EP2C5T144C8N

The EP2C5T144C8N is an Intel Cyclone® II family FPGA providing a compact, low-voltage programmable logic solution. It combines 4,608 logic elements with on-chip embedded memory and 89 user I/O in a 144-pin LQFP package for space-constrained, commercial-grade designs.

Designed for low-cost embedded processing and DSP-focused applications, this device offers a balanced mix of logic resources, memory, and I/O while operating from a 1.15 V to 1.25 V core supply and a commercial temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C.

Key Features

• Core Logic  4,608 logic elements suitable for mid-range programmable logic integration and custom control functions.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 0.12 Mbits (119,808 bits) of on-chip RAM to support buffering, small lookup tables, and state storage.
• I/O Capability  89 user I/O pins for interfacing with peripherals, sensors, and external devices in mixed-signal systems.
• Voltage and Power  Core supply range of 1.15 V to 1.25 V enabling low-voltage operation and compatibility with Cyclone II voltage requirements.
• Package & Mounting  144-LQFP surface-mount package (supplier device package: 144-TQFP 20 × 20) for PCB designs with limited board area.
• Operating Range & Grade  Commercial grade with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C for mainstream electronic products.
• Compliance  RoHS compliant for use in assemblies requiring restricted substance conformity.
• Documented Architecture  Part of the Cyclone II device family with available device handbook and architecture reference material for implementation guidance.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Processing  Implement control logic, glue logic, and custom finite state machines using integrated logic and memory resources.
• DSP and Signal Conditioning  Use the Cyclone II architecture for low-cost DSP tasks and intermediate signal processing where moderate logic and memory are sufficient.
• I/O Bridging and Interface Control  Leverage 89 user I/O pins to interface between microcontrollers, sensors, and external peripherals in compact systems.
• Prototyping and Evaluation  Ideal for proof-of-concept boards and product development where a commercial-grade, documented FPGA family is required.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Resource Set:  4,608 logic elements and on-chip RAM provide a mid-range resource mix that supports a wide variety of embedded and DSP tasks without excess overhead.
• Compact Package:  144-LQFP (surface mount) and 20 × 20 supplier package footprint simplify board layout for space-constrained designs.
• Low-Voltage Operation:  1.15 V–1.25 V core supply reduces power domain complexity in multi-voltage systems.
• Documented Family Support:  Backed by the Cyclone II device handbook and architecture documentation to aid design, configuration, and timing analysis.
• Commercial Readiness:  Commercial grade with 0 °C–85 °C operating range and RoHS compliance for mainstream product deployment.
• Flexible I/O Count:  89 I/O pins enable versatile peripheral interfacing and protocol bridging without external expanders in many designs.
