EP20K100CT144C8

The EP20K100CT144C8 is an APEX-20K® field-programmable gate array (FPGA) IC from Intel, delivered in a 144-pin LQFP package. It provides a mid-range FPGA fabric with a combination of programmable logic, on-chip memory, and a substantial I/O count for compact system designs.

Designed for commercial-temperature applications, this surface-mount device targets designs that require configurable logic resources, moderate embedded memory, and a defined supply-voltage window. Key delivered metrics include 4,160 logic elements, approximately 0.05 Mbits of embedded memory, 93 I/O pins and an estimated 263,000 gates.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity  4,160 logic elements provided for implementing custom digital logic, state machines and glue logic within a single FPGA device.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 0.05 Mbits of on-chip RAM (53,248 total RAM bits) to support small buffers, lookup tables and local storage.
• I/O and Gate Count  93 I/O pins and an estimated 263,000 logic gates to support multiple peripheral connections and complex combinatorial/sequential logic.
• Power and Supply  Defined core supply range of 2.375 V to 2.625 V to match system power-rail designs and simplify power budgeting.
• Package and Mounting  144-LQFP package (supplier device package listed as 144-TQFP, 20×20 mm) in a surface-mount form factor for PCB integration in space-constrained assemblies.
• Operating Range and Grade  Commercial temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C and commercial grade classification for general-purpose embedded applications.
• Environmental Compliance  RoHS compliant to support lead-free manufacturing processes.

Typical Applications

• Custom digital logic  Implement state machines, protocol converters and glue logic where 4,160 logic elements meet mid-range combinational and sequential design needs.
• I/O bridging and interface handling  Use the device’s 93 I/O pins to connect sensors, peripherals and buses in compact embedded systems requiring flexible I/O mapping.
• Local buffering and small memory tasks  Leverage the on-chip RAM (≈0.05 Mbits) for small FIFOs, lookup tables or temporary data storage close to logic functions.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced logic and memory mix  4,160 logic elements combined with 53,248 RAM bits provide an effective balance for designs that need both programmable logic and modest embedded memory.
• Compact, manufacturable package  144-LQFP / 144-TQFP (20×20) footprint and surface-mount mounting simplify PCB layout and high-density board assembly.
• Clear power envelope  A narrow supply-voltage range (2.375 V to 2.625 V) enables predictable power design and easier rail specification.
• Commercial temperature suitability  Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C, suitable for general-purpose consumer and industrial-adjacent electronic designs operating in standard ambient conditions.
• Regulatory readiness  RoHS compliance supports lead-free production workflows and environmental requirements.

Why Choose EP20K100CT144C8?

EP20K100CT144C8 positions itself as a practical APEX-20K® FPGA option when designers need a mid-range programmable fabric with a defined set of resources: 4,160 logic elements, more than fifty thousand bits of embedded RAM, and a substantial I/O count in a compact 144-pin package. Its commercial temperature rating and RoHS compliance make it suitable for a wide range of standard embedded applications.

This device is well suited for engineering teams building compact, configurable logic subsystems where predictable supply requirements, modest local memory and a mid-level gate budget are priorities. The package and mounting style support modern surface-mount manufacturing while the resource mix helps reduce external component count by consolidating logic and small memory needs on-chip.
