EP1K50QC208-2

The EP1K50QC208-2 is an ACEX-1K series Field Programmable Gate Array offering moderate logic density and embedded memory in a commercial-grade surface-mount package. It combines programmable logic, embedded array blocks, and flexible I/O to support SOPC-style integration for communications, control, and custom logic functions.

Designed for applications that require on-chip RAM, mid-range gate count and a compact 208-pin BFQFP footprint, this device delivers 2,880 logic elements, approximately 40,960 bits of embedded RAM and up to 147 user I/O pins while operating over a 2.375 V to 2.625 V supply range.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity  2,880 logic elements providing support for mid-density logic implementations and custom finite state machines.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 40,960 bits of on-chip RAM, with embedded array block (EAB) architecture that supports dual-port operation and efficient megafunction implementation.
• Gate Scale  Supports up to 199,000 system gates for integrating a mix of logic, control and data-path functions on a single device.
• I/O and Voltage  147 user I/O pins and a documented supply range of 2.375 V to 2.625 V; the ACEX-1K family supports MultiVolt I/O behavior as described in the family datasheet.
• Package and Mounting  208-BFQFP (208-PQFP 28×28) surface-mount package for dense board-level integration and standard assembly processes.
• Configuration and Test  Supports in-circuit reconfigurability and includes JTAG boundary-scan (IEEE 1149.1) for programming and board-level test access.
• Clock and Interconnect  Family features include low-skew clock distribution and dedicated carry/cascade chains to accelerate arithmetic and high-fan-in logic (as specified for the ACEX-1K family).
• Compliance and Temperature  Commercial grade device with operating temperature range 0 °C to 70 °C and RoHS compliance for lead-free assembly.

Typical Applications

• Communications and Networking  Use for protocol bridging, packet buffering and custom data-path logic where on-chip RAM and moderate gate density reduce board-level components.
• Embedded System Integration  SOPC-style integration of control logic, glue logic and peripheral interfaces for commercial electronic products.
• Interface and Level Conversion  Implement mixed-voltage interface logic and buffering in systems that require flexible I/O and programmable control.
• Custom Logic Accelerators  Offload recurring arithmetic or control functions using dedicated carry and cascade chains plus embedded RAM for state and look-up tables.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory:  With 2,880 logic elements and roughly 40,960 bits of embedded RAM, the device supports combined control and data storage needs in a single component.
• Compact, Surface-Mount Package:  The 208-BFQFP package enables high-density PCB layouts while remaining compatible with standard surface-mount assembly.
• In-Circuit Reconfigurability:  Supports reprogramming via external configuration devices or the JTAG port to simplify firmware updates and iterative development.
• Test and Debug Support:  Built-in JTAG boundary-scan provides board-level testability without consuming device logic resources.
• Commercial Ready:  Commercial temperature grading (0 °C to 70 °C) and RoHS compliance address common regulatory and environmental requirements for mainstream electronics.
• Vendor Design Ecosystem:  Part of the ACEX-1K family with documented family-level design support and tool compatibility noted in the series datasheet.
