX megafunction in Quartus II. For multi-board systems, use AC-coupled SERDES with external coupling capacitors (typically 100 nF) on each TX/RX pair. Verify eye-mask compliance at the receiver with IBIS-AMI simulations before PCB fabrication.
Quartus II is the only fully-supported design tool for Stratix III L; current Intel Quartus Prime versions no longer include Stratix III device support in their default installers. Verify Quartus II 13.1 (or the latest Stratix III service pack) is installed and that license is current before committing to a new design. NRND status means no new silicon revisions - lifetime buy quantities should be planned for production.
DDR2/DDR3 external memory interfaces use dedicated DQS pins that must be routed with matched trace lengths (<25 mil skew on byte lanes). Reference Altera External Memory Interface Handbook chapter 4 for the Stratix III L variant. Place PLL feedback traces symmetrically and isolate from noisy digital routes. Keep high-speed clocks on inner stripline layers between continuous GND planes.
コンプライアンス情報
RoHS compliant per the 'G' suffix in the MPN (Intel/Altera green/lead-free designation). AEC-Q100 is not applicable to FPGAs; for automotive-grade logic equivalents, consider Cyclone V / Arria V Auto variants.
