EP1K30TC144-1N Présentation
An FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) is a semiconductor integrated circuit that can be configured by the customer or designer after manufacturing to implement arbitrary digital logic. Within the broader taxonomy, FPGAs belong to the programmable logic family, sitting alongside CPLDs and PALs. ACEX-1K is positioned by Altera as a low-cost, low-power programmable logic device family targeting glue logic, bus bridging, and moderate-density state-machine applications where a full Cyclone or Stratix device would be over-spec.
Key features include 24,576 bits of embedded RAM organized in EAB (Embedded Array Block) memory, 6 EABs, dual-port RAM support, 6 phase-locked loops (PLUs) for clock management, and built-in support for LVCMOS, LVTTL, SSTL-2, and SSTL-3 I/O standards. The device is rated for -40 °C to +85 °C (commercial/industrial) operating junction temperature and offers 100 MHz+ internal performance for typical designs.
The EP1K30TC144-1N uses a continuous, segmented routing architecture with 4-input look-up table (LUT) logic elements that include dedicated carry chains for fast arithmetic. This LUT-based fabric gives designers flexibility to implement any logic function while the embedded array blocks provide efficient on-chip memory for FIFOs, ROM, and dual-port RAM structures.
Typical applications include telecommunications interface cards, industrial control boards, low-cost prototyping platforms, PCI bridge logic, legacy system upgrades, educational digital logic labs, and consumer-electronics glue logic. The 102 available I/O pins and 1,728 LEs make it suitable for designs needing moderate logic density with low power and cost.
When designing with the EP1K30TC144-1N, ensure the Quartus II (or legacy MAX+PLUS II) design toolchain supports this mature part. JTAG programming is recommended for production; the configuration bitstream is volatile and must be loaded at every power-up from a configuration memory or a host processor.
This page synthesizes distributor pricing, drop-in alternatives from the Altera/Intel ACEX-1K family and cross-brand equivalents, JTAG configuration guidance, and practical design notes not found in a single manufacturer datasheet — useful for engineers maintaining legacy ACEX-1K designs or planning obsolescence migrations.

Applications typiques
EP1K30TC144-1N convient pour 6 applications: Legacy Telecom Interface Card Glue Logic, Industrial Control PLC Expansion Modules, PCI Bridge / Bus Protocol Converter, Digital Logic Education & Training Lab Platform, Consumer Electronics Display Controller, Medical Device Legacy Maintenance Replacement.
Legacy Telecom Interface Card Glue Logic
The EP1K30TC144-1N fits legacy telecom interface cards because its 1,728 logic elements and 24,576 bits of embedded RAM provide enough capacity to implement TDM bus multiplexers, framer glue logic, and ATM/POS segmentation engines while consuming only 2.5 V core power. The 102 user I/O pins can connect directly to UTOPIA-2 / POS-PHY-2 buses, H.110 CT bus time slots, and 8-bit TDM streams. Compared with a CPLD, the EP1K30 offers dual-port RAM via 6 EABs for hit-miss counters and lookup tables; compared with a Cyclone, it provides guaranteed long-term supply for maintenance contracts on installed equipment. JTAG boundary-scan simplifies in-system programming and field diagnostics on card-replacement events.
Recommandé
Industrial Control PLC Expansion Modules
The EP1K30TC144-1N serves industrial PLC expansion modules by implementing encoder quadrature decoding, PWM generation, and Modbus-RTU frame parsing in the 1,728 logic elements while the 24,576-bit EAB RAM stores lookup tables for linearization curves. The 144-LQFP package is hand-solderable for low-volume industrial module assembly and the 102 I/O pins can directly interface 5 V-tolerant encoders via 3.3 V LVTTL with external resistor dividers. Its 2.5 V core and 0.18 µm SRAM process provide industrial temperature margin per the ACEX-1K datasheet. JTAG allows firmware upgrades in the field without removing modules from DIN rails, a key requirement for PLC service intervals.
Recommandé
PCI Bridge / Bus Protocol Converter
The EP1K30TC144-1N suits PCI bridge and bus protocol converter designs because its 1,728 logic elements can implement 32-bit PCI target state machines, bus arbiters, and configuration-space registers, while 24,576 bits of embedded RAM serve as a small FIFO for write-posting buffers. The 102 user I/O pins comfortably accommodate 32-bit PCI data + control plus secondary bus expansion to ISA or local-bus peripherals. The 2.5 V core and 3.3 V I/O match PCI 3.3 V signaling directly without external level shifters. JTAG boundary-scan verifies PCI connector pin continuity in production test.
Recommandé
Digital Logic Education & Training Lab Platform
The EP1K30TC144-1N is well-suited to university digital logic labs because the 1,728 LEs and 102 I/O pins can host student designs ranging from 4-bit ALUs up to RISC processor cores, while the 144-LQFP package is large enough to be socketed on a breadboard-friendly breakout PCB. Quartus II 13.1 with web-edition license supports the EP1K30 for free student downloads, preserving access for institutions that standardized on ACEX-1K development boards. The 24,576 bits of embedded RAM allow students to implement dual-port RAM and FIFO primitives in coursework. JTAG programming via the Altera ByteBlasterMV cable remains documented in legacy Altera lab manuals.
Recommandé
Consumer Electronics Display Controller
The EP1K30TC144-1N handles consumer display controller tasks by implementing timing controllers (TCON), color-space converters, and low-speed LVDS receivers in 1,728 logic elements, while the 24,576-bit EAB RAM acts as a one-line frame buffer for OSD overlays. The 102 user I/O can interface parallel RGB, ITU-R BT.656, or HDMI bridge chips. The 144-LQFP is a low-cost plastic package that meets consumer-electronics cost targets. The 6 EABs provide dual-port RAM for character ROM OSD storage. JTAG in-system programmability reduces factory burn-in costs versus OTP microcontrollers.
Recommandé
Medical Device Legacy Maintenance Replacement
The EP1K30TC144-1N is critical for medical device lifetime support because Altera ACEX-1K parts have been qualified into FDA-cleared devices where re-validation cost is prohibitive. The 1,728 logic elements implement patient-monitor DSP pre-processing, ECG trigger logic, and data-acquisition sequencing. The 102 I/O can drive 16-channel analog front-end MUX and capture 12-bit ADC streams. The 144-LQFP package, 2.5 V core, and 0.18 µm SRAM process match the original 2000s-era bill-of-materials so replacement boards are electrical drop-in. JTAG allows in-field firmware updates during calibration cycles without breaking device calibration seals.

Notes de conception
Estimated: The EP1K30TC144-1N core draws approximately 20–80 mA quiescent plus dynamic current proportional to toggle rate. At 100% toggle on 100 MHz clocks across 1,728 LEs, total core current can reach 200–300 mA from the 2.5 V VCCINT rail. Place one 10 µF tantalum and three 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling capacitors adjacent to the VCCINT pins (54, 89, 128) and one 0.1 µF + 10 µF at each VCCIO pin (9, 38, 70, 95, 120, 140). The 24,576-bit EAB block can draw an additional 30 mA when both ports are active — account for this in worst-case power budget. Power sequencing: VCCINT must reach 2.5 V before VCCIO reaches 3.3 V to avoid I/O latch-up; an RC delay on nCONFIG can prevent early configuration attempts during power-up ramp.
Estimated: The 144-LQFP package has a 0.5 mm pin pitch and a 22 mm × 22 mm body, requiring 4-layer PCB routing with 0.13 mm trace/spacing to fan out 102 user I/O pins. Place a continuous ground plane on layer 2 directly under the device to provide a low-impedance return path for switching signals and to dissipate thermal energy. Use 8 mil (0.20 mm) via-in-pad for all decoupling capacitors if using high-density interconnect (HDI) construction; otherwise keep vias adjacent to pads but within 2 mm. JTAG chain routing must keep TDI/TDO/TCK/TMS traces under 50 mm to avoid signal integrity issues, and add a 4.7 kΩ pull-up on TCK and TMS per the ACEX-1K datasheet JTAG chapter.
Estimated: Three common pitfalls on ACEX-1K boards. (1) Forgetting that configuration is volatile — the EP1K30TC144-1N loses its bitstream at every power-down and requires either an EPC2/EPC4 configuration memory or a host microcontroller that streams the .sof/.pof file via Passive Serial on every boot. Designs that omit this fail silently in production. (2) Mixing I/O standards within a single bank — the EP1K30 banks are 3.3 V VCCIO but each I/O pin within a bank can be set to LVCMOS33, LVTTL33, SSTL-2, or SSTL-3; however mixing SSTL with LVCMOS in the same bank can cause signal-integrity issues at high toggle rates. (3) Quartus version incompatibility — modern Quartus Prime (20.x and later) has dropped ACEX-1K from the supported device list, so design teams must retain Quartus II 13.1 with the ACEX-1K legacy device service pack installed to recompile .bdf/.vhd files.
Informations de conformité
The 'N' suffix in EP1K30TC144-1N denotes lead-free (Pb-free) plating per Altera ordering information. RoHS, REACH, and halogen-free status were not retrievable from the verified web data sources provided — marked 'unknown' to avoid fabrication. AEC-Q100 is not applicable because ACEX-1K is a programmable logic device family, not a qualified automotive IC.
