EP1K50TC144-3 Ringkasan

The Intel (formerly Altera) EP1K50TC144-3 is a 50,000-gate ACEX-1K family Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) housed in a 144-pin TQFP (TQFP-144) surface-mount package. It integrates 2,880 logic cells, 40,960 system gates, 49,152 bits of embedded RAM, 360 LABs/CLBs, and 102 user I/Os, with a maximum operating frequency of 166.67 MHz at 2.5 V core supply. The device is fabricated on a 0.18 μm CMOS process with a 2.5 V core, making it a low-cost, system-on-a-programmable-chip (SOPC) platform for high-volume designs.

A Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is a type of programmable logic device (PLD) that combines configurable logic blocks (LABs/CLBs), programmable interconnect, and I/O cells on a single die. FPGAs sit within the broader taxonomy of programmable logic devices (PLD) -> logic integrated circuits (logic IC) -> integrated circuits (IC) -> semiconductors. They enable parallel hardware execution, hardware-accelerated DSP, and rapid design iteration compared with fixed ASICs or microcontrollers. The ACEX-1K family specifically targets cost-sensitive, high-volume applications that previously required gate-array ASICs.

Key features of the EP1K50TC144-3 include a -3 speed grade, 360 LABs, 2,880 logic elements, 49,152 bits of embedded dual-port RAM, 102 maximum user I/Os, JTAG-based in-system programmability via IEEE 1149.1 boundary-scan, MultiVolt I/O supporting 2.5 V/3.3 V/5.0 V mixed-voltage interfacing, and a low-power 2.5 V core. The TQFP-144 package has a low-profile gull-wing lead format compatible with conventional SMT assembly lines.

Architecturally, the EP1K50TC144-3 uses a Look-Up Table (LUT)-based logic fabric backed by an Embedded Array Block (EAB) structure. Each EAB provides up to 4,096 bits of dual-port RAM, ROM, or specialized megafunctions such as multipliers, FIFOs, and CAM blocks. This combination delivers deterministic timing, low skew, and efficient memory utilization without external SRAM.

Typical applications include glue logic and bus interfacing in industrial controllers, low-cost DSP front-ends, communications protocol bridges (UART, SPI, I2C, parallel interfaces), legacy ASIC replacement designs, education platforms, prototyping for ASIC emulation, and small-volume production runs where mask charges are not amortizable. The wide MultiVolt I/O range makes the EP1K50TC144-3 particularly attractive when bridging 5 V MCUs to 3.3 V peripherals.

When designing with this device, note that the -3 speed grade requires careful timing closure at the upper operating frequency limit of 166.67 MHz. Use Altera's legacy MAX+PLUS II or Quartus II design software for synthesis, fitting, place-and-route, and programming file generation. The 144-TQFP package has limited thermal dissipation; consult the device handbook for thermal design guidelines if operating at industrial temperature extremes.
