EPF6024ATC144-13 Présentation
A Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is a semiconductor integrated circuit containing an array of configurable logic blocks (CLBs/LABs), programmable interconnect, and programmable I/O cells that engineers can customize post-manufacture to implement arbitrary digital logic functions. Within the broader power-management/PLD hierarchy, FPGAs sit at the top of the programmable logic tree: PLD -> CPLD -> FPGA -> SRAM-based FPGA. The FLEX 6000 family uses a look-up-table (LUT)-based architecture with continuous FastTrack interconnect routing, distinguishing it from older PAL/GAL devices and from the non-volatile MAX series CPLDs.
Key features of the EPF6024ATC144-13 include 24,000 typical gates, 1,960 logic cells, 196 LABs, 117 maximum user I/O, in-system programmability via the serial configuration EPROM interface, 5V-tolerant I/O on a 3.3 V core, and JTAG boundary-scan support. The -13 speed grade corresponds to a pin-to-pin delay of approximately 13 ns, making the part suitable for moderately fast control logic and bus-bridge applications rather than high-speed DSP pipelines.
Architecturally, the device uses a hierarchical interconnect structure with row and column FastTrack channels that route signals between LABs. Each LAB contains 10 Logic Elements (LEs), and each LE carries a 4-input LUT, a programmable register, and a carry chain for arithmetic. Embedded array blocks (EABs) provide small memory primitives for FIFO and shallow RAM functions.
Typical applications include industrial control glue logic, telecommunications interface bridges, peripheral bus adapters (PCI, ISA, VME bridges), motor-control sequencers, legacy system modernization, and low-volume ASIC prototyping where the 144-pin LQFP footprint is already designed in. The wide package and modest gate count also make it a popular choice for educational FPGA platforms and laboratory teaching kits.
When designing with this part, ensure the configuration EPROM (EPC1, EPC2, or compatible) is correctly sized for the bitstream and that JTAG chain integrity is verified prior to in-system programming. Because the FLEX 6000 family is built on 0.42 µm SRAM cells, the bitstream is volatile - the device must be reconfigured on every power-up unless an external controller holds the part in reset until configuration completes.

Applications typiques
EPF6024ATC144-13 convient pour 6 applications: Industrial Glue Logic and Bus Bridging, Legacy Telecom Interface Adapters, Motor Control State Machines, ASIC Prototyping and Low-Volume Production, PCI / ISA / VME Bus Bridges, Educational FPGA Laboratory Kits.
Industrial Glue Logic and Bus Bridging
The EPF6024ATC144-13 fits industrial glue-logic applications because it provides 1,960 logic cells and 117 user I/Os in a 144-LQFP package that is widely accepted in legacy factory-control boards. Its SRAM-based architecture allows engineers to integrate address decoding, interrupt steering, and protocol adaptation that would otherwise require multiple 74-series TTL parts. Compared to a CPLD alternative, the EPF6024ATC144-13 offers roughly 4x the register density and supports wider bus multiplexing, but at the cost of volatile configuration. Industrial designers typically pair it with an EPC1 or EPC2 configuration EPROM so the bitstream reloads automatically on power-up; this pattern is documented in the Altera AN116 application note. The 3.3 V core with 5 V-tolerant I/O also lets the part interface directly to legacy 5 V logic without level shifters.
Recommandé
Legacy Telecom Interface Adapters
Telecom interface adapters in the early 2000s frequently used the FLEX 6000 family because the 117 I/O count maps cleanly to 8-bit and 16-bit parallel telecom buses plus framing overhead. The EPF6024ATC144-13's 142.86 MHz internal frequency is fast enough to handle TDM framing, HDLC encoding, and simple UART aggregation without external glue logic. Its 24K-gate capacity is well-matched to a single-channel framer plus supervisory state machine, which is exactly the use case Altera cited in their FLEX 6000 product brief. Because telecom boards run hot, the LQFP-144 package with copper-spreader PCB layout provides adequate thermal performance for the small core power (~0.5 W typical). The 13 ns combinational delay of the -13 grade is sufficient for 50 MHz bus work, which is the practical ceiling for legacy telecom backplanes.
Recommandé
Motor Control State Machines
Motor-control sequencers benefit from the EPF6024ATC144-13 because the 196 LABs can hold PWM generators, quadrature decoder logic, and protective shutdown state machines simultaneously. The 117 I/O easily accommodates 3-phase gate-driver enable signals, Hall-sensor inputs, fault inputs, and a host interface. The 13 ns pin-to-pin delay of the -13 grade provides deterministic PWM timing up to ~1 MHz with 8-bit resolution, which is more than enough for industrial servo and stepper applications. Engineers typically implement the current-loop in analog and the position/velocity loops in the FPGA, offloading DSP work from the main MCU. The 3.3 V core simplifies power architecture in 24V industrial bus systems when paired with a small switching regulator, and 5 V-tolerant I/O lets the FPGA directly sense 24 V signals through external resistor dividers.
Recommandé
ASIC Prototyping and Low-Volume Production
ASIC prototyping is a canonical use of mid-density SRAM FPGAs: the EPF6024ATC144-13 lets designers validate a digital block before committing to mask costs, and the 144-LQFP package is well-suited to hand-rework on prototype boards. The 24,000-gate capacity matches a typical ASIC block such as a peripheral controller, USB 1.1 device core, or display timing generator. Quartus II supports the FLEX 6000 family with full synthesis and place-and-route, including the legacy MAX+PLUS II flow for compatibility with older IP cores. Engineers often pair the EPF6024ATC144-13 with an external SSRAM or SDRAM for data buffering, exploiting the 117 I/O to expose the full memory bus. Low-volume production runs of 100-1000 units benefit because no NRE mask charges apply and the design can be revised in software.
Recommandé
PCI / ISA / VME Bus Bridges
Bus-bridge applications are a sweet spot for the EPF6024ATC144-13 because the device provides 117 I/O - more than enough for a 32-bit data bus plus address and control signals on PCI, ISA, or VME. The 196 LABs can implement the bus arbiter, address decoder, and interrupt controller in a single chip, eliminating a handful of 74-series glue parts. The 13 ns combinational delay of the -13 grade is compatible with 33 MHz PCI timing closure, which is the practical upper limit for legacy industrial PCs. The 5 V-tolerant I/O on a 3.3 V core is especially useful for PCI designs that mix 3.3 V and 5 V signaling; this saves a level-shifter IC. Engineers should ensure the JTAG chain integrity is verified before configuring the bridge, because a corrupted bitstream silently disables bus access.
Recommandé
Educational FPGA Laboratory Kits
Educational FPGA lab kits frequently adopt the EPF6024ATC144-13 because it is a real industry part with enough capacity for meaningful projects (UART, VGA timing, simple CPU cores) yet remains within the budget of a teaching lab. The 144-LQFP package is hand-solderable with a fine-pitch station, and the 117 I/O leaves ample pins for student-facing peripherals such as 7-segment displays, pushbuttons, and breadboard headers. The 13 ns speed grade is forgiving for student timing constraints, and Quartus II Web Edition supports the FLEX 6000 family for free. Combined with the EPC1 configuration EPROM, the part boots automatically on power-up without requiring the host PC to be connected, simplifying lab logistics.

Notes de conception
Estimated: at 3.3 V core, the EPF6024ATC144-13 draws approximately 150-300 mA quiescent current depending on clock utilization and toggle rate. The VCCINT pins (22, 70) and VCCIO pins (7, 42, 96) should each be bypassed with a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed within 5 mm of the package pin, plus a 10 µF tantalum bulk capacitor on each supply rail. Designers should provision the power supply for at least 2x the typical current to handle inrush during configuration.
The 144-pin LQFP has 0.5 mm pitch and requires precise PCB layout: keep all signal traces within the 144-pad breakout area, use 8-mil traces with 8-mil spaces, and flood the inner layers with ground plane stitched to the package thermal pad. A 4-layer stackup with dedicated ground and power planes is strongly recommended. Place the EPC1/EPC2 configuration EPROM within 50 mm of the FPGA DATA0/DCLK/nCONFIG pins to avoid signal-integrity issues on the configuration bus.
Do not assume the EPF6024ATC144-13 retains configuration on power-down - it is SRAM-based and must be reloaded by an external configuration EPROM every power cycle. A common failure mode is leaving nCONFIG floating; it must be tied to VCCIO through a 10 kΩ pull-up. Also verify that JTAG chain integrity is intact before relying on in-system programming; a broken chain silently prevents configuration without raising a Quartus error. Source: Altera FLEX 6000 Handbook, configuration chapter.
Although the 144-LQFP package has moderate thermal resistance (theta_JA ≈ 35 C/W for a 4-layer JEDEC test board), the EPF6024ATC144-13 typically dissipates less than 1 W and does not require an explicit heatsink. However, when the FPGA is densely routed at high toggle rates, junction temperature can rise; the 0.42 µm CMOS process is robust but designers should still avoid placing the part directly above heat-generating components.
