EPF8820ARC208-2N Ringkasan

The Altera EPF8820ARC208-2N is a member of the FLEX 8000 family of CMOS SRAM-based Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), delivering 8,000 usable gates organized as 672 logic elements (LEs) in a 208-pin RQFP (BFQFP with exposed pad) package. It is fabricated on a 0.42 µm process and operates from a 5 V supply with selectable 3.3 V or 5.0 V VCCIO for output bank compatibility, supporting up to 152 user I/O pins (148 outputs plus 4 dedicated inputs) at toggle frequencies up to 125 MHz.

An FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) is a programmable logic device that combines a matrix of configurable logic blocks (LEs) with programmable interconnect and I/O cells. Within the broader hierarchy, this places it as: programmable logic -> programmable logic device -> integrated circuit -> semiconductor. FLEX 8000 sits between simple PLDs/CPLDs (gate-count-limited) and modern high-density FPGAs, providing register-rich, in-system reconfigurable logic at a low cost per gate.

Key features of the EPF8820ARC208-2N include in-circuit reconfigurability (ICR) via external EPC1, EPC1213, EPC1064, or EPC1441 Altera configuration devices or a system controller, JTAG boundary-scan test support, and tri-state output buffers with programmable slew-rate control. The 208-pin RQFP package provides an exposed thermal pad that reduces junction-to-ambient thermal resistance for higher-power designs.

The FLEX 8000 architecture uses look-up table (LUT)-based logic elements, fast carry chains for arithmetic, a cascade chain for wide fan-in functions, and a hierarchical interconnect with FastTrack routing. The SRAM configuration memory allows unlimited reconfiguration but requires external non-volatile storage, which Altera provides through its dedicated EPC series configuration EPROMs.

Typical applications include telecommunications glue logic, industrial control interfacing, PCI bus bridges, DSP co-processing front-ends, and legacy system prototyping where a 5 V-tolerant, register-rich PLD replaces multiple discrete 74LS/74F TTL packages. Its in-system reconfigurability also suits remote field-upgradeable designs.

When designing with this device, allocate sufficient configuration time during power-up and verify VCCIO levels match downstream logic; mixing 5 V TTL and 3.3 V logic in different I/O banks is supported only with proper bank-by-bank VCCIO selection. The exposed pad of the 208-RQFP must be soldered to a sufficient copper pour for thermal dissipation.
