EP1C6T144C7N

The EP1C6T144C7N is a Cyclone® series SRAM-based FPGA from Intel, optimized for cost-sensitive data-path and system integration tasks. Built on the Cyclone family architecture, it delivers a balance of programmable logic, embedded memory, and system-level I/O to support mid-density FPGA designs.

This device is suited for commercial applications that require approximately 5,980 logic elements, on-chip memory, and flexible I/O in a compact 144-pin LQFP/TQFP package while operating within a 1.425 V to 1.575 V core supply window and a 0 °C to 85 °C temperature range.

Key Features

• Logic Density  Approximately 5,980 logic elements for implementing mid-density logic and glue-logic functions.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 0.09 Mbits of on-chip RAM (92,160 total RAM bits) for FIFOs, small buffers, and localized data storage.
• I/O Count  98 user I/O pins suitable for interfacing with peripherals, sensors, and supporting external memory/addressing signals.
• Clocking  Cyclone family clocking features, including support for up to two PLLs per device as described for EP1C6-class devices, for clock multiplication and phase alignment.
• Voltage and Power  Core supply operating range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V to match system-level power rails and design constraints.
• Package & Mounting  144-pin LQFP package (supplier device package listed as 144-TQFP, 20 × 20) in a surface-mount form factor for easy PCB assembly and compact board layout.
• Commercial Temperature Grade  Specified for 0 °C to 85 °C operation, suitable for commercial-grade embedded systems.
• RoHS Compliant  Meets RoHS environmental requirements for lead-free manufacturing and assembly.

Typical Applications

• Data-path and protocol bridging  Use the logic density and embedded RAM to implement custom data pathways, packet handling, and protocol conversion in mid-range systems.
• Memory interface support  Suitable for designs that require controller logic or buffering when interfacing with external memories and peripherals.
• Signal conditioning and I/O aggregation  Consolidate multiple sensor or peripheral interfaces into a single programmable device using available I/O and embedded resources.
• Embedded control and glue logic  Implement state machines, timing control, and board-level coordination functions in compact commercial electronics.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced mid-range capacity: Approximately 5,980 logic elements and on-chip RAM provide a practical mix of logic and memory for mid-density FPGA designs without excess overhead.
• Family-based architecture: Benefits from Cyclone family features such as PLL-based clocking and support for common I/O standards, enabling consistent design practices across related devices.
• Compact, surface-mount package: The 144-pin LQFP/TQFP package supports compact PCB layouts and standard surface-mount assembly processes.
• Commercial-grade thermal range: Specified operation from 0 °C to 85 °C aligns with common commercial electronics use cases.
• Regulatory readiness: RoHS compliance simplifies integration into modern, lead-free product assemblies.
• Clear power envelope: Defined core voltage range (1.425 V–1.575 V) helps streamline power-supply design and verification.
