EP1K10TC144-2N

The EP1K10TC144-2N is an ACEX-1K family field programmable gate array (FPGA) from Intel. It provides a mid-density, programmable logic solution combining a logic array with embedded array blocks for memory and specialized megafunctions.

Designed for cost-sensitive system-on-a-programmable-chip (SOPC) and communications-oriented applications, this commercial-grade device balances on-chip RAM, logic resources, and I/O count in a compact 144-pin LQFP surface-mount package.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 576 logic elements providing a programmable logic fabric suitable for moderate-density designs.
• Embedded Memory — 12,288 total RAM bits of on-chip memory for implementing dual-port data buffers, small FIFOs, and lookup tables.
• I/O Resources — 92 user I/O pins to support a wide range of peripheral interfaces and board-level connections.
• Gate Equivalent — Approximately 56,000 system gates, enabling integration of multiple logic functions on a single device.
• Power and Supply — Operates with a device supply range of 2.375 V to 2.625 V and an internal 2.5-V supply architecture as specified for the ACEX‑1K family.
• Package & Mounting — Supplied in a 144-LQFP package (supplier device package referenced as 144-TQFP, 20×20); surface-mount mounting type for PCB assembly.
• Operating Range — Commercial temperature range rated from 0 °C to 70 °C.
• Family-Level System Features — ACEX‑1K family capabilities include enhanced embedded arrays (EABs) for megafunctions, dual-port EAB operation, JTAG boundary-scan, and flexible interconnect features as documented in the ACEX‑1K datasheet.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Communications Modules — Implement packet buffering, protocol glue logic, and interface bridging using on-chip RAM and logic resources.
• Embedded Control and SOPC — Integrate control logic, state machines, and small embedded memory blocks for compact system designs.
• Consumer and OEM Electronics — Provide programmable logic and I/O flexibility for feature-rich consumer devices and OEM products within a commercial temperature range.
• Prototyping and Evaluation — Use the device’s moderate logic and memory capacity for proof-of-concept designs and functional validation.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Integration: Combines 576 logic elements with 12,288 bits of embedded RAM to reduce external component count for moderate-complexity designs.
• Flexible I/O Count: Ninety-two user I/O pins enable diverse peripheral and interface options without resorting to larger packages.
• Compact Surface-Mount Package: The 144-LQFP surface-mount package supports dense PCB layouts while keeping the BOM streamlined.
• Family-Level Capabilities: Leverages ACEX‑1K family features such as embedded array blocks, dual-port memory capability, and JTAG boundary-scan for in-system test and configuration.
• Commercial Temperature and Low-Voltage Operation: Commercial-grade 0 °C to 70 °C rating and a defined supply range (2.375 V to 2.625 V) to match common 2.5‑V system architectures.
• RoHS Compliance: Environmentally compliant for designs requiring lead‑free assembly processes.
