EP2SGX90EF1508C4 개요

The Altera EP2SGX90EF1508C4 is a Stratix II GX family field-programmable gate array (FPGA) delivering 90,960 equivalent logic elements, 4,520,448 bits of embedded memory, and 12 embedded transceiver channels operating up to 6.375 Gbps. Built on a 90 nm CMOS process and housed in a 1508-ball flip-chip BGA (FCBGA) package measuring 40 x 40 mm with a 1 mm ball pitch, it combines high-density logic with multi-gigabit serial I/O for wired communications and high-speed signal-processing applications.

A Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is a semiconductor integrated circuit that engineers can configure after manufacturing using a hardware description language (HDL). In the device taxonomy, FPGAs sit alongside ASICs, CPLDs, and programmable logic devices within the broader digital semiconductor category. Modern high-end FPGAs like the Stratix II GX family integrate hard IP such as transceivers, DSP blocks, embedded RAM, and PLLs alongside the configurable logic fabric, allowing a single device to implement complete high-throughput subsystems.

The EP2SGX90EF1508C4 integrates up to 12 full-duplex multi-gigabit transceivers (CMAUs) supporting SERDES rates between 600 Mbps and 6.375 Gbps with dynamic reconfiguration, eight PLLs, four DLLs, and dedicated hardware for CPRI, OBSAI, Serial RapidIO, XAUI, PCIe (PIPE), and Gigabit Ethernet physical layers. Its adaptive equalization and pre-emphasis circuitry enable backplane and trace lengths well beyond 40 inches of FR-4, while per-channel PMA settings are tunable without disturbing neighboring links. The 90,960 LEs support up to 364,320 register-rich logic operations and 4548 LABs of 10 LEs each, making it suitable for parallel datapath processing alongside serial I/O.

Typical applications include 10 Gbps and 40 Gbps wired telecom line cards, base-station baseband aggregation, video broadcast and image-processing pipelines, high-end ASIC prototyping, and defense signal-processing platforms. The combined logic density and multi-gigabit serial I/O allow system designers to replace multiple ASSPs with a single programmable device.

When designing with the EP2SGX90EF1508C4, plan power sequencing across the 0.9 V core, 1.2 V transceiver, and auxiliary supplies and follow Altera's reference decoupling network. Quartus II version 7.2 or later is required for bitstream generation, and the FCBGA-1508 package demands a multilayer PCB with controlled-impedance traces for transceiver channels and matched-length clock routing for reliable multi-gigabit operation.

일반적인 애플리케이션

EP2SGX90EF1508C4 적합 용도: 6 애플리케이션s: 10 Gbps OTU2/STM-64 Telecom Line Card, CPRI/OBSAI Base Station Fronthaul Aggregation, Serial RapidIO Backplane Switch, High-End ASIC Prototyping, Broadcast Video Processing Pipeline, Defense Signal Processing Platform.

🌐

10 Gbps OTU2/STM-64 Telecom Line Card

The EP2SGX90EF1508C4 is well-suited to OTU2 and STM-64 line-card designs because its 12 transceivers deliver 6.375 Gbps per lane, enabling 10 Gbps payload transport with multi-rate SONET/SDH framing implemented in fabric. With 90,960 LEs available, the device can absorb the framer, FEC encoder, and overhead processor alongside the PCS logic, removing the need for a companion ASIC. The 4,520,448 embedded memory bits provide line-rate buffering for GFP/LCAS adaptation without external SSRAM, simplifying the BOM.

📱

CPRI/OBSAI Base Station Fronthaul Aggregation

In 3G/4G base-station fronthaul equipment, the EP2SGX90EF1508C4 can aggregate up to six CPRI links at 6.144 Gbps or twelve at 3.072 Gbps because each transceiver is independently reconfigurable. The 8 PLLs and 4 DLLs provide the per-channel reference flexibility required to lock each remote radio head to a different clock domain without external jitter cleaners. Compared to discrete ASIC solutions, the FPGA-based aggregator supports evolving CPRI line-bit-rate options via firmware updates rather than silicon re-spins.

🏭

Serial RapidIO Backplane Switch

The 6.375 Gbps transceivers of the EP2SGX90EF1508C4 cleanly cover Serial RapidIO 1x and 4x link rates up to 3.125 Gbps, and the 90,960 LEs implement the SerDes-to-switch fabric mapping plus a RapidIO controller. The 1,508-ball FCBGA brings 650 user I/Os, which is sufficient to drive multiple board-level RapidIO ports in parallel. Pre-emphasis and adaptive equalization on each CMAU channel let the device reach across 40+ inches of FR-4 backplane with low BER.

🖥️

High-End ASIC Prototyping

Design teams use the EP2SGX90EF1508C4 as a 90 nm process-compatible prototyping vehicle for ASIC RTL because the 90,960 LEs provide register-rich logic capacity close to typical ASIC gate counts. The 12 transceivers allow real-world ASIC IO and memory interfaces to be exercised before silicon is available. Compared to software simulation, FPGA prototypes run orders-of-magnitude faster and reveal clock-domain-crossing bugs that simulation typically misses.

📺

Broadcast Video Processing Pipeline

For uncompressed 3G-SDI / HD-SDI processing and multi-channel broadcast encoders, the EP2SGX90EF1508C4's 12 transceivers handle four 3G-SDI links at 2.97 Gbps each, while the 90,960 LEs implement video scaling, color-space conversion, and overlay logic. The 4.5 Mbit of embedded RAM is sufficient for line buffers in scaling pipelines, reducing or eliminating external SSRAM. The C4 speed grade closes timing at typical 148.5 MHz video pixel clocks even with multi-tap FIR filtering in the datapath.

✈️

Defense Signal Processing Platform

In defense applications such as radar IF processing and electronic-warfare subsystems, the EP2SGX90EF1508C4 combines 12 multi-gigabit transceivers with enough logic to implement FFTs, digital down-converters, and pulse-compression filters in a single device. The embedded 18x18 multipliers and 4 Mbit of block RAM support parallel DSP operations at sample rates above 250 MHz. Although the device is rated commercial (0-85C), it can be derated and screened for defense applications where supply is still available on the secondary market.

What is the logic element count of EP2SGX90EF1508C4?
The EP2SGX90EF1508C4 contains 90,960 equivalent logic elements (LEs) organized into 45,480 adaptive logic modules (ALMs), structured as 4,548 LABs of 10 LEs each. According to the Altera Stratix II GX family datasheet, this places the device in the upper-mid density tier of the family, between the EP2SGX60 and the EP2SGX130 variants.
How many multi-gigabit transceivers does EP2SGX90EF1508C4 have?
The EP2SGX90EF1508C4 integrates up to 12 full-duplex multi-gigabit transceiver channels (CMAUs). Each channel supports serial data rates from 600 Mbps to 6.375 Gbps with dynamic reconfiguration and adaptive equalization, making the device suitable for 10 Gbps and SONET OC-192 applications when using fewer than 12 active channels.
What package does EP2SGX90EF1508C4 use?
The EP2SGX90EF1508C4 uses a 1508-ball flip-chip BGA (FCBGA) package measuring 40 mm x 40 mm with a 1.0 mm ball pitch and a maximum user I/O count of 650 pins. Per Altera packaging data, this is the largest package option in the Stratix II GX family and supports the full transceiver and I/O complement.
Is EP2SGX90EF1508C4 still in production?
The EP2SGX90EF1508C4 is categorized as obsolete, having been superseded by the Stratix IV GX family and subsequently by Stratix V and Stratix 10 devices. The part remains available from the secondary market and authorized brokers such as DigiKey and Win Source, but Altera (now Intel PSG) does not currently accept new orders for volume production.
Where can I buy EP2SGX90EF1508C4 today?
The EP2SGX90EF1508C4 is available from authorized distributors including DigiKey (Altera SKU 1207267) and Mouser Europe, and from broker inventory at Win Source and Ampheo. Pricing as of 2026-09-09 starts around USD 1,850 for single-unit quantities with volume discounts at 100+ units; lead time is typically 8-12 weeks from secondary-market suppliers.
What is the lead time for EP2SGX90EF1508C4 orders?
Lead time for the obsolete EP2SGX90EF1508C4 ranges from 4-8 weeks for limited inventory at authorized brokers to 12-16 weeks for sourced-from-network orders. Because the part is end-of-life, distributors typically do not accept return-to-stock and quote per-RFQ; confirm availability with your distributor before issuing a purchase order.
What is the price of EP2SGX90EF1508C4?
Single-unit pricing for EP2SGX90EF1508C4 is approximately USD 1,850 as of 2026-09-09. Volume tier pricing through secondary-market brokers starts at USD 1,395 at 500 pieces, USD 1,495 at 100 pieces, and USD 1,580 at 50 pieces, per Ampheo and Win Source quotes referenced in our price-tracking data.
What is the difference between EP2SGX90EF1508C4 and EP2SGX90FF1508C4N?
The EP2SGX90EF1508C4 uses the F1508 package with 'E' (enhanced with 12 transceivers up to 6.375 Gbps) speed-signaling variant and is rated commercial C4, whereas the EP2SGX90FF1508C4N uses the 'FF' suffix which historically denotes 8 transceivers at lower speed grade. Both share the same 1,508-ball FCBGA footprint but differ in transceiver count and I/O configuration - verify with the datasheet pin tables before swapping.
Can EP2SGX90EF1508C4 be replaced by a Stratix IV GX device?
Yes, the Altera Stratix IV GX EP4SGX290/EP4SGX360 series is the architectural successor to the Stratix II GX EP2SGX90 family and offers pin-compatible footprints in similar FCBGA packages. However, the migration requires Quartus II 9.0 or later and recompilation of all HDL sources - the bitstream is not interchangeable, so this is a board-level redesign rather than a drop-in replacement.
Is there a drop-in replacement for EP2SGX90EF1508C4 with the same package?
Direct drop-in replacements for the EP2SGX90EF1508C4 with identical bitstream compatibility do not exist because each Altera FPGA is uniquely keyed. Pin-compatible FPGA drop-ins require recompilation and are typically not feasible for production swaps - we recommend moving to EP2SGX90EF1508C4N (lead-free variant) or migrating the design to a Stratix IV GX footprint if a re-spin is possible.
Where can I download the EP2SGX90EF1508C4 datasheet PDF?
The official Altera Stratix II GX family datasheet (volume 1, SII51002) is available as a free PDF via FPGAkey.com and Altera's archived documentation portal. Search the model number 'EP2SGX90EF1508C4' on fpgakey.com or allDatasheet.in to retrieve the most current copy of the datasheet and pin-out PDF as of 2026-09-09.
What is the difference between EP2SGX90EF1508C4 and EP2SGX90EF1508C5?
The EP2SGX90EF1508C5 is a faster speed grade than the C4 device, with the C5 indicating a slower performance tier. For timing-critical 6.375 Gbps transceiver paths, designers usually prefer the C4 or faster grades; the C5 variant of the same device may not close timing at the maximum transceiver baud rate.
What is the typical use case for EP2SGX90EF1508C4?
The EP2SGX90EF1508C4 is typically deployed in 10 Gbps OTU2/STM-64 telecom line cards, OBSAI/CPRI fronthaul aggregation in base-station equipment, Serial RapidIO backplanes, high-end ASIC prototyping, and broadcast video-processing pipelines. Its combination of 90K LEs and 12 transceivers at 6.375 Gbps targets systems that previously required an ASIC plus a companion FPGA.
What are the key specifications of EP2SGX90EF1508C4 that engineers should know?
Engineers should know five key specifications of EP2SGX90EF1508C4: 90,960 logic elements, 4,520,448 embedded memory bits, up to 12 multi-gigabit transceivers operating from 600 Mbps to 6.375 Gbps, 8 enhanced PLLs with 4 DLLs, and a 1,508-ball FCBGA package on a 40 x 40 mm substrate. Combined, these define the device's signal-processing and high-speed serial I/O envelope.
Is EP2SGX90EF1508C4 RoHS compliant?
RoHS compliance for EP2SGX90EF1508C4 is [DATA_NEEDED: RoHS status] - the 'C4' speed grade does not encode lead-free status in Altera's naming convention. For RoHS-compliant sourcing of the same die and package, use EP2SGX90EF1508C4N (the 'N' suffix in Altera part numbers denotes lead-free / RoHS compliant) as the verified RoHS variant.

선택 가이드

Choose the EP2SGX90EF1508C4 when your design requires 10 Gbps serial I/O combined with mid-range logic density (90K LEs) and the 1,508-ball FCBGA footprint fits the board. For RoHS-compliant designs, switch to the EP2SGX90EF1508C4N (identical die, lead-free solder balls). If timing margins are tight, use the faster C3 grade (EP2SGX90EF1508C3N); if the design is timing-non-critical, the C5 grade (EP2SGX90EF1508C5) may offer lower-cost sourcing. For industrial temperature range, consider EP2SGX90EF1152I4 (smaller 1,152-ball package, I-grade temp) - this requires a board redesign but lowers BOM cost. All five variants share the same Altera Quartus II tool flow, but no two are bitstream-compatible - recompilation is always required.

설계 노트

The EP2SGX90EF1508C4 requires three power rails: 0.9V core, 1.2V transceiver analog, and 1.2-3.3V VCCIO for I/O banks. Altera recommends independent switching supplies with a soft-start ramp of 1-10 ms and a controlled power-good sequence where VCCIO rises before or simultaneously with the 0.9V core. Add bulk decoupling of 220 uF low-ESR polymer per rail and 0.1 uF / 1 nF high-frequency ceramics within 5 mm of each supply ball cluster.

The 1,508-ball FCBGA on a 1.0 mm pitch demands a multilayer PCB with microvia technology (4-2-4 stack minimum) and a controlled-impedance stack-up of 50 ohm single-ended / 100 ohm differential traces for transceiver channels. Maintain matched lengths within 0.5 mm for TX/RX pairs and 0.15 mm across the four lanes of each transceiver quad. Use ground flooding under BGA breakouts to provide return-path stitching.

Estimated: at 100% logic utilization with 12 transceivers at 6.375 Gbps, the device dissipates approximately 12-15 W. The 40 x 40 mm FCBGA has a theta_JA of approximately 8-10 C/W with a standard 1 oz 8-layer PCB. Mount a heatsink with thermal interface material and ensure 200 LFM airflow for reliable operation at maximum junction temperature. The device supports on-die temperature-sensing diodes that can be read via JTAG for thermal monitoring.

Avoid these common pitfalls when designing with the EP2SGX90EF1508C4: (1) the device does NOT support bitstream-level migration from Stratix I - designs must be recompiled; (2) leave TX pre-emphasis at default until link BER is measured - over-emphasis causes jitter; (3) configure unused transceiver channels as tristate, not powered-on default, to save 0.3-0.5W per channel; (4) ensure Quartus II version 7.2 or later is used - earlier versions do not recognize the EP2SGX90E die revision.
