EP1K10TC144-1

The EP1K10TC144-1 is an ACEX-1K family field programmable gate array (FPGA) optimized for system-on-a-programmable-chip (SOPC) integration. It combines a logic array with embedded memory blocks to implement logic, dual-port memory functions and specialized megafunctions in a single surface-mount device.

With 576 logic elements, approximately 12,288 bits of on-chip RAM, 92 user I/O pins and a 144-LQFP package, this commercial-grade device targets cost-conscious, high-volume applications such as communications and general-purpose programmable logic tasks where compact integration and predictable I/O and clock behavior are required.

Key Features

• Programmable Logic Core 576 logic elements (LEs) and an architecture designed for combining general logic with embedded array functions for megafunction implementation.
• On-chip Memory Approximately 12,288 bits of embedded RAM with EAB (embedded array block) support and dual-port capability for memory-intensive functions.
• I/O and Voltage 92 user I/O pins, with device support for an internal 2.5 V supply and specified operating voltage range of 2.375 V to 2.625 V.
• Gate Capacity Device gate count listed as 56,000, enabling integration of sizeable logic and system functions on a single package.
• Package and Mounting 144-LQFP (144-TQFP 20×20) surface-mount package suitable for compact PCB layouts.
• Commercial Temperature Range Rated for 0 °C to 70 °C operation for commercial applications.
• System Features from ACEX-1K Family Architecture includes FastTrack continuous routing, dedicated carry and cascade chains, low-skew clock distribution, ClockLock and ClockBoost options, and JTAG boundary-scan (IEEE 1149.1) for in-circuit testing and configuration support.

Typical Applications

• Communications Equipment Implement protocol handling, packet processing or glue-logic with on-chip RAM and dedicated routing for predictable timing.
• SOPC Integration Consolidate multiple system functions into a single FPGA to reduce component count and simplify board-level design.
• Memory and Buffering Functions Use dual-port embedded arrays for FIFOs, small packet buffers or scratch RAM in embedded designs.
• Peripheral and Interface Logic Implement custom interface logic and I/O control using the device’s programmable I/O and dedicated arithmetic/cascade chains.

Unique Advantages

• Integrated Embedded Memory: Approximately 12,288 bits of on-chip RAM enables local storage and dual-port memory use without external components.
• Compact, Surface-Mount Package: 144-LQFP package provides a compact footprint for space-constrained PCBs while exposing 92 user I/Os.
• Built-in Test and Configuration: JTAG boundary-scan (IEEE 1149.1) supports in-circuit testing and reconfiguration without consuming user logic.
• Dedicated Arithmetic and Logic Paths: Carry and cascade chains accelerate adders, counters and high-fan-in logic, helping improve performance for arithmetic-heavy logic.
• Predictable Interconnect and Clocking: FastTrack routing, low-skew clock trees, and ClockLock/ClockBoost options support tighter timing control in synchronous designs.
• Family-Level Migration: ACEX-1K family compatibility enables scaling within the family while maintaining a consistent design flow and package options.
