EP1K10TC144-1N

The EP1K10TC144-1N is an ACEX-1K family programmable logic device providing a compact FPGA solution with embedded memory and general logic fabric. It combines on-chip embedded arrays and logic elements to implement memory-rich megafunctions and general-purpose logic in a single surface-mount 144-LQFP package.

Designed for cost-efficient system-on-a-programmable-chip (SOPC) integration and high-volume applications, the device targets designs that need a balance of logic capacity, embedded RAM, and flexible I/O while operating within commercial temperature and voltage ranges.

Key Features

• Core logic capacity — 576 logic elements and approximately 56,000 equivalent gates provide the programmable logic bed for control, glue-logic, and custom processing functions.
• Embedded memory — Total on-chip RAM of 12,288 bits implemented via embedded array blocks (EABs) suitable for efficient memory and dual-port megafunctions.
• I/O flexibility — Up to 92 user I/O pins with MultiVolt capability on the ACEX-1K family (I/O can drive/receive 2.5-V, 3.3-V, or 5.0-V devices as a family feature noted in the datasheet).
• Package and mounting — 144-LQFP surface-mount package (supplier device package: 144-TQFP, 20 × 20) for compact board-level integration.
• Power and supply — Operates with a specified voltage supply range of 2.375 V to 2.625 V and an internal 2.5-V supply as documented for the ACEX-1K family.
• Commercial operating range — Rated for 0 °C to 70 °C operation (commercial grade).
• System-level features — Family-level features include in-circuit reconfigurability (ICR) via external configuration devices or JTAG, built-in JTAG boundary-scan test (IEEE 1149.1), and programmable I/O options such as open-drain and slew-rate control.
• Interconnect and arithmetic support — Dedicated carry and cascade chains and a continuous routing structure (FastTrack) for predictable interconnect delays and efficient arithmetic implementation.
• Clocking — Low-skew clock distribution trees with support for multiple global clocks and clock-management options noted in the ACEX-1K family.

Typical Applications

• High-performance communications equipment — Implement packet processing, protocol bridging, and custom logic where embedded memory and moderate logic density are required.
• SOPC and megafunction integration — Combine embedded RAM blocks and logic elements to implement memory controllers, FIFOs, and other megafunctions in a single device.
• Embedded control and glue logic — Replace multiple discrete components with a programmable solution for control, timing, and interface adaptation.
• PCI-capable systems (family-level note) — The ACEX-1K family supports PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 2.2 for 3.3-V operation; family documentation also notes -1 speed-grade devices for 5.0-V operation.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced logic and memory in one device: 576 logic elements combined with 12,288 bits of embedded RAM let you implement both control logic and local buffering without external memory for many use cases.
• Flexible I/O voltage support: Family MultiVolt I/O capability allows interfacing with 2.5-V, 3.3-V, or 5.0-V peripherals, simplifying mixed-voltage board designs.
• In-circuit reconfigurability and testability: ICR via external configuration devices and built-in JTAG boundary-scan support enable field updates and board-level test access without consuming device logic.
• Design predictability: FastTrack interconnect, dedicated carry/cascade chains, and low-skew clock distribution reduce timing uncertainty for arithmetic and high-fan-in functions.
• Compact, surface-mount package: The 144-LQFP (20 × 20) package provides a space-efficient footprint for density- and cost-sensitive PCB layouts.
• Toolchain and ecosystem support: The ACEX-1K family is supported by development systems and interfaces to common EDA tools for design entry, synthesis, and place-and-route.
