EP1C3T144C6N

The EP1C3T144C6N is a Cyclone® family FPGA in a 144-pin LQFP package, offering 2,910 logic elements and approximately 0.06 Mbits (59,904 bits) of on-chip RAM. Built for commercial-grade embedded designs, this device targets data-path and general-purpose FPGA applications that require moderate logic density, on-chip memory, and flexible I/O.

As a member of the Cyclone family, the device leverages the family architecture and configuration features to deliver configurable logic, embedded memory, and clocking resources suitable for prototyping, product development, and space-constrained board designs.

Key Features

• Core Capacity — 2,910 logic elements provide the programmable fabric for implementing control, interface, and data-path logic.
• Embedded Memory — 59,904 bits of on-chip RAM (approximately 0.06 Mbits) for data buffering, FIFOs, and small local storage.
• I/O Count and Standards — 104 user I/O pins; Cyclone family-level support includes common I/O standards and high-speed LVDS options as documented in the Cyclone device handbook.
• Clocking Resources — Device-level clocking resources include PLL support as specified for the Cyclone family (EP1C3 device configuration).
• Supply Voltage — Core supply range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V, enabling integration with compatible power rails.
• Package & Mounting — Surface-mount 144-pin LQFP package; supplier references a 144-TQFP (20×20) package variant for footprint and procurement considerations.
• Operating Range — Commercial grade operation from 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Systems — Implement control logic, protocol bridging, and custom peripheral interfaces using the device’s logic elements and on-chip RAM.
• Data-Path Processing — Use for data buffering and mid-range logic processing where moderate logic capacity and embedded memory are required.
• Prototyping & Development — Platform for hardware validation and algorithm development that benefits from reprogrammable logic and accessible I/O.
• Consumer & Commercial Electronics — Integrate device-level control, UI handling, and interface adaptation in space-constrained package footprints.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory — 2,910 logic elements paired with 59,904 bits of RAM provide a balanced platform for mixed control and data tasks.
• Compact Surface-Mount Packaging — 144-pin LQFP/TQFP footprint supports compact board designs while exposing up to 104 user I/O pins.
• Commercial Temperature Range — Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C, suitable for standard commercial applications and products.
• Controlled Core Voltage — Defined core supply window (1.425 V to 1.575 V) simplifies power rail planning and design validation.
• RoHS Compliant — Environmentally compliant for global commercial market requirements.
