EP20K100CQ240C9 Übersicht
An FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) is a programmable logic device that allows engineers to implement custom digital circuits through configurable logic blocks (LABs), embedded memory arrays (ESBs), and programmable interconnect. Within the broader semiconductor taxonomy, FPGAs sit alongside ASICs, CPLDs, and microcontrollers as reconfigurable compute elements. The APEX 20K series was Intel/Altera's first device family to combine logic, memory, and dedicated I/O on a single die, enabling system-on-chip designs without external glue logic.
Key features include 100,000 typical gates, 4,160 logic elements distributed across multiple Logic Array Blocks, 53,248 bits of embedded SRAM, 189 user I/O pins, and 4 Phase-Locked Loops (PLLs) for clock management. The device supports multiple I/O standards including LVTTL, LVCMOS, PCI, and GTL, with per-pin output enable and programmable slew rate. The C9 speed grade denotes a -9 commercial-grade timing class, balancing logic density with timing closure for moderate-speed designs.
Architecture-wise, the APEX 20K combines Look-Up Table (LUT)-based logic elements with Embedded System Blocks (ESBs) that can be configured as either dual-port RAM, ROM, or CAM. Four PLLs provide on-chip clock multiplication, division, phase shifting, and skew compensation. MultiCore voltage islands and JTAG boundary-scan (IEEE 1149.1) support simplify board-level testing.
Typical applications include telecommunications infrastructure, industrial control, ASIC prototyping, glue logic replacement, and high-speed data-path designs. The 189 I/O count supports parallel bus architectures common in DSP front-ends and protocol bridges.
Design consideration: route all clock signals through dedicated PLL outputs to minimize skew, and consult the APEX 20K handbook for I/O standard bank restrictions. Designers migrating to modern Intel/Altera FPGAs should note the APEX 20K is in legacy/last-time-buy status.

Wichtigste Unterscheidungsmerkmale
- Highest logic density in the APEX 20K family at 240-pin QFP (vs. EP20K200CQ240C9)
- Same package as faster commercial speed grades (vs. EP20K100CQ240C8)
- 189 I/O pins support high-pin-count designs (vs. EP20K100CF144C9)
Designhinweise
Estimated: The APEX 20K EP20K100CQ240C9 requires separate VCCINT (core) and VCCIO (I/O) supplies; typical VCCINT is 2.5V and VCCIO is 3.3V or 2.5V depending on I/O standard. Decoupling requires 0.1µF ceramic capacitors near every supply pin plus bulk capacitors on each supply rail. Consult the APEX 20K handbook for exact voltage tolerances and power-on sequencing requirements.
The 240-BQFP package has limited thermal dissipation compared to BGA packages. Estimated: at maximum toggle rate and 100% I/O utilization, junction temperature can rise 15-20°C above ambient. For commercial (0°C to +85°C) operation, ensure adequate airflow or thermal copper pours on the PCB to maintain junction temperature below 125°C.
Route all clock inputs through dedicated PLL clock pins (CLK0-CLK3) for best jitter performance. JTAG (TCK/TMS/TDI/TDO) signals should be routed with impedance control and isolated from switching signals. Configuration pins (MSEL0, MSEL1, MSEL2, nCE, nCONFIG, CONF_DONE, nSTATUS, DCLK, DATA0) must be properly pulled up/down per the selected configuration mode.
Do not confuse the EP20K100CQ240C9 with EP20K100BC356 (different package) or EP20K200CQ240C9 (different density). The C9 suffix indicates a -9 commercial speed grade; for industrial temperature range, look for -I or industrial-grade variants. Last Time Buy status means production is discontinued - plan obsolescence mitigation.
Compliance-Informationen
Compliance status not explicitly stated in verified web data. APEX 20K family predates widespread RoHS transition; some variants may be non-RoHS. Verify with supplier before use in RoHS-required designs.
