EPF10K50RI240-4N

The EPF10K50RI240-4N is an Intel FLEX-10K family field programmable gate array supplied in a 240-pin BFQFP package with exposed pad. It provides a mid-range programmable logic solution combining 2,880 logic elements, embedded memory, and substantial I/O density for industrial embedded designs.

Ideal for industrial control and embedded processing tasks, this device delivers reconfigurable logic, on-chip RAM, and a robust I/O complement while supporting a 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply and industrial temperature operation from −40 °C to 85 °C.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity  2,880 logic elements and 360 logic-array blocks provide a flexible fabric for implementing custom logic and state machines.
• On-chip Memory  Approximately 20,480 bits of embedded RAM organized across embedded array blocks (EABs) to support FIFOs, small buffers, and lookup tables.
• Gate Density  Up to 116,000 maximum system gates, enabling complex logic integration within a single device.
• I/O Density  189 user I/O pins to interface with sensors, actuators, memory, and peripheral devices.
• Power and Temperature  Designed for a 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply range and rated for industrial operation from −40 °C to 85 °C.
• Package and Mounting  Surface-mount 240-BFQFP with exposed pad (supplier package 240-RQFP, 32 × 32) for thermal performance and board-level mounting.
• Reconfiguration and Test  Supports in-circuit reconfigurability and includes JTAG boundary-scan test capability as part of the FLEX 10K family features for configuration and test access.
• Architecture-Level Features  Family-level capabilities include dedicated carry and cascade chains, low-skew clock distribution, and advanced interconnect structures to simplify implementation of arithmetic, wide logic, and high-speed signals.
• RoHS Compliant  Device is RoHS compliant for regulated environmental requirements.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control  Implement motor control logic, process sequencing, and I/O aggregation where industrial temperature range and robust I/O count are required.
• Embedded Systems  Integrate glue logic, protocol bridging, and small on-chip buffers for embedded controllers and custom processing blocks.
• Communication Interface  Realize parallel and serial interface logic, timing-critical glue, and protocol handling using the device’s I/O resources and dedicated arithmetic chains.
• Machine and Instrumentation  Use for sensor interfacing, data conditioning, and local decision logic that benefit from reconfigurable hardware and on-chip RAM.

Unique Advantages

• Reconfigurable integration: In-circuit reconfigurability lets you update logic in-system to iterate designs or add features without board changes.
• Balanced resources: Combination of 2,880 logic elements and ~20,480 bits of embedded RAM supports both control logic and data buffering in one device.
• High I/O count: 189 user I/O pins simplify direct interfacing to a wide range of peripherals and external devices, reducing the need for external multiplexers or expanders.
• Industrial readiness: Rated for −40 °C to 85 °C and supplied in a thermally enhanced BFQFP exposed-pad package suitable for industrial applications.
• Proven family capabilities: FLEX 10K family features such as dedicated carry/cascade chains and low-skew clock distribution help accelerate implementation of arithmetic and timing-sensitive designs.
• Standards-driven testability: JTAG boundary-scan support eases board-level test and diagnostics during manufacturing and service.
