EPF10K50SQC240-1

The EPF10K50SQC240-1 is a FLEX-10KS series Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC from Intel. Built on the FLEX 10K family architecture, it combines a dedicated logic array with embedded memory blocks and system-level features suited to commercial embedded designs.

With 2,880 logic elements, approximately 199,000 gates and approximately 40,960 bits of embedded RAM, this surface-mount device targets applications that require moderate logic density, substantial I/O count and board-level integration in a 240-pin BFQFP package.

Key Features

• Core Logic  2,880 logic elements and 360 logic array blocks provide the programmable resources for custom logic implementation.
• Gate Equivalent  Approximately 199,000 gates for combined logic and RAM capacity.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 40,960 total RAM bits of on-chip memory for data buffering and lookup tables.
• I/O and Packaging  189 user I/O pins in a 240-BFQFP surface-mount package (supplier package: 240-PQFP 32×32) for extensive board-level interfacing.
• Power and Supply  Specified operating supply range of 2.375 V to 2.625 V to match target system rails.
• Operating Range & Grade  Commercial-grade device specified for 0 °C to 70 °C operation; RoHS compliant.
• FLEX 10K Family System Features  Built on the FLEX 10K family which includes family-level capabilities such as embedded arrays for megafunctions, in-circuit reconfigurability, JTAG boundary-scan test (IEEE 1149.1), dedicated carry and cascade chains, and low-skew clock distribution trees.
• Mounting  Surface mount for standard SMT assembly processes.

Typical Applications

• Custom Embedded Logic  Implements glue logic, protocol translation and application-specific accelerators where 2,880 logic elements and embedded RAM enable compact designs.
• Interface and I/O Management  High I/O count supports board-level peripheral interfacing, bus bridging and custom I/O functions in commercial products.
• Prototyping and Development  Useful for development platforms and proof-of-concept systems that require reprogrammable logic and on-chip memory.
• Control and Sequencing  Programmable logic and embedded RAM are well suited for finite-state machines, control logic and timing-critical glue on commercial PCBs.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory:  A combination of 2,880 logic elements and ~40,960 bits of embedded RAM lets designers implement both combinational/sequential logic and local data storage without large external RAM requirements.
• High I/O Density:  189 user I/Os in a 240-pin BFQFP footprint enables complex board-level connectivity while retaining a compact package outline.
• FLEX 10K Family Capabilities:  Family-level features such as JTAG boundary-scan and in-circuit reconfigurability streamline development, testing and field updates.
• Commercial-Grade, RoHS-Compliant:  Specified commercial temperature range and RoHS compliance simplify procurement and environmental compliance for mainstream products.
• Surface-Mount Packaging:  240-BFQFP surface-mount package supports standard PCB assembly and rework processes.
