EP2C20F256I8N

The EP2C20F256I8N is a member of the Cyclone II FPGA family by Intel (formerly Altera). It features 20,060 logic elements (LEs), 239,616 RAM bits, and 18 embedded multipliers, making it suitable for mid-range digital designs. The device operates at 1.15V–1.25V core voltage and supports I/O standards like LVTTL, LVCMOS, and PCI.
Housed in a 256-pin FineLine BGA (FBGA) package, it offers 158 user I/O pins and includes PLLs (Phase-Locked Loops) for clock management. With a maximum operating frequency of up to 250 MHz, it balances performance and power efficiency.
Common applications include embedded systems, industrial control, and communications. Its low-cost, low-power design makes it ideal for cost-sensitive projects.
For development, Intel’s Quartus II software is typically used. The Cyclone II series is now considered legacy but remains in use for older or simpler designs.
