EP2C20Q240C8

Product Summary

The EP2C20Q240C8 Altera Cyclone II FPGA extends the low-cost FPGA density range to 68,416 logic elements (LEs) and provide up to 622 usable I/O pins and up to 1.1 Mbits of embedded memory. It is manufactured on 300-mm wafers using TSMCs 90-nm low-k dielectric process to ensure rapid availability and low cost. By minimizing silicon area, the EP2C20Q240C8 can support complex digital systems on a single chip at a cost that rivals that of ASICs. The low cost and optimized feature set of the Cyclone II FPGA make them ideal solutions for a wide array of automotive, consumer, communications, video processing, test and measurement, and other end-market solutions. The EP2C20Q240C8 contains a two-dimensional row- and column-based architecture to implement custom logic. It ranges in density from 4,608 to 68,416 LEs.
