40,000 logic elements, 500 I/O — what this FPGA delivers
The 500 I/O count differentiates this part from the 10M40DAF484C8G sibling. The commercial temperature grade (0°C to 85°C) suits indoor equipment; the -I grade (10M40DAF672I6G) covers -40°C to 100°C.
672-FBGA — board integration notes
The 672-ball FBGA (27x27 mm) is a fine-pitch BGA. It requires a multi-layer PCB with controlled impedance for the I/O banks. The 500 I/O are distributed across multiple banks with dedicated VCCIO pins. MAX 10 devices support internal configuration flash, eliminating the need for an external configuration memory in many designs. Programming is done via JTAG or through the internal flash controller; the device can also act as a configuration device for other FPGAs in a multi-FPGA system.
