81,264 logic elements in a 1.0 V low-power fabric
The Intel 10CL080ZF484I8G is a Cyclone 10 LP FPGA packing 81,264 logic elements (5079 LABs/CLBs) and 2,810,880 total RAM bits, all running on a 1.0 V core supply. This density tier sits in the middle of the Cyclone 10 LP family — enough logic for a modest soft-core processor, a video scaler, or a multi-channel sensor fusion pipeline without stepping up to a larger BGA. The 289 user I/O are brought out to a 484-ball FBGA (23x23 mm body). That ball count means the I/O ring is dense enough to route a 16-bit DDR memory bus plus a parallel camera interface and still have pins left for general-purpose control. The 1.0 V core voltage keeps dynamic power lower than the 1.2 V variants in the same family — a real advantage when the board is thermally constrained or the PSU budget is tight.
The 484-FBGA package has a 23x23 mm footprint with a 1.0 mm ball pitch, which is a standard four-layer board layout; the 1.0 V core rail needs a dedicated regulator, but the low current draw (typically under 200 mA at full utilization) keeps the thermal design simple.

Peer comparison: supply voltage variants
The closest sibling is the 10CL080ZU484I8G, which shares the same 484-FBGA package, 289 I/O, 81,264 logic elements, and 2.8 Mbit RAM — the only difference is the core supply voltage: 1.0 V on the ZF variant versus 1.0 V on the ZU variant (both are 1.0 V, but the ZU suffix indicates a different ordering code for the same electrical spec). The 10CL080YU484I7G runs on 1.2 V core and has a -40 to 100 °C temperature grade but a different speed grade (I7 vs I8). For a BOM that already has a 1.0 V rail, the ZF or ZU variant is the drop-in fit; the 1.2 V YU variant requires a rail change.
