EP20K100CF144C7ES

The EP20K100CF144C7ES is an Intel APEX-20K® field programmable gate array (FPGA) in a 144-lead LQFP package intended for commercial embedded designs. It provides mid-range logic capacity and on-chip memory with a compact surface-mount package suited for space-constrained PCB layouts.

Targeted at designers of commercial electronic systems, this device delivers 4,160 logic elements, 93 user I/O pins and approximately 0.053 Mbits of embedded RAM, combined with a 2.375 V–2.625 V core supply and a standard 0 °C to 85 °C operating range.

Key Features

• Core Logic 4,160 logic elements (cells) and approximately 263,000 gates provide mid-range programmable logic capacity for glue logic, control functions and custom finite-state machines.
• Embedded Memory Approximately 53,248 bits of on-chip RAM (approximately 0.053 Mbits) for small buffers, FIFOs and register storage without external memory.
• I/O Count 93 general-purpose I/O pins to support multiple peripheral interfaces, sensor inputs and GPIO requirements on compact designs.
• Power and Supply Core supply range of 2.375 V to 2.625 V for deterministic power design and integration into systems with similar supply rails.
• Package & Mounting 144-LQFP package (supplier device package noted as 144-TQFP, 20 × 20 mm) with surface-mount mounting type, enabling low-profile board integration.
• Operating Range & Grade Commercial grade device rated for an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C to meet typical commercial embedded application environments.
• Environmental Compliance RoHS compliant to support modern manufacturing and environmental requirements.

Typical Applications

• Commercial Embedded Systems Implement control logic, protocol bridges or custom interfaces where mid-level programmable logic and moderate I/O count are required.
• Consumer Electronics Integrate user-interface control, peripheral management and timing functions in compact products that demand surface-mount packaging.
• Sensor Aggregation & Preprocessing Aggregate multiple sensor inputs and perform lightweight preprocessing or glue logic before passing data to a main processor.
• Prototyping & Development Use as a development platform for validating custom logic, timing and I/O interactions in early-stage product designs.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic Density: 4,160 logic elements provide a practical balance for medium-complexity designs without the cost or board area of larger FPGAs.
• Compact, Surface-Mount Package: 144-LQFP (20 × 20 mm TQFP-equivalent) supports compact PCB layouts and straightforward manufacturing using standard SMT assembly.
• Generous I/O Count: Ninety-three I/O pins enable integration of multiple peripherals and interfaces without immediate need for external expander components.
• Embedded RAM for On-Chip Buffers: Approximately 0.053 Mbits of RAM allows small FIFOs, LUT-based storage and temporary buffering within the FPGA fabric.
• Clear Commercial Specification: Documented operating temperature of 0 °C to 85 °C and commercial-grade classification align with mainstream electronics product requirements.
• Regulatory-Friendly: RoHS compliance helps simplify product compliance and manufacturing planning.
