EP1C6T144C7N - Cyclone 5980-Cell FPGA, 1.5V, 144-TQFP | Altera
MPN: EP1C6T144C7N ✓ AktifEP1C6T144C7N Ringkasan
A Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is a semiconductor device built around an array of configurable logic blocks (CLBs), programmable interconnect, and I/O cells. Unlike an ASIC, an FPGA's function is defined by a user-supplied bitstream loaded into on-chip SRAM configuration memory. The Cyclone family occupies the low-cost, high-volume segment of the FPGA hierarchy (FPGA -> programmable logic -> programmable logic device -> semiconductor) and is commonly used as a bridge between discrete logic and higher-density FPGAs such as Stratix.
Key features of the EP1C6T144C7N include 5980 logic elements, 5980 CLBs (equivalent to 1 logic array block per 10 LEs), 20 M4K RAM blocks providing 92160 bits of embedded memory, two PLLs for clock management, and LVTTL/LVCMOS/PCI I/O support with hot-socketing capability. The device supports configuration via passive serial (PS), active serial (AS), and JTAG modes, and offers low-power operation compared to earlier SRAM FPGAs. The TQFP-144 package is lead-free and RoHS compliant.
Architecturally, the EP1C6T144C7N is built on a 130 nm SRAM-based CMOS process with a Look-Up Table (LUT)-based logic fabric and a hierarchical interconnect routing architecture. Each Logic Element (LE) contains a 4-input LUT, a programmable register, and carry chain logic for arithmetic functions. The M4K memory blocks can be configured as RAM, ROM, or FIFO and support true dual-port operation, enabling efficient data buffering in DSP and communications pipelines.
Typical applications include digital signal processing front-ends, industrial control and motor control logic, telecommunications interface bridges, video processing pipelines, prototype ASIC emulation, and embedded coprocessors in microcontroller-plus-FPGA designs. The combination of moderate logic density, abundant I/O, and low unit cost also makes it attractive for educational platforms and low-volume production.
When designing with the EP1C6T144C7N, ensure clean 1.5V core and 3.3V I/O power rail decoupling, with multiple bulk and high-frequency ceramic capacitors placed close to the package pins. Use the Altera Quartus II design suite for synthesis, place-and-route, and bitstream generation. Verify JTAG chain integrity before attempting configuration and observe the device's configuration setup and hold timing for the chosen mode.

Aplikasi Umum
EP1C6T144C7N cocok untuk 6 aplikasis: Industrial Motor Control, Video Processing Pipelines, Telecommunications Interface Bridges, ASIC Emulation and Prototyping, Embedded Coprocessor for MCU Systems, Educational and Development Platforms.
Industrial Motor Control
The EP1C6T144C7N fits industrial motor-control designs that need deterministic multi-axis PWM generation, encoder feedback decoding, and CAN bus bridging in a single low-cost device. Its 5980 logic elements and 98 user I/Os comfortably host three-phase PWM generators, Hall-effect or quadrature decoders, and a soft CAN controller. The 144-TQFP package's 0.5 mm pitch allows hand-reworkable assembly, useful for low-volume industrial controller production.
Direkomendasikan
Video Processing Pipelines
The EP1C6T144C7N serves well in cost-sensitive video pipelines such as CCTV-format conversion, frame-rate conversion, and on-screen-display overlay. Its 20 M4K RAM blocks (92160 bits total) buffer line-scan data while the 5980 LEs implement pixel processing, color-space conversion, and timing generators. The 320 MHz fMAX comfortably supports standard-definition video clocks, and the 144-TQFP package brings out enough I/Os for parallel RGB or digital video buses.
Direkomendasikan
Telecommunications Interface Bridges
The EP1C6T144C7N bridges legacy telecommunications interfaces (T1/E1, parallel PCM, UART multiplexing) into modern packet backplanes. Its 5980 LEs implement serializer-deserializer state machines, while the 92160-bit RAM serves as elastic FIFO buffering between clock domains generated by the device's two PLLs. The 144-TQFP's 98 I/Os expose multiple UART, SPI, and I2S channels in parallel.
Direkomendasikan
ASIC Emulation and Prototyping
The EP1C6T144C7N is widely used to prototype and emulate ASIC RTL before tape-out. Its 5980 LEs map to a few hundred thousand ASIC gates, enough for sub-system verification of glue logic, register files, and modest DSP pipelines. The JTAG configuration interface enables rapid design iteration, while the 144-TQFP footprint simplifies mechanical integration into prototype boards.
Direkomendasikan
Embedded Coprocessor for MCU Systems
The EP1C6T144C7N functions as a programmable coprocessor attached to a microcontroller host via SPI, parallel bus, or UART. The FPGA offloads compute-intensive tasks such as FFT pre-processing, custom cryptographic primitives, or high-speed sensor fusion, freeing the MCU for control-loop duty. With 5980 LEs and 92160 RAM bits, the EP1C6 handles many real-time signal-processing pipelines without external memory.
Direkomendasikan
Educational and Development Platforms
The EP1C6T144C7N is a popular FPGA for university digital-logic labs and hobbyist development boards because of its manageable 5980-LE size, affordable unit cost, and compatibility with the Altera Quartus II toolchain (free version supports Cyclone I). The 144-TQFP package's hand-solderable 0.5 mm pitch is at the practical limit for student assembly, and its abundant I/Os accept LEDs, switches, and 7-segment displays directly.

Diferensiator Kunci
- Pin-compatible faster speed grade (vsEP1C6T144C8N)
- Larger logic density vs EP1C3 in same package (vsEP1C3T144C8N)
- Mature, widely available Cyclone I silicon (vsEP1C12F324C6N)
Catatan Desain
Estimated: at 100% resource utilization (5980 LEs, 20 M4K blocks, all 98 I/Os toggling at 100 MHz), the EP1C6T144C7N draws roughly 300-500 mA from VCCINT and 100-200 mA from VCCIO. Place 100 uF bulk + 0.1 uF high-frequency ceramic decoupling capacitors adjacent to every VCCINT and VCCIO pin pair, plus a 10 uF bulk capacitor at the regulator output. The Cyclone Device Handbook's powerplay estimator tool provides device-specific numbers for your design before committing to a regulator.
Route the dedicated clock input pins (CLK[0..3] on the EP1C6T144) as 50-ohm controlled-impedance traces, length-matched within 100 mils if used for a DDR-style or source-synchronous interface. Keep JTAG chain signals (TCK, TMS, TDI, TDO) away from fast switching I/O to avoid configuration-mode interference. The 0.5 mm pitch TQFP package requires 4-mil trace-and-space design rules; plan escape routing accordingly.
Do not power the EP1C6T144C7N with VCCIO=3.3V while VCCINT=1.5V out of sequence during hot-plug events - always ramp VCCINT before or simultaneously with VCCIO. Always issue a CONFIG_DONE acknowledge check after configuration; a missing CONFIG_DONE signal is the most common cause of 'blank' Cyclone I designs. Verify the bitstream was generated for the correct device ID (EP1C6) and package (T144) in Quartus II - bitstreams targeting a different package or family member will not configure correctly.
