Overview

The Intel (Altera) 10M16DAF484C8G is a higher-capacity MAX 10 FPGA, offering 16000 logic elements and 562176 total RAM bits. It is housed in a 484-FBGA package, making it suitable for board layouts compatible with other devices in the MAX 10 family. This device operates from a 1.15V to 1.25V supply voltage and integrates various features like an on-die voltage regulator, PLLs, and ADCs.

Why Choose This Part

Engineers benefit from the integration of an on-die voltage regulator, simplifying power supply design. The inclusion of 12-bit ADCs and PLLs provides a mixed-signal capability often requiring external components in other FPGAs. The 484-FBGA package ensures a high I/O count (320) within a compact footprint, and the low standby/sleep currents are beneficial for power-sensitive applications.

Applications

General-Purpose Logic Replacement
Utilizing its 16000 logic elements, this FPGA can consolidate numerous discrete logic ICs, reducing board space and simplifying designs.
Custom Digital Signal Processing
With 562176 bits of total RAM and configurable logic, the device is capable of implementing custom DSP functions, filtering, and data manipulation tasks.
Embedded System Co-Processor
As a flexible co-processor, it can offload intensive tasks from a main microcontroller or CPU, handling high-speed I/O or parallel processing needs.
Analog Interface and Data Acquisition
The integrated 12-bit, 16-channel ADC enables direct interfacing with analog sensors and signals for data acquisition applications.
Protocol Bridging and Interface Translation
Its configurable I/O (320 pins) and internal logic allow for efficient translation and bridging between different communication protocols or interfaces.
Power-Managed Applications
The presence of an on-die voltage regulator and low power modes like sleep and standby (100uA each) makes it suitable for power-conscious designs.
