EP4SGX230HF35C2N Stratix IV GX High-End FPGA IC 564 17544192 228000
EP4SGX230HF35C2N is a high-performance SRAM-based Stratix IV GX FPGA originally designed by Altera, now under Intel product portfolio, fabricated on advanced 40nm process and enclosed within a 35×35mm 1152-ball FC-FBGA surface-mount tray package with MSL3 moisture rating and full RoHS compliance for industrial automated SMT assembly. This commercial-grade chip runs at junction temperature from 0°C to +85°C, equipped with 228,000 adaptive logic modules, 17.54Mbit embedded block RAM, abundant high-speed transceiver banks, and 564 user general I/Os alongside multi-voltage I/O bank support covering 1.2V to 3.3V logic standards. Though marked obsolete by official production lines, it remains widely stocked for legacy high-speed communication, signal processing and high-density reconfigurable system upgrades that demand robust multi-gigabit serial link capability and massive parallel logic resources.
It serves as a core high-speed reconfigurable processor deployed in wireless base station radio cards, optical transport network switching boards, radar signal processing platforms, high-speed video broadcast equipment, large-scale test measurement instrumentation and high-performance computing acceleration cards, catering to mission-critical systems requiring simultaneous multi-channel gigabit serial communication and heavy parallel digital computation workloads that mid-range FPGAs cannot fulfill.
