EP1K100QI208-3 Descripción general

The Altera EP1K100QI208-3 is a member of the FLEX 10K / ACEX 1K family of CMOS Field Programmable Gate Arrays, delivering approximately 100,000 gates organized as 4,992 logic cells across 624 Configurable Logic Blocks (CLBs). Housed in a 208-pin Power Quad Flat Pack (PQFP / QFP, gull-wing) package, the device provides 147 general-purpose user I/O pins plus 6 dedicated inputs, targeting high-performance logic, glue-logic, and DSP datapath applications. It is built on a 2.5 V nominal core supply (max 2.625 V) and operates over the industrial temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C.

A Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is a type of programmable logic device (PLD) that combines an array of configurable logic blocks, programmable interconnect, and I/O cells on a single CMOS die. The ACEX 1K family sits in the hierarchy: programmable logic device -> CPLD/FPGA -> SRAM-based FPGA -> ACEX 1K, representing one of the early low-cost, high-volume SRAM-lookup-table FPGA families from Altera (later acquired by Intel). Each logic element uses a 4-input LUT plus a register, and the embedded array blocks (EABs) can be configured as RAM, ROM, or multiplier primitives, allowing designers to mix datapath and control logic without external memory.

Key features include 4,992 logic cells / 624 CLBs, ~100 K system gates, 147 user I/Os, an embedded array block memory architecture, JTAG-based IEEE 1149.1 boundary-scan support, and an SRAM-based configuration cell that loads from a serial or parallel EPROM. The "-3" speed grade corresponds to the fastest commercial timing bin offered for this device family, enabling higher fMAX on internal logic and shorter pin-to-pin tPD delays than the slower -1 or -2 grades. The PQFP-208 package has a thermal resistance suitable for forced-air or large-copper PCB designs commonly used in telecom and industrial control chassis.

Typical applications include telecommunications line-card glue logic, industrial motor-control state machines, ASIC prototyping, DSP pre/post-processing pipelines, and legacy PCI/ISA bus-interface bridges where the 5 V-tolerant I/O and rich register fabric are advantageous. Designers often pair the EP1K100QI208-3 with an EPC2 configuration device to store the bitstream.

When designing with this part, ensure the JTAG chain is correctly ordered with any downstream devices, since multi-device scan chains are a common source of configuration failures. Verify the configuration mode (AS, PS, or JTAG) matches the EPC2 / EPC4 selected, and never apply VCC before the configuration device is stable.

Aplicaciones típicas

EP1K100QI208-3 es adecuado para 6 aplicacións: Telecommunications Line-Card Glue Logic, Industrial Motor Control State Machines, ASIC Prototyping and Emulation, DSP Pre-Processing and Post-Processing Pipelines, Legacy PCI / ISA Bus Interface Bridges, Test and Measurement Instrumentation Front-Ends.

🌐

Telecommunications Line-Card Glue Logic

The EP1K100QI208-3 is well-suited to telecom line-card glue logic where 147 user I/Os accommodate parallel bus interfaces to framers, TDM crossbars, and PHY devices. Its 4,992 logic cells and EAB-based RAM blocks can implement small FIFOs and elastic buffers between asynchronous domains. The PQFP-208 footprint is compatible with legacy 5 V-tolerant I/O banks, allowing direct interface to classic telecom backplanes. Industrial temperature grade supports outdoor cabinet deployments. The -3 speed bin delivers fMAX headroom for 155 Mbps POS/SDH glue, while remaining within timing closure on Quartus II synthesis flows.

🏭

Industrial Motor Control State Machines

Industrial motor drives demand deterministic state machines for PWM generation, fault handling, and CAN/RS-485 protocol bridging. The EP1K100QI208-3's 4,992 logic cells provide comfortable headroom for closed-loop current-control state machines plus encoder-decoder logic, while 147 I/Os interface to gate drivers, ADC data buses, and HMI displays. Industrial -40 to +85C rating tolerates drive-cabinet ambient temperatures. The PQFP-208 gull-wing package is robust under vibration, important for drives mounted on rotating machinery. The -3 speed grade closes timing at 50 kHz PWM with 10 ns resolution without pipelining tricks.

🖥️

ASIC Prototyping and Emulation

Designers historically used ACEX 1K FPGAs as ASIC prototypes because the LUT-based fabric maps cleanly to synthesized ASIC gate libraries. The EP1K100QI208-3's 100K usable gates fit mid-complexity ASICs such as peripheral controllers, codec glue, or custom DMA engines. JTAG-based configuration via ByteBlasterMV accelerates design iterations, while 147 user I/Os break out enough signals for logic-analyzer visibility during bring-up. The PQFP-208 package is easy to socket into prototype boards, and EPC2/EPC4 configuration devices provide fast turnaround. Quartus II synthesis flows still accept legacy ACEX designs.

📺

DSP Pre-Processing and Post-Processing Pipelines

The EAB blocks in the EP1K100QI208-3 can be configured as multipliers and small dual-port RAMs, enabling FIR filter pre/post-processing around an external fixed-point DSP. With 4,992 logic cells and dedicated carry chains, the device can implement 8-bit MAC datapaths at 50-80 MHz, suitable for sample-rate conversion, gain control, or echo-cancellation front-ends. The -3 speed bin leaves margin for pipelined multipliers running in parallel with the main DSP. Industrial temperature grade supports outdoor audio and acoustic-monitoring installations where signal conditioning is required close to the sensor.

🔧

Legacy PCI / ISA Bus Interface Bridges

The EP1K100QI208-3's 5 V-tolerant I/O banks make it ideal for legacy PCI/ISA bridges in industrial PCs and test equipment. Designers use it as a custom controller that sits between a modern processor local bus and an aging ISA or PCI peripheral stack. The 147 user I/Os multiplex 32-bit data buses plus control signals for both buses simultaneously. Industrial temperature range handles factory-floor PC enclosures without forced cooling. The PQFP-208 footprint is easy to rework on through-hole backplanes, and Quartus II legacy support preserves existing IP cores.

🔧

Test and Measurement Instrumentation Front-Ends

Test equipment such as protocol analyzers, logic-analyzer front-ends, and arbitrary waveform generators rely on FPGA-based state machines and timing generators. The EP1K100QI208-3's 147 user I/Os accept parallel data from multiple ADC lanes, while the 4,992 logic cells implement pattern generators and trigger logic. Industrial temperature range supports bench-to-field portability. The PQFP-208 package with gull-wing leads is reliable under repeated thermal cycling. The -3 speed grade enables sub-10 ns trigger resolution in mid-range logic analyzers, and EPC2 configuration supports in-system design updates via JTAG.

What is the logic cell count of EP1K100QI208-3?
The EP1K100QI208-3 contains 4,992 logic cells organized into 624 Configurable Logic Blocks (CLBs), equivalent to approximately 100,000 system gates. Each CLB integrates a 4-input look-up table and a register, supporting combinatorial and sequential logic. According to the ACEX 1K family datasheet, this gate count positions the device between mid-range glue-logic and high-density datapath roles.
How many user I/O pins does EP1K100QI208-3 have?
The EP1K100QI208-3 exposes 147 general-purpose user I/O pins plus 6 dedicated inputs, distributed around the 208-pin PQFP package. The PQFP-208 footprint gives sufficient I/O for telecom line cards, PCI bridges, and parallel datapath interfaces. According to the Altera ACEX 1K datasheet, I/O banks are powered by VCCIO with 5 V tolerance on selected pins.
Is EP1K100QI208-3 still in production?
The EP1K100QI208-3 is classified as obsolete by the manufacturer. Intel/Altera formally end-of-lifed the ACEX 1K family as customers migrated to Cyclone and MAX families. As of 2026-09-07, only limited distributor and broker stock exists; design-ins should consider Cyclone II or Cyclone III as modern equivalents.
What is the difference between speed grades -1, -2, and -3 on EP1K100?
Speed grade -3 is the fastest ACEX 1K timing bin, with the shortest pin-to-pin propagation delay (tPD) and the highest internal fMAX. Grade -2 is a mid-speed part, and grade -1 is the slowest. Higher-grade parts also command a price premium. According to the Altera datasheet, all grades are pin-compatible within the same package, so a -1 PCB can be respun with a -3 to gain performance.

As of 2026-09-07, the EP1K100QI208-3 is obsolete and no longer orderable from Altera directly. Lead times from authorized brokers range from stock (immediate) to 8-12 weeks depending on lot age. Verify date code and traceability documentation when sourcing from brokers to avoid counterfeit risk on obsolete FPGA stock.
EP1K100QI208-3 vs EP1K100FC256-3 - which is better for high-density designs?
The EP1K100QI208-3 has 147 user I/Os in a 208-pin PQFP, while the EP1K100FC256-3 has a different pinout in a 256-pin FineLine BGA with more I/O. Both share the same 4,992 logic cells. Choose the FC256-3 if you need more I/O and can reflow BGA; choose the QI208-3 if your board is already laid out for the PQFP-208 footprint.
What is the best drop-in replacement for EP1K100QI208-3?
The closest same-package drop-in replacement for EP1K100QI208-3 is the EP1K100QI208-2N, which uses the same PQFP-208 footprint and same 4,992 logic cells but at the slower -2 speed grade. Another same-package option is the EP1K100QI208-2, sharing the -2 speed bin. Both maintain pin compatibility, enabling a direct PCB swap where timing margin permits the lower fMAX.
Can EP1K100QC208-3N replace EP1K100QI208-3?
The EP1K100QC208-3N uses the same PQFP-208 footprint but is in the commercial (0 °C to +70 °C) temperature grade, whereas the QI208-3 is industrial (-40 °C to +85 °C). Pin-out is compatible. The QC208-3N can directly replace the QI208-3 only if your system operates within commercial temperature limits; otherwise use the QI208-2N industrial variant.
Where to download EP1K100QI208-3 datasheet PDF?
The EP1K100 family datasheet PDF is hosted at https://www.alldatasheet.com/datasheet-pdf/pdf/354275/ALTERA/EP1K100.html. The original Altera document covers ACEX 1K architecture, AC and DC specifications, pinout, configuration timing, and JTAG BSDL files. Download from a reputable archive because Altera's Intel-hosted URL may redirect after the acquisition.
Where to find EP1K100QI208-3 pinout?
The 208-pin PQFP pinout for EP1K100QI208-3 is documented in the ACEX 1K datasheet pin tables (bank assignments, JTAG pins, VCC/VCCIO distribution). Because ACEX 1K is obsolete, the most reliable archive is the original Altera ACEX 1K Data Sheet chapter on PQFP-208 pin-out. Third-party distributors such as Jotrin Electronics also publish pin diagrams.
What is the core voltage of EP1K100QI208-3?
The EP1K100QI208-3 core voltage (VCCINT) is 2.5 V nominal with a maximum of 2.625 V, per the Altera ACEX 1K datasheet. The I/O voltage (VCCIO) is bank-dependent and can be set to 2.5 V, 3.3 V, or 5 V on selected banks for legacy interface compatibility. Decoupling must use low-ESR ceramic capacitors placed adjacent to each VCCINT pin.
What configuration device does EP1K100QI208-3 need?
The EP1K100QI208-3 supports EPC2, EPC4, and EPC8 configuration devices in passive-serial (PS) mode, plus JTAG-based programming via the ByteBlasterMV cable. The EPC2 was the most common pairing for ACEX 1K designs. According to the datasheet, configuration time depends on bitstream size and is typically under 100 ms from a parallel EPC4.
What are the key specifications of EP1K100QI208-3 that engineers should know?
The EP1K100QI208-3 is an Altera ACEX 1K SRAM FPGA with 4,992 logic cells, 624 CLBs, approximately 100,000 system gates, 147 user I/O pins, a 208-pin PQFP package, 2.5 V core supply, and industrial -40 °C to +85 °C temperature range. It supports JTAG (IEEE 1149.1) boundary-scan, EPC2/EPC4 serial configuration, and EAB-based embedded memory blocks. Speed grade -3 offers the fastest timing bin.
What is the best Cyclone equivalent for EP1K100QI208-3?
The closest modern Intel (formerly Altera) equivalent to the EP1K100QI208-3 is the Cyclone II EP2C35F672C7 in F672 BGA, with about 33 K logic elements and 475 user I/Os. However, it is not pin-compatible. If the goal is to reuse the PQFP-208 footprint, consider the EP1K100QI208-2N same-family variant for the lowest-risk direct swap.

Guía de selección

Choose the EP1K100QI208-3 when you need a high-density SRAM FPGA in a through-hole-friendly PQFP-208 package with industrial temperature rating and the fastest -3 speed bin for timing-critical glue logic. Choose the EP1K100QI208-2N as a same-footprint drop-in if your timing margin tolerates the slower -2 grade (typically 25-30% lower fMAX but materially cheaper). Choose the EP1K100QC208-3N when the design runs in commercial temperature only and you want to leverage existing commercial-grade sockets. For all new designs in 2026+, the EP1K100QI208-3 should be considered obsolete - migrate to Cyclone II EP2C35 or Cyclone III EP3C25 with a BGA redesign.

Notas de diseño

The EP1K100QI208-3 requires a tightly regulated 2.5 V core supply (VCCINT) with a maximum of 2.625 V, plus separate VCCIO rails for each I/O bank (3.3 V typical for LVTTL, 2.5 V for SSTL). Place at least four 0.1 uF X7R ceramic decoupling capacitors adjacent to each VCCINT/VCCIO pin pair, plus bulk 47 uF tantalum or polymer capacitors on each rail. Estimated: at 100% toggle rate on all 147 I/Os at 50 MHz, dynamic current can exceed 500 mA on VCCINT alone; size the regulator with at least 30% headroom.

The PQFP-208 package has gull-wing leads on a 0.5 mm pitch. Use a 4-layer PCB with continuous power and ground planes directly under the device to provide a low-impedance return path for high-speed signals. Estimated: keep the maximum trace length from each VCCINT pin to the nearest decoupling cap under 5 mm to maintain inductance below 1 nH. Provide thermal vias under the central pad if present to dissipate the 1-2 W typical operating power.

The most common configuration failure is incorrect JTAG chain ordering when the EP1K100QI208-3 shares a scan chain with other devices. Verify TCK/TMS/TDI/TDO ordering in the Quartus II Chain Description File before production. Never apply VCCINT before the configuration device is stable, and never leave nCONFIG floating during power-up - tie it to VCC through a 10 kohm resistor with a 0.01 uF bypass capacitor to ground. Estimated: bitstream corruption during a slow VCC ramp is a leading cause of first-board bring-up failures.
