EP1SGX40DF1020C6BN FPGAs Overview

Stratix EP1SGX40DF1020C6BN devices combine highly advanced 3.1875-gigabit-per-second (Gbps) four-channel gigabit transceiver blocks with one of the industry’s most advanced FPGA architectures. Stratix GX devices are manufactured on a 1.5-V, 0.13-µm, all-layer copper CMOS process technology with 1.5- V PCML I/O standard support.

Historically, designers have used high-speed transceivers in strictly structured, line-side applications. Now, with the new gigabit transceiver blocks embedded in FPGAs, you can use transceivers in a host of new systems that require flexibility, increased time-to-market, high performance, and top-of-the-line features.

Stratix GX EP1SGX40DF1020C6BN devices are organized into four-channel blocks with four 3.1875 Gbps full-duplex channels per block and up to 20 channels (in five blocks) per device.

Features

Each self-contained Stratix GX gigabit transceiver block supports a variety of embedded functions and does the following:
■ Supports frequencies from 500 megabits per second (Mbps) to 3.1875 Gbps
■ Integrates serializer/deserializer (SERDES), clock data recovery (CDR), word aligner, channel aligner, rate matcher, 8B/10B encoder/decoder, byte serializer/deserializer, and phase compensation first-in first-out (FIFO) modules
■ Supports flexible reference clock generation capabilities, including a dedicated transmitter phase-locked loop (PLL) and four receiver PLLs per gigabit transceiver block
■ Supports programmable pre-emphasis, equalization, and programmable VOD settings in I/O buffers, and dynamic reprogrammability for each of these features
■ Implements XAUI physical media attachment (PMA) and physical coding sublayer (PCS) functionality for 10GBASE-X systems
■ Provides built-in Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) physical coding sublayer functionality
■ Provides individual transmitter and receiver power-down capability for reduced power consumption during non-operation
■ Includes built-in self test (BIST) capability, including embedded Pseudo Random Binary Sequence (PRBS) pattern generation and verification
■ Includes three independent loopback paths for system verification
