Active2,159 in stock

Overview

The 10M02DCV36C8G is a compact, low-power Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) from the Altera MAX 10 family, featuring 2000 logic elements and 110,592 bits of total RAM. It is designed for cost-sensitive applications that require the flexibility of programmable logic in an extremely small 3.47mm x 3.4mm WLCSP package. This device integrates dual-configuration flash memory, allowing for instant-on capability and fail-safe remote system updates.

Why Choose This Part

The 10M02DCV36C8G provides a single-chip solution by integrating flash memory, reducing PCB footprint and simplifying power supply requirements with its low 8.5mA run current at 48MHz. Its instant-on capability ensures the FPGA is active before the rest of the system, which is critical for control plane and power-up sequencing duties.

Applications

System Management
Handling power sequencing, reset generation, and I/O expansion in space-constrained embedded systems.
Interface Bridging
Converting between different I/O standards or protocols where a dedicated ASIC is not available.
Motor Control Logic
Implementing custom PWM logic and sensor feedback processing for small-scale industrial automation.
Signal Pre-processing
Offloading repetitive logic tasks from a primary microcontroller to reduce CPU overhead and power consumption.

Getting Started

Development is primarily done using the Intel Quartus Prime Lite Edition software, which supports the MAX 10 family for synthesis and board-level timing analysis. For hardware evaluation, the EK-10M08E144 is a common starting point, though designers using this specific WLCSP variant should focus on high-density PCB design rules for the 0.5mm pitch 36-VBGA package.

Also Consider

iCE40 UltraLite Lattice Semiconductor - Offers a similarly small 36-ball footprint with even lower power consumption for mobile and wearable applications.
10M02SCE144C8G Intel/Altera - The same 2K LE logic capacity but in a much easier-to-prototype 144-EQFP package for less space-constrained designs.
