EP20K30ETC144-2X Présentation

The Intel (Altera) EP20K30ETC144-2X is a member of the APEX 20KE family of Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) that integrates 192 macrocells, 30,000 typical gates, and 1,200 logic elements in a 144-pin LQFP (E-type temperature, -2 speed grade) surface-mount package.

An FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) is a reprogrammable semiconductor device containing an array of configurable logic blocks (CLBs), programmable interconnects, and I/O cells, allowing engineers to implement custom digital circuits without the cost or lead time of an ASIC. The APEX 20KE family extends the original APEX 20K line with enhanced MultiCore interconnect and embedded system-on-a-programmable-chip (SOPC) support, placing it within the broader taxonomy of programmable logic devices (PLD) -> CPLD -> FPGA -> reprogrammable logic -> integrated circuit.

Key features of the EP20K30ETC144-2X include 24,576 typical logic elements / system gates, 1,200 logic cells, 92 user I/O pins, internal frequency support up to 160 MHz, and a propagation delay of approximately 1.68 ns. The device operates from a 1.8 V core supply and supports multiple I/O standards via dedicated I/O banks. Its MultiCore architecture combines Look-Up Table (LUT)-based logic with embedded array blocks (EABs) for memory and arithmetic functions.

The MultiCore architecture allows designers to allocate silicon resources between fine-grained LUT logic and coarse-grained EAB memory blocks, optimizing the device for DSP, datapath, or control-plane applications. Each EAB can be configured as RAM, ROM, or multiplier, giving the APEX 20KE flexibility that pure LUT-only FPGAs of the era lack. The 1.8 V core and 1.5 V internal supply rails are generated on-chip from the external VCCINT pin, simplifying power-tree design.

Typical applications include telecommunications line cards, industrial control and glue logic, PCI bridge interfaces, and legacy system upgrades where pin-compatible migration to newer FPGA families is not required. The 144-pin LQFP package is footprint-friendly for through-hole-replacement designs and breadboard-friendly prototypes. The device is suitable for both volume production and end-of-life replacement scenarios, given its mature APEX 20KE tool chain (Quartus II versions prior to 13.0).

When designing with the EP20K30ETC144-2X, ensure your Quartus II tool chain version supports the APEX 20KE device family and that the JTAG chain matches the 10-pin Altera header pinout. EAB-based memory blocks must be instantiated via MegaWizard Plug-Ins or LPM library calls, and unused I/O pins should be configured as tri-stated inputs with weak pull-ups to minimize in-rush current.

Applications typiques

EP20K30ETC144-2X convient pour 6 applications: Telecommunications Line Card Glue Logic, Industrial Control and Motor Drive Logic, Legacy PCI Bridge and Interface Adapter, Test and Measurement Instrumentation Front-End, End-of-Life Replacement and Long-Term Maintenance, Aerospace Ground Support and Avionics Test Bench.

🌐

Telecommunications Line Card Glue Logic

The EP20K30ETC144-2X fits telecommunications line-card glue-logic applications because its 1,200 logic elements and 92 user I/O pins provide ample capacity for bus-bridging, protocol conversion, and timing-recovery support functions. Its 160 MHz internal frequency and 1.68 ns propagation delay allow it to handle T1/E1 and lower-rate serializer/deserializer companion logic without bottlenecking the data path. Placed adjacent to a framer or PHY device, the FPGA absorbs address decoding, interrupt aggregation, and EEPROM emulation. Unlike newer families, its 144-LQFP footprint is forgiving for hand-rework and field-replaceable modules where lead-free rework stations are unavailable.

🏭

Industrial Control and Motor Drive Logic

For industrial control and motor-drive systems, the EP20K30ETC144-2X delivers the logic density (1,200 LEs) and I/O count (92 pins) needed to implement PWM generators, encoder interfaces, and safety interlocks in a single chip. Its 0 C to 85 C commercial operating range suits cabinet-mounted controllers, and the 144-LQFP package withstands industrial vibration profiles when properly staked. The 1.8 V core with separate VCCIO bank supplies allows direct interface to 3.3 V and 5 V sensor/H-bridge signals without external level shifters, reducing BOM cost and PCB area.

🖥️

Legacy PCI Bridge and Interface Adapter

The EP20K30ETC144-2X is well-matched to legacy PCI bridge and bus-adapter designs where 92 I/O pins suffice for 32-bit PCI plus side-band signals (REQ#, GNT#, INTA#, etc.). Its 160 MHz internal frequency exceeds PCI 33 MHz requirement with substantial margin, and the embedded array blocks (EABs) can be configured as FIFO buffers for transaction buffering. The 144-LQFP footprint is straightforward to route on 4-layer PCBs and keeps the design compatible with older motherboards and backplane cards that cannot accept BGA packages.

🔧

Test and Measurement Instrumentation Front-End

The EP20K30ETC144-2X serves as the digital front-end controller in legacy test-and-measurement instruments, where its 1,200 logic elements implement pattern generation, response capture, and trigger sequencing. The 92 I/O pins accommodate 16 to 32 channels of digital I/O plus SPI/I2C management bus and front-panel interface. The APEX 20KE MultiCore architecture allows DSP-style FIR filter channels to be realized in EABs, freeing LUT logic for sequencer state machines. Its 144-LQFP package is easy to inspect and rework, which is valuable in low-volume instrument production.

🛠️

End-of-Life Replacement and Long-Term Maintenance

The EP20K30ETC144-2X is a primary candidate for end-of-life replacement and long-term maintenance of installed equipment where the APEX 20KE silicon is already qualified. Equipment manufacturers and system integrators maintain a buffer stock of this 144-LQFP device for field-replaceable units in telecommunications, industrial, and aerospace ground-support systems. Its mature Quartus II tool chain (versions prior to 13.0) means existing bitstreams remain compatible without redesign, and the 144-LQFP footprint keeps spare-part logistics straightforward for service technicians.

✈️

Aerospace Ground Support and Avionics Test Bench

For aerospace ground support and avionics test benches, the EP20K30ETC144-2X provides the deterministic logic density (1,200 LEs) and 92 I/O pins needed for ARINC 429, MIL-STD-1553, and discrete signal emulation. Its 1.8 V core and multi-standard I/O banks let a single FPGA interface to legacy 5 V avionics buses and modern 3.3 V logic without external level translation. The 144-LQFP package is acceptable for ground equipment that does not require the vibration profile of flight hardware, and the APEX 20KE MultiCore EABs allow on-chip implementation of protocol timing margins.

What is the EP20K30ETC144-2X?
The EP20K30ETC144-2X is an Intel (Altera) APEX 20KE family Field Programmable Gate Array with 1,200 logic elements, 30,000 typical gates, 192 macrocells, and 92 user I/O pins, packaged in a 144-pin LQFP. According to the Altera APEX 20KE datasheet, the 'E' suffix denotes enhanced MultiCore architecture and the '-2' denotes the speed grade.
How many I/O pins does the EP20K30ETC144-2X have?
The EP20K30ETC144-2X provides 92 user I/O pins distributed across its I/O banks, per the Altera product page and DigiKey listing. I/O voltages support multiple standards (LVTTL, LVCMOS, PCI, and others) configured per pin via the Quartus II software tool chain.
Where can I buy the EP20K30ETC144-2X?
As of 2026-09-08, the EP20K30ETC144-2X is listed at distributors including DigiKey, Mouser, Octopart-participating vendors, IC-1101, Nantian, and Micro-Semiconductor.com. The part is marked obsolete, so inventory is limited to remaining stock and authorized aftermarket suppliers - lead times and minimum-order quantities may apply.
What is the price of the EP20K30ETC144-2X?
As of 2026-09-08, the EP20K30ETC144-2X lists at approximately $38.50 USD at quantity 1, with break points at $32.75 (qty 10), $27.40 (qty 100), $23.10 (qty 500), and $19.85 (qty 1000). Pricing reflects obsolete-part scarcity - request formal quotes for volume orders.
What is the lead time for the EP20K30ETC144-2X?
Because the EP20K30ETC144-2X is obsolete and no longer in production, lead times are not standardized. Distributor pages list it as 'ships today' only when stock exists; otherwise the lead time is determined by the specific distributor's remaining inventory of this 144-LQFP APEX 20KE device.
Is the EP20K30ETC144-2X in stock anywhere?
Per Octopart aggregation as of 2026-09-08, the EP20K30ETC144-2X shows limited stock at approximately 11 distributors. Micro-Semiconductor.com advertises in stock. Stock levels fluctuate daily for obsolete parts - contact the distributor directly for a current quote.
What is the difference between EP20K30ETC144-2X and EP20K30ETC144-3?
The EP20K30ETC144-2X is the -2 speed grade APEX 20KE in a 144-pin LQFP, while the EP20K30ETC144-3 is the -3 speed grade in the same package. The -3 grade has a slower speed but higher timing margin; both share the 92-I/O LQFP-144 footprint and the same 30K-gate APEX 20KE silicon, so they are pin-compatible drop-in alternatives with different Fmax.
Can the EP20K30ETC144-2X be replaced by EP20K30EQC208-3?
No. The EP20K30EQC208-3 is housed in a 208-pin PQFP package, while the EP20K30ETC144-2X uses a 144-pin LQFP. They are not pin-compatible and cannot be used as a drop-in replacement on the same PCB footprint. Consider EP20K30ETC144-3N or EP20K30ETC144-1X instead for true drop-in compatibility in the 144-LQFP package.
When should I choose the EP20K30ETC144-2X over the EP20K30ETC144-1X?
Choose the EP20K30ETC144-2X when you need a faster speed grade (approximately 160 MHz internal frequency vs the -1 grade's lower Fmax). Choose the EP20K30ETC144-1X for slower designs where timing margin is more important than throughput. Both share the identical 144-LQFP package and pinout, making them drop-in compatible.
Is the EP20K30ETC144-2X suitable for new industrial designs?
The EP20K30ETC144-2X is marked obsolete and is not recommended for new industrial designs where long-term availability matters. It remains suitable for legacy system maintenance, existing production lines, and end-of-life replacement scenarios where the APEX 20KE silicon and 144-LQFP footprint are already qualified.
What is the difference between the EP20K30ETC144-2X and the EP20K30ETC144-2N?
The EP20K30ETC144-2X and EP20K30ETC144-2N share identical silicon (30K gates, 1200 logic elements, 92 I/O), the same -2 speed grade, and the same 144-LQFP package. The 'X' suffix denotes SnPb (leaded) finish while the 'N' suffix denotes lead-free (Pb-free) finish. The N variant is the drop-in RoHS-compliant equivalent.
Where can I download the EP20K30ETC144-2X datasheet PDF?

Choose the EP20K30ETC144-2X when you need a 30K-gate APEX 20KE FPGA in a 144-LQFP package with the -2 speed grade (approximately 160 MHz internal Fmax) for telecom, industrial, or test-and-measurement glue logic. Switch to EP20K30ETC144-2N for new RoHS-compliant production runs - it is a bit-for-bit compatible drop-in alternative with the same silicon, speed grade, and pinout, only the lead finish changes. Choose EP20K30ETC144-3 or EP20K30ETC144-1X if your design has tight timing margins where slower Fmax is acceptable for lower dynamic power. Avoid the EP20K30EQC208 family - those use a 208-pin PQFP package and are NOT drop-in compatible with the 144-LQFP EP20K30ETC144-2X. For memory-heavy designs, consider EP20K30EFC144-2X which has enhanced EABs in the same 144-LQFP package.

Notes de conception

The APEX 20KE EP20K30ETC144-2X requires a clean 1.8 V core supply on VCCINT and separate VCCIO supplies per I/O bank (banks 1-4, each with its own VCCIO pin). Decoupling: place one 0.1 uF X7R ceramic capacitor within 5 mm of each VCCINT pin, plus one 10 uF bulk tantalum or ceramic capacitor near the package. Estimated: at 160 MHz internal frequency and typical 30% toggle rate, expect 200-400 mA on VCCINT - verify with Quartus II PowerPlay early in the design.

Configure unused I/O pins as tri-stated inputs with weak pull-up enabled to minimize in-rush current and prevent floating inputs from drawing quiescent supply current. JTAG pins (TDI/TDO/TMS/TCK) must be pulled to known states during configuration: TMS and TDI require 10 kohm pull-ups to VCCIO, TCK requires a 10 kohm pull-down, per Altera APEX 20KE configuration handbook. Reserve the 10-pin Altera JTAG header footprint even on production boards to allow in-system programming and boundary-scan test.

Do not mix 5 V and 3.3 V signals on the same VCCIO bank - the APEX 20KE I/O banks tolerate mixed voltages only when VCCIO matches the highest-voltage signal in the bank. Configuration: ensure nCONFIG is held low during power-up until VCCINT and VCCIO reach stable levels, then released. nSTATUS must be monitored for configuration errors. After CONF_DONE goes high, drive DCLK low and keep nCONFIG high for normal operation - failure to follow this sequence is the most common cause of configuration failure on first prototypes.
