EPF81500AQC240-2N

The EPF81500AQC240-2N is a FLEX 8000 family field-programmable logic device offering 1,296 logic elements organized across 162 logic array blocks and up to 16,000 usable gates. Packaged in a 240-pin BFQFP (surface-mount) and rated for commercial operation, it provides 181 user I/O pins and a 4.75 V to 5.25 V supply window.

Designed for system-level integration, this FLEX 8000 device targets applications such as bus interfaces, TTL integration, coprocessor functions, high-speed controllers, DSP and wide-data-path manipulation, and data transformation — providing a balance of fine-grained logic, abundant register resources, and predictable interconnect behavior.

Key Features

• Core — Logic Elements & Capacity 1,296 logic elements organized in 162 logic array blocks, supporting approximately 16,000 usable gates for medium-density programmable logic implementations.
• I/O & Voltage 181 user I/O pins with a device supply range of 4.75 V to 5.25 V. The FLEX 8000 family includes MultiVolt I/O capabilities described in the series documentation to accommodate mixed 5.0 V and 3.3 V logic-level environments.
• Routing & Arithmetic Support FastTrack continuous interconnect architecture with dedicated carry and cascade chains for efficient implementation of adders, counters, comparators and high‑fan‑in logic functions.
• System-Level Features Supports in-circuit reconfigurability via external configuration devices or an intelligent controller and includes family-level JTAG boundary-scan test support as described in the FLEX 8000 datasheet.
• Package & Mounting Surface-mount 240-BFQFP package (supplier reference: 240-PQFP 32×32), suitable for high-pin-count board integration where multiple buses or wide data paths are required.
• Operating Range & Environmental Commercial grade device with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 70 °C and RoHS-compliant status.
• Design Ecosystem Supported by the FLEX 8000 family design flow and tools referenced in the device documentation, including Altera MAX+PLUS II development-system support listed in the series datasheet.

Typical Applications

• Bus Interfaces and Bridge Logic Implement multi-bus interfaces and TTL-level integration with abundant I/O and a 240-pin package that can consolidate multiple 32-bit buses.
• Embedded Controllers & High-Speed Control Use the device’s logic density and register-rich architecture for timing-critical control, high-speed state machines, and custom controller logic.
• DSP & Wide Data-Path Processing Apply the dedicated carry and cascade chains along with high register counts for data transformation, wide-data-path manipulation, and DSP building blocks.
• Coprocessors & Custom Accelerator Functions Implement offload or acceleration functions with compact LUT-based logic and predictable interconnect delays to maintain system timing.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Density and Register Resources: 1,296 logic elements and a high register count enable complex stateful logic and data-path designs without over-provisioning.
• Predictable Interconnect: FastTrack continuous routing structure reduces variability in interconnect delays for more deterministic timing behavior.
• Dedicated Arithmetic Chains: Built-in carry and cascade chains simplify implementation of adders, counters and high‑fan‑in logic, accelerating design and synthesis.
• Flexible System Integration: 181 user I/O pins and a 240-pin BFQFP package allow consolidation of multiple buses and broad peripheral interfacing.
• Commercial-Grade, RoHS Compliant: Commercial temperature rating (0 °C to 70 °C) and RoHS compliance support standard embedded and industrial-adjacent applications.
