EPF6010ATC144-3N

The EPF6010ATC144-3N is a member of the FLEX 6000 programmable logic family, offering a register-rich, look-up table (LUT) based architecture optimized for area efficiency via OptiFLEX. With 880 logic elements and up to 102 I/O in a 144-pin surface-mount package, it targets low-cost gate-array replacement, rapid prototyping, and commercial embedded designs that require flexible, reprogrammable logic.

Key value comes from compact, reconfigurable silicon combined with system-level features such as in-circuit reconfigurability and JTAG boundary-scan testability, enabling fast design iteration and easier board-level integration within a commercial temperature range.

Key Features

• OptiFLEX architecture — Area-efficient device architecture that minimizes die size while maintaining routability.
• Register-rich, LUT-based core — Flexible logic implementation using lookup tables and abundant registers for synchronous designs.
• Logic resources — Approximately 880 logic elements and a typical gate count of 10,000 for small-to-medium density designs.
• I/O and voltage — Up to 102 I/O pins with MultiVolt I/O interface capability; device supply specified at 3 V to 3.6 V.
• Clocking and interconnect — Built-in low-skew clock distribution tree and FastTrack continuous routing structure for predictable interconnect delays; dedicated carry and cascade chains for arithmetic and high-fan-in logic.
• Configuration and test — Supports in-circuit reconfigurability via external configuration device or intelligent controller; includes IEEE Std. 1149.1-1990 JTAG boundary-scan circuitry without consuming additional user logic.
• Low power — Typical standby-mode current less than 0.5 mA as specified in the FLEX 6000 family data.
• Package and mounting — Surface-mount in a 144-pin TQFP/LQFP form factor (supplier package listed as 144-TQFP, 20×20), suitable for compact board layouts.
• Commercial operating range & compliance — Commercial grade with operating temperature 0 °C to 85 °C and RoHS compliance.
• Design tool support — Family supported by Altera’s development system and standard HDL/EDA interfaces for synthesis, place-and-route, and simulation workflows.

Typical Applications

• Prototyping and design validation — Reprogrammable logic enables fast iteration and functionality changes during prototype and test phases.
• Low-cost gate-array replacement — Suitable where a programmable alternative to a high-volume gate array is required to reduce time-to-market and support late-stage changes.
• Voltage-domain bridging and interface logic — MultiVolt I/O capability allows bridging between systems operating at different I/O voltages and consolidating interface logic.
• Custom control and glue logic — Compact logic resources and dedicated arithmetic chains provide an efficient solution for consolidating peripheral control and custom combinational/sequential logic in commercial products.

Unique Advantages

• Area-efficient implementation: OptiFLEX architecture reduces die area while preserving routability, helping lower BOM cost for volume designs.
• Fast iteration with in-circuit reconfigurability: Change device functionality during operation or field updates without board-level replacements.
• Predictable timing and fast arithmetic: FastTrack interconnect, low-skew global paths, and dedicated carry/cascade chains improve timing predictability for common arithmetic functions.
• Built-in testability: IEEE 1149.1 JTAG boundary-scan support is available without consuming user logic, simplifying board-level test and diagnostics.
• Compact packaging for dense boards: 144-pin surface-mount package (TQFP/LQFP) balances pin count and PCB area for compact commercial designs.
• Established toolchain support: Supported by Altera’s development tools and standard HDL/EDA interfaces to streamline synthesis, simulation, and place-and-route.

Why Choose EPF6010ATC144-3N?

The EPF6010ATC144-3N delivers a practical combination of reprogrammability, compact logic capacity, and flexible I/O in a commercial-grade FPGA.
