Description

The Electronic Component Model EP2S30F484C3N belongs to the category of FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Array) and is manufactured by Altera. It is a member of the Stratix® II FPGA family, which features a new logic structure that maximizes performance and enables device densities approaching 180,000 equivalent logic elements (LEs). The Stratix II family of devices offers up to 9 Mbits of on-chip, TriMatrix™ memory for demanding, memory-intensive applications and has up to 96 DSP blocks with up to 384 (18-bit × 18-bit) multipliers for efficient implementation of high-performance filters and other DSP functions.

EP2S30F484C3N is based on a 1.2-V, 90-nm, all-layer copper SRAM process, offering adaptive logic module (ALM) which is the basic building block of the Stratix II architecture. It also offers high-speed DSP blocks, global clock, and clock control blocks, PLLs with spread spectrum, support for numerous single-ended and differential I/O standards, and high-speed networking and communication bus standards including Parallel RapidIO, SPI-4 Phase 2 (POS-PHY Level 4), HyperTransport™ technology, and SFI-4. It supports high-speed external memory, including DDR and DDR2 SDRAM, RLDRAM II, QDR II SRAM, and SDR SDRAM, multiple intellectual property megafunctions from Altera MegaCore® functions and Altera Megafunction Partners Program (AMPPSM) megafunctions. Its design security is ensured by using configuration bitstream encryption and support for remote configuration updates.
