EP1K30TI144-2NGA

The EP1K30TI144-2NGA is an Intel ACEX-1K field programmable gate array (FPGA) designed for compact, low-power embedded systems. It combines a logic array with an embedded array block (EAB)-based memory architecture to implement specialized logic and on-chip dual-port memory functions.

Targeted at industrial applications, this device delivers reconfigurable integration for communications, control, and system-on-a-programmable-chip (SOPC) designs while supporting extended temperature operation and RoHS compliance.

Key Features

• Core Logic  1,728 logic elements (LEs) and up to 119,000 system gates provide programmable logic capacity for control, glue logic, and custom processing blocks.
• Embedded Memory  24,576 total RAM bits implemented across embedded array blocks (EABs); EAB architecture supports dual-port operation with up to 16-bit width per block for efficient on-chip buffering and storage.
• I/O and Voltage  102 user I/O pins with MultiVolt I/O capability described in the ACEX-1K family; device operates with a 2.5 V internal supply and requires an external supply in the range 2.375 V to 2.625 V.
• Reconfiguration and Test  In-circuit reconfigurability (ICR) and built-in JTAG boundary-scan test (BST) compliant with IEEE 1149.1 provide flexible programming and board-level test access without consuming user logic.
• Clocking and Timing  Built-in low-skew clock distribution trees with ClockLock and ClockBoost options (ACEX-1K family features) help reduce clock delay and skew for synchronous designs.
• Dedicated Arithmetic and Routing  Dedicated carry and cascade chains plus the FastTrack continuous routing structure enable efficient implementation of adders, counters, high-fan-in logic, and predictable interconnect delays.
• Package and Mounting  144-LQFP package (supplier device package: 144-TQFP 20×20) in a surface-mount form factor for compact PCB designs.
• Temperature and Compliance  Industrial-grade operation from −40°C to 85°C and RoHS-compliant manufacturing.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control  Implement control logic, deterministic I/O handling, and embedded peripherals for sensors and actuators within industrial automation systems.
• Communications Interfaces  Use the device’s logic and embedded RAM blocks for protocol bridging, protocol offload, and buffering in communication equipment.
• SOPC and Embedded Systems  Integrate custom processing functions, glue logic, and on-chip memory into compact system-on-a-programmable-chip designs.
• Board-Level Test and In-System Updates  Leverage JTAG boundary-scan and in-circuit reconfigurability for streamlined test, debug, and field updates.

Unique Advantages

• Highly integrated solution: 1,728 logic elements and 24,576 bits of embedded RAM reduce the need for external glue logic and memory, lowering BOM and PCB complexity.
• Flexible memory architecture: Dual-port EABs with up to 16-bit width enable efficient on-chip buffering and shared-memory designs without sacrificing logic capacity.
• Industrial-ready operation: Specified for −40°C to 85°C operation to meet the thermal requirements of industrial applications.
• In-system programmability and test: ICR and IEEE 1149.1 JTAG boundary-scan support simplify field updates and board-level diagnostics.
• Deterministic timing building blocks: Dedicated carry and cascade chains plus low-skew clocking support compact, high-performance arithmetic and synchronous logic implementations.
• Compact surface-mount package: 144-LQFP footprint balances I/O count and board space for space-constrained designs.
