EP20K60EFC144-2

The EP20K60EFC144-2 is an APEX-20K® field programmable gate array (FPGA) manufactured by Altera. It provides a compact, commercial-grade FPGA fabric with 2,560 logic elements, embedded RAM, and a 92-pin I/O set for configurable digital designs.

Designed for commercial electronic systems, this device offers a defined voltage supply range and a standard 144-pin LQFP surface-mount package for straightforward board-level integration.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity  2,560 logic elements available for implementing custom digital functions and state machines.
• Embedded Memory  32,768 bits of on-chip RAM (approximately 32.8 Kbits) to support buffering, lookup tables, and small data storage needs.
• I/O Count  92 general-purpose I/O pins to interface with peripherals, sensors, and other system components.
• Gate Equivalent  Rated at 162,000 gates for design sizing and partitioning considerations.
• Power Supply  Specified core voltage supply range of 1.71 V to 1.89 V for power budgeting and regulator selection.
• Package & Mounting  Available in a 144-LQFP package; supplier device package listed as 144-TQFP (20×20). Surface-mount mounting type simplifies automated PCB assembly.
• Operating Conditions  Commercial-grade device with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Environmental Compliance  RoHS compliant for regulatory and manufacturing compliance requirements.

Typical Applications

• Configurable Control Logic  Implement glue logic, protocol bridges, and custom control functions using the device's 2,560 logic elements and on-chip RAM.
• Digital Prototyping  Use the FPGA to validate and iterate custom digital designs before committing to fixed silicon.
• Peripheral and Interface Handling  Leverage 92 I/Os to connect a variety of external devices and to implement custom I/O timing and sequencing.

Unique Advantages

• Right-sized Logic Density: 2,560 logic elements provide a balance of capacity and board-level cost for moderate-complexity designs.
• On-chip RAM for Local Storage: 32,768 bits of embedded memory reduce external memory requirements for small buffers and LUT-based implementations.
• Clear Power Envelope: Narrow supply range (1.71 V–1.89 V) simplifies regulator selection and power budgeting in the system design.
• Standard Surface-mount Package: 144-pin LQFP / 144-TQFP (20×20) packaging supports common PCB assembly flows and compact board layouts.
• Commercial Temperature Rating: Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C, aligning with a wide range of commercial electronic product environments.
• RoHS Compliance: Meets RoHS requirements for regulated manufacturing processes.
