Overview

The 10M08SCU169C8G is an Intel MAX 10 FPGA featuring 8,000 logic elements and integrated dual-configuration flash memory in a compact 169-pin UFBGA package. It is designed to provide system control, interface bridging, and power management functions on a single chip, eliminating the need for external configuration memory.

Why Choose This Part

The primary advantage is the integrated 1540 KB of user flash memory, which enables instant-on capability and simplifies PCB design by removing external PROM requirements. The 12-bit ADC provides precise analog monitoring directly within the FPGA fabric, while the 0 to 85C operating range supports standard industrial environments.

Applications

System Control and Monitoring
Managing power-up sequencing and board-level telemetry using the integrated 12-bit ADC with 8 input channels.
Interface Bridging
Translating between different I/O standards and protocols in edge computing hardware where space is constrained.
I/O Expansion
Adding additional high-speed GPIO and specialized logic to microcontrollers or SoCs via JTAG or other serial interfaces.
