EP20K200CF484C9 - APEX 20KC FPGA, 200K Gates, 484-FBGA | Altera
MPN: EP20K200CF484C9 ✗ Cuối đờiEP20K200CF484C9 Tóm tắt
An FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) is a programmable logic device that sits in the broader semiconductor hierarchy as: programmable logic -> logic IC -> integrated circuit. The APEX 20KC architecture combines LUT-based logic elements, embedded system blocks (ESBs) for memory and CAM, and FastTrack interconnect, enabling high-density datapath and bus-interface designs at modest static power. Compared with earlier APEX 20K devices, the 'C' (2.5 V) I/O ring and 0.18 µm process provide finer geometry and faster I/O transitions for PCI, LVDS, and GTL+ interfaces.
Key features of the EP20K200CF484C9 include 8,320 logic elements, 106,496 RAM bits, 376 user I/O, and 1.8 V core operation. The 484-FBGA (23 x 23 mm) package supports high pin counts required by parallel bus, memory-interface, and multi-channel telecom designs, while the commercial speed-grade -9 indicates the fastest available -9 timing bin.
Typical applications include PCI / cPCI bus controllers, telecommunications line cards, video/image processing pipelines, and DSP co-processing front-ends. The combination of embedded RAM and high I/O count makes the part well suited to designs that require on-chip buffering alongside wide external buses.
When designing with the EP20K200CF484C9, follow Altera's APEX 20KC pin connection and decoupling guidelines: provide bulk 1.8 V and 2.5 V planes, place decoupling capacitors close to every VCCINT/VCCIO ball pair, and use the Altera Quartus II (or legacy MAX+PLUS II) tool flow for synthesis, place-and-route, and bitstream generation.

Ứng dụng tiêu biểu
EP20K200CF484C9 phù hợp cho 7 Áp dụngs: PCI / CompactPCI Bus Controller, Telecommunications Line Card / Backplane Interface, Video Capture / Image Processing Pipeline, DSP Co-Processor Front-End, Industrial Control / Machine Automation, Legacy Avionics / Test Equipment I/O, Medical Imaging Pre-Processor.
PCI / CompactPCI Bus Controller
The EP20K200CF484C9 is well suited to PCI 2.2 / cPCI bus controller designs. Its 376 user I/O expose enough pins to drive 32-bit PCI address/data plus 4-bit command/byte-enable plus arbiter/clock signals, and the 8,320 logic elements handle state-machine and parity logic. The 106,496 bits of embedded RAM implement transaction FIFOs without external SRAM. Per the APEX 20KC datasheet, the 2.5 V VCCIO supports PCI signalling directly. Replace with Cyclone IV for new PCI designs.

Telecommunications Line Card / Backplane Interface
Telecom line cards require high pin count for multi-protocol I/O (TDM, Utopia, LVDS) and embedded buffering for packet queues. The EP20K200CF484C9's 376 user I/O expose 4-6 LVDS channels plus parallel TDM buses, while 106,496 RAM bits hold cell/packet headers and small FIFOs. The 1.8 V core and 2.5 V VCCIO are compatible with legacy 2.5 V PHY chips. Speed grade -9 closes timing on 80 MHz system buses; choose -8 if margins allow. Plan migration to Cyclone V GT for new designs.
Được đề xuất
Video Capture / Image Processing Pipeline
The EP20K200CF484C9 fits mid-density image processing such as HD-SDI capture, deinterlacing, and color-space conversion. Embedded RAM (106,496 bits) implements line buffers and 3x3 convolution kernels without external SRAM. The 376 I/O accommodate 16-bit parallel video plus sync/clock and a host-side data port. For 1080p60 throughput, instantiate pixel pipelines across multiple logic-element rows; the -9 speed grade is recommended. Migrate to Cyclone V for 4K pipelines.
Được đề xuất
DSP Co-Processor Front-End
The EP20K200CF484C9 is used as a pre-/post-processing front-end for external DSPs. The 8,320 logic elements implement FIR filters, FFT butterflies, and CRC engines, while embedded RAM stores coefficient tables. The 376 I/O deliver wide datapath connections to host DSPs (TI TMS320 series, Analog Devices SHARC) and to DDR memory. The -9 speed grade supports 100+ MHz sample rates on parallel datapaths. For floating-point DSP, migrate to a Stratix-class device.
Được đề xuất
Industrial Control / Machine Automation
Industrial machine controllers use the EP20K200CF484C9 for multi-axis motion control, encoder decoding, and fieldbus bridging (Profibus, DeviceNet, CANopen). The 376 I/O drive stepper/digital I/O banks; embedded RAM buffers encoder counters and command queues. Commercial temperature (0 C to +85 C) is suitable for cabinet-mounted equipment. For factory-floor (-40 C to +85 C) deployment, choose the industrial-grade variant or migrate to Cyclone IV E with industrial qualification.
Được đề xuất
Legacy Avionics / Test Equipment I/O
The EP20K200CF484C9 is used in legacy avionics test rigs and bench-top test equipment where protocol conformance (ARINC 429, MIL-STD-1553 bridging) and wide parallel stimulus/response buses are required. The 8,320 logic elements implement protocol encoders/decoders, and embedded RAM holds pattern sequences. The 484-FBGA package supports dense pin-out for backplane connectors. Industrial/extended temperature variants should be specified for airborne environments.
Được đề xuất
Medical Imaging Pre-Processor
Mid-tier medical imaging subsystems (ultrasound front-end boards, endoscopy capture) use the EP20K200CF484C9 for beamforming preprocessing and color-Doppler pipelines. The 8,320 logic elements implement the per-channel FIR and Hilbert transforms, while 106,496 RAM bits hold channel coefficients and lookup tables. The 376 I/O connect to multi-channel ADC arrays and the host processor. For new designs requiring IEC 60601 compliance and active longevity, migrate to Cyclone V or MAX 10.

Ghi chú thiết kế
Provide separate 1.8 V (VCCINT) and 2.5 V (VCCIO) power planes with bulk decoupling of at least 100 uF per rail near the device. Place 0.1 uF and 0.01 uF ceramic capacitors within 0.25 inch of every VCCINT/VCCIO ball pair; the APEX 20KC datasheet specifies a minimum of eight bulk capacitors distributed around the BGA. Inrush during configuration can exceed 2 A; size the 1.8 V regulator for at least 3 A to avoid cold-start sag.
Route all four JTAG signals (TCK, TMS, TDI, TDO) with matched length to within 0.5 inch and isolated from switching signals by a ground guard. The 484-FBGA uses 1.0 mm ball pitch - assign a 4-layer or 6-layer stack-up with dedicated ground planes beneath the device to control impedance and provide thermal dissipation. Microvia-in-pad is recommended for inner-row balls.
Estimated: at 200 MHz system clock with 70% utilization, the EP20K200CF484C9 dissipates approximately 2-3 W in typical commercial conditions. With junction-to-ambient theta_JA around 12 C/W (still air, JEDEC 4-layer test board), this yields a 24-36 C temperature rise. Mount a thermal pad or copper spreader if the enclosure restricts airflow or ambient exceeds 60 C.
Do not confuse APEX 20KC (2.5 V VCCIO, this part) with APEX 20K (3.3 V VCCIO) or APEX 20KE. Mixing bitstreams across families bricks the device until reconfigured. Also note that Quartus Prime (14.0+) does NOT support APEX 20KC - use Quartus II 13.0 or MAX+PLUS II for synthesis, fitting, and bitstream generation. Programming files generated by Quartus Prime will fail with chain integrity errors.
