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.

Getting Started

Development is performed using the Intel Quartus Prime software suite, which supports HDL synthesis and simulation. Engineers typically use the Intel USB-Blaster II for JTAG programming and can evaluate the silicon using the MAX 10 FPGA Evaluation Kit.
