EP20K100CT144C8ES

The EP20K100CT144C8ES is an APEX-20K® family field programmable gate array (FPGA) in a 144-lead LQFP package. It provides on-chip programmable logic and memory resources in a surface-mount 144-LQFP (supplier package: 144-TQFP, 20×20) footprint for commercial-grade embedded designs.

With 4,160 logic elements, 53,248 bits of embedded RAM, and 93 general-purpose I/Os, this device is targeted at designs that require moderate amounts of programmable logic, local memory, and flexible I/O in a compact package. It operates from a supply range of 2.375 V to 2.625 V and is specified for 0 °C to 85 °C operation.

Key Features

• Programmable Logic — Approximately 4,160 logic elements and 416 CLB units for implementing custom logic, state machines, and glue logic.
• Embedded Memory — 53,248 bits of on-chip RAM (approximately 0.05 Mbits) for data buffering, small FIFOs, and local storage.
• I/O Count — 93 user I/Os to interface with peripherals, sensors, and external devices.
• Gate Capacity — Equivalent to 263,000 gates for sizing logic and hierarchical blocks.
• Power and Supply — Core supply range of 2.375 V to 2.625 V to match targeted system power rails.
• Package and Mounting — 144-LQFP package (supplier device package: 144-TQFP, 20×20) with surface-mount mounting for compact PCB integration.
• Operating Range — Commercial grade specified for 0 °C to 85 °C ambient operation.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Logic and Glue — Implement custom protocol bridges, timing glue, and control logic where ~4,160 logic elements and 93 I/Os meet system requirements.
• Prototyping and Development — Suitable for board-level FPGA prototypes and proof-of-concept designs that require a compact 144-LQFP footprint.
• Local Data Handling — Use the 53,248 bits of embedded RAM for small buffers, FIFOs, or local configuration storage within embedded subsystems.

Unique Advantages

• Compact, Surface-Mount Package: 144-LQFP (20×20 TQFP footprint) enables integration into space-constrained PCBs while keeping a moderate I/O count.
• Balanced Logic and Memory: The combination of ~4,160 logic elements and 53,248 bits of RAM supports mixed logic and small data-storage requirements without external memory.
• Flexible I/O Capacity: Ninety-three user I/Os provide room for parallel interfaces, control signals, and peripheral connections.
• Defined Commercial Operating Range: Specified for 0 °C to 85 °C to match typical commercial embedded applications.
• RoHS Compliant: Meets environmental compliance requirements for lead-free assembly processes.
