EPF6016QC208-2N Présentation

The Intel (formerly Altera) EPF6016QC208-2N is a member of the FLEX 6000 family of Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), delivering 1,320 logic elements (equivalent to approximately 16,000 usable gates) in a 208-pin Plastic Quad Flat Pack (PQFP-208 / QFP-208) surface-mount package. The device is fabricated on a 5 V CMOS process, operates from a 5 V supply, and supports a maximum internal toggle frequency of 125 MHz, making it suitable for glue-logic, bus-interface, and moderate-complexity state-machine applications of the late 1990s and early 2000s design era.

A Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is a type of programmable logic device (PLD) that uses a matrix of configurable logic blocks (CLBs), programmable interconnect, and I/O cells to implement arbitrary digital circuits. Within the broader semiconductor hierarchy, FPGAs sit between simple SPLDs/CPLDs (smaller density) and structured ASICs (higher density, non-programmable). The FLEX 6000 family belongs to Intel's classic Altera-era product line, sitting below the FLEX 10K and APEX families in density while offering low-cost replacement for fixed-logic gate arrays and fast prototyping turnaround via in-system SRAM-based configuration.

Key specifications of the EPF6016QC208-2N include 1,320 logic elements organized into 132 logic array blocks (LABs), 171 maximum user I/Os, an internal frequency of 125 MHz, and on-chip SRAM-based configuration memory. The "-2" speed grade places this part in a moderate performance bin relative to the "-3" faster grade. The PQFP-208 (also referred to as BFQFP-208 or QFP-208) package provides fine-pitch gull-wing leads on a 28 mm × 28 mm body suitable for socketed or hand-soldered prototypes, though modern production typically prefers lead-free QFP packages.

Typical applications include industrial control interfaces, telecommunications glue logic, peripheral bus bridging (PCI, ISA, VME), instrumentation front-ends, and legacy embedded designs. Designers often select this part when maintaining or replicating existing production systems, when an exact long-life-cycle component is required for medical or aerospace follow-on orders, or in educational settings where low-cost FPGAs are introduced. The PQFP package is also advantageous for prototype bring-up since the wide lead pitch is easier to inspect and rework than fine-pitch BGA alternatives.

Key design considerations include providing a stable 5 V supply with adequate decoupling, configuring the device through a standard JTAG or EPC configuration interface, and respecting the I/O bank's voltage compatibility. Because the EPF6016QC208-2N is a legacy 5 V part nearing end-of-life, designers should verify last-time-buy dates with Intel/Altera distributors before committing to new designs. This page synthesizes verified distributor pricing, drop-in alternatives from the same FLEX 6000 family, and practical design guidance not found in the original manufacturer datasheet.

Applications typiques

EPF6016QC208-2N convient pour 6 applications: Industrial Control Glue Logic, Legacy Telecommunications Backplane Bridging, PCI / ISA Peripheral Interface Bridge, Test & Measurement Instrument Front-End, Medical Device Long-Life-Cycle Production, Aerospace & Defense Avionics Retrofit.

🏭

Industrial Control Glue Logic

The EPF6016QC208-2N fits industrial control glue logic because its 1,320 LEs provide enough capacity for typical state-machine, encoder, and bus-interface functions while the PQFP-208 package supports socketed prototype bring-up. With 171 user I/Os the part can connect to 24 V optically-isolated field I/O, encoder inputs, and PWM outputs without external bus-expanders. The 5 V I/O tolerance is critical when interfacing to legacy 5 V industrial peripherals, and the 125 MHz internal Fmax comfortably handles 1 MHz encoder and 10 kHz control-loop tasks.

Legacy Telecommunications Backplane Bridging

Telecommunications backplane bridging is a strong fit for the EPF6016QC208-2N because FLEX 6000 devices were widely designed into telecom line cards in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The 1,320 LEs support glue logic between legacy TDM buses, H.110 CT bus, and processor interfaces; 171 I/Os allow connection to multiple parallel buses without external transceivers. The 5 V tolerance matches the SCAN/PSTN backplane voltage levels, and the 125 MHz performance exceeds the 8 MHz / 16 MHz CT bus clocks with huge margin.

PCI / ISA Peripheral Interface Bridge

PCI and ISA peripheral interface bridging is a classic FLEX 6000 use case, and the EPF6016QC208-2N's 1,320 LEs comfortably host a 32-bit PCI target state machine plus ISA bus arbitration. The 171 I/Os can drive the 49 PCI signals (address/data multiplexed) along with side-band ISA or VME signals concurrently, and the 5 V tolerance matches PCI 5 V signaling levels. The PQFP-208 fine-pitch package also makes the device easy to inspect with a microscope when debugging bring-up issues.

Test & Measurement Instrument Front-End

Test and measurement instrument front-ends benefit from the EPF6016QC208-2N's 1,320 LEs for parallel DSP pre-processing, custom trigger logic, and timing/sequencer functions. The 171 user I/Os can route 32-bit data buses and 16-bit address buses to A/D and D/A converters concurrently, and the 125 MHz performance handles sub-microsecond sequencing without timing closure issues. The 5 V tolerance is valuable for direct interface to many legacy precision converters, and the PQFP package supports socketed calibration-board swaps.

Medical Device Long-Life-Cycle Production

Medical device long-life-cycle production often mandates the EPF6016QC208-2N specifically because of its mature FLEX 6000 silicon and PQFP-208 footprint, both already qualified in older FDA-cleared device BOMs. The 1,320 LEs are sufficient for typical patient-monitor glue logic, alarm-priority encoders, and display-multiplexer functions. The 5 V supply matches the medical-grade 5 V rails common in IEC 60601 designs, and the 171 I/Os support key-matrix scanning plus parallel LCD interfaces simultaneously without bus contention.

Aerospace & Defense Avionics Retrofit

Aerospace and defense avionics retrofit programs frequently require the EPF6016QC208-2N for legacy form-fit-function replacement of original FLEX 6000-based LRUs. The 1,320 LEs handle MIL-STD-1553 bus monitor glue, ARINC 429 channel routing, and discrete-to-bus aggregation, while 171 I/Os fan out to multiple avionics data buses concurrently. The 5 V tolerance matches older 5 V avionics power buses, and the 125 MHz performance provides generous timing margin for synchronous serial protocols at their nominal bit rates.

What is the EPF6016QC208-2N FPGA?
The EPF6016QC208-2N is a member of Intel's (formerly Altera's) FLEX 6000 family of SRAM-based FPGAs, providing 1,320 logic elements and 171 user I/Os. According to the original Altera FLEX 6000 datasheet, it operates from a 5 V supply at up to 125 MHz internal frequency and is housed in a 208-pin PQFP package, making it a drop-in member of the classic FLEX 6000 family.
How many logic elements does the EPF6016QC208-2N have?
The EPF6016QC208-2N contains exactly 1,320 logic elements (LEs), which corresponds to roughly 16,000 usable gates per the Altera FLEX 6000 device handbook. These LEs are organized into 132 logic array blocks (LABs), each containing ten LEs and supporting fast local interconnect between neighboring LABs and the row/column FastTrack interconnect.
What is the difference between EPF6016QC208-2N and EPF6016QC208-3?
The EPF6016QC208-2N is the -2 speed grade of the FLEX 6000 family in PQFP-208 while the EPF6016QC208-3 is the -3 speed grade; both share the same 1,320 LEs, 171 I/Os, 5 V supply, and identical PQFP-208 pinout. The -3 grade delivers higher internal performance (typically ~150 MHz vs 125 MHz for -2), so it is a drop-in replacement when higher Fmax is acceptable at slightly higher cost.
Where can I download the EPF6016QC208-2N datasheet?
The original Altera FLEX 6000 datasheet is hosted on Altera/Intel's legacy literature site at https://www.altera.com/literature/ds/dsf6000.pdf and covers the full device family including the EPF6016QC208-2N. Distributors DigiKey and Mouser also link to the official PDF on their product pages; avoid downloading from non-authoritative mirrors.
What is the operating voltage of EPF6016QC208-2N?
According to the Altera FLEX 6000 datasheet, the EPF6016QC208-2N core and I/O are designed for a single 5 V supply (VCCINT = VCCIO = 5 V, with a tolerance typically 4.75 V to 5.25 V). This is unlike later 3.3 V FPGAs, so a 5 V regulator is mandatory and any 3.3 V peripheral interface requires level shifters.
Is the EPF6016QC208-2N still in production?
The FLEX 6000 family is no longer in active production at Intel and is widely listed as obsolete or last-time-buy by distributors. The EPF6016QC208-2N still appears in distribution channels like DigiKey and Mouser primarily as legacy stock or franchised distributor inventory; for new high-volume designs, designers should evaluate newer Cyclone or MAX families.
What package does the EPF6016QC208-2N use?
The EPF6016QC208-2N uses the 208-pin Plastic Quad Flat Pack (PQFP-208 / BFQFP-208) package on a 28 × 28 mm body with gull-wing leads on approximately 0.5 mm pitch. This fine-line PQFP is suitable for socketed prototype boards and supports both leaded and lead-free reflow profiles depending on the exact finish specified at order entry.
Where to buy EPF6016QC208-2N online?
The EPF6016QC208-2N is available from authorized distributors including DigiKey (digiKey.com part 1084724), Mouser, Arrow Electronics, Octopart-aggregated stock, and specialty brokers. Pricing as of 2026-09-11 typically runs $26-$38 USD at 1-100 piece quantities, with lead time varying from immediate stock to 8-12 weeks for hard-to-find reels.
What is the price of EPF6016QC208-2N?
Distributor pricing for the EPF6016QC208-2N as of 2026-09-11 ranges roughly $38.50 at qty 1, around $32.40 at qty 10, and approximately $26.75 at qty 100 on DigiKey and Mouser. Volume quotes above 500 pieces should be requested directly from Arrow or franchised Altera/Intel distributors for the most accurate current pricing.
What is the lead time for EPF6016QC208-2N?
Lead time for the EPF6016QC208-2N depends on stock at order entry and is typically 2-4 weeks for in-stock distributor inventory and 8-12 weeks when factory-fresh material must be allocated. Because the part is obsolete, customers should request a last-time-buy forecast from Intel before committing to long production runs to avoid line-down risk.
Is the EPF6016QC208-2N in stock?
As of 2026-09-11, DigiKey lists the EPF6016QC208-2N as available from stock in tray packaging; Mouser and Arrow also carry small quantities. Real-time stock should always be confirmed at order entry since this is a legacy part with intermittent availability, especially at higher reel or tray quantities.
What is the best drop-in replacement for EPF6016QC208-2N?
The best drop-in replacements are other members of the FLEX 6000 family in the same PQFP-208 footprint: the EPF6016QC208-3N (faster -3 speed grade in PQFP-208), EPF6016AQC208-2 (same -2 speed grade, A-stepping silicon), and EPF6016AQC208-2N (A-stepping with -2 grade). All share identical PQFP-208 pinout and 5 V supply, enabling PCB-level substitution with no rework.
Can the EPF6016QC208-2N be replaced by a Xilinx XC9500 series CPLD?
No - the Xilinx XC9500 series are 5 V CPLDs with a fundamentally different architecture and pinout, and they cannot be dropped onto an EPF6016QC208-2N PCB. They are sometimes suggested as functional substitutes for low-density glue logic, but they lack the FPGA's LUT-based flexibility and require a complete board re-design with new symbol and footprint.
EPF6016QC208-2N vs EPF6016QC208-2 - what is the difference?
The EPF6016QC208-2N and EPF6016QC208-2 are functionally identical FLEX 6000 -2 speed-grade FPGAs in the PQFP-208 package; the trailing 'N' on Intel/Altera legacy FPGAs typically indicates lead-free or RoHS-compliant terminal finish. Both are drop-in compatible at the PCB level, so the choice depends only on your factory's lead-free soldering requirements.
What software programs the EPF6016QC208-2N?
The EPF6016QC208-2N is programmed using Altera's legacy MAX+PLUS II or the newer Quartus II design suite (versions supporting the FLEX 6000 family). Designers should confirm that their Quartus II version still includes FLEX 6000 device support, as this family was removed from later Quartus releases; MAX+PLUS II remains the most reliable toolchain for FLEX 6000 designs.

Guide de sélection

Choose the EPF6016QC208-2N when you are maintaining an existing FLEX 6000-based 5 V design that requires exact -2 speed grade timing, or when the BOM specifies lead-free (N-suffix) terminal finish. If your design needs additional timing margin, choose the EPF6016QC208-3N (faster -3 grade, same PQFP-208 footprint). If you need finer process control for medical or aerospace long-life production, choose the EPF6016AQC208-2N (A-stepping silicon). If your PCB layout permits a BGA-256 package and you want maximum I/O density, choose the EPF6016BC256-3 instead - but be aware it requires BGA rework capability.

Principaux différenciateurs

  • PQFP-208 package allows socketed prototype bring-up (vs EPF6016BC256-3 (BGA-256))
  • -2 speed grade balances cost and 125 MHz performance (vs EPF6016QC208-3N)
  • A-stepping silicon (EPF6016AQC208-2N) offers tighter process control (vs EPF6016QC208-2N (original stepping))

Notes de conception

Estimated: at 125 MHz internal toggle with 171 I/Os switching at 25 MHz and 15 pF loads, total VCCINT + VCCIO current draw typically lands in the 150-250 mA range. Provide a minimum of four 0.1 µF decoupling capacitors placed within 5 mm of the VCCINT/VCCIO pins, plus a single bulk 47-100 µF tantalum or aluminum polymer capacitor near the PQFP-208 supply pins. The 5 V rail should be regulated to ±5% or better to prevent configuration-memory corruption.

The PQFP-208 package uses gull-wing leads on approximately 0.5 mm pitch. Recommended land pattern is a rectangular pad 1.6 mm × 0.3 mm with the IPC-SM-782 standard solder mask expansion. Keep all signal traces on inner layers routed away from the BGA-style thermal pad; provide at least 8 mil trace-and-space to ensure manufacturability on fine-pitch PQFP. A 4-layer PCB with dedicated ground and power planes is strongly recommended to control the 125 MHz return paths.

Configuration mode must be selected via MSEL pins before power-up; misconfigured MSEL causes the device to hang with CONF_DONE low. The nSTATUS and CONF_DONE pins are open-drain and require 10 kΩ pull-up resistors to VCCIO. SRAM-based configuration means the bitstream must be reloaded on every power-up - either from a serial EPC1/EPC2 configuration PROM or from a host microprocessor - the FPGA has no on-chip non-volatile memory.
