EPF6016QC240-2N Ringkasan

The Intel (Altera) EPF6016QC240-2N is a member of the FLEX 6000 family of Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), delivering 16,000 gates (1,320 logic cells/elements) and 199 user I/Os in a 240-pin Plastic Quad Flat Pack (PQFP/BQFP) package. It is built on a 0.42 µm SRAM-based CMOS process and operates from a 5V (±5%) supply, with a typical internal frequency around 125 MHz and an industrial operating temperature range of 0°C to 85°C (TJ).

What is an FPGA? An FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) is a class of programmable logic device (PLD) that allows designers to configure arbitrary digital logic through SRAM-based configuration memory. The FLEX 6000 family sits in Altera's classic CPLD/FPGA hierarchy as a low-density, 5V-tolerant option optimized for glue logic, bus interfacing, and high-volume gate-array replacement. Within the broader taxonomy, it is part of the programmable logic > programmable logic device > FPGA > SRAM-based FPGA > low-density FPGA segment.

Key features include 132 Logic Array Blocks (LABs), 199 maximum user I/Os, a FLEX 6000 Optimized Interconnect Architecture with carry and cascade chains for high-speed arithmetic and wide-input functions, and multiVolt I/O support to bridge 5V, 3.3V, and 2.5V system buses. The device uses SRAM configuration cells that must be loaded at every power-up from an external PROM or microcontroller.

The FLEX 6000 architecture implements LUT-based logic elements (LEs), each containing a 4-input look-up table, a programmable flip-flop, and dedicated carry/cascade signal paths. Carry chains accelerate counters and adders, while cascade chains implement wide-input functions such as equality comparators with minimum delay. LABs connect through FastTrack Interconnect routing, providing predictable timing for state-machine and datapath designs.

Typical applications include bus-interface bridges, peripheral glue logic, prototyping platforms, low-density DSP datapaths, industrial control logic, and legacy 5V system designs. The 240-pin PQFP footprint and 5V core supply make this part a strong candidate for upgrading older 5V gate-array or PAL-based systems to a programmable platform.

Design consideration: the EPF6016QC240-2N is pin-compatible with other EPF6016QC240 speed grades, but not with EPF6010QC240 or other FLEX 6000 family members in different packages. Because the part is SRAM-based, a configuration source (EPC1/EPC2 PROM, MCU, or flash) must be present on every design.

This page synthesizes distributor pricing, lifecycle data, drop-in same-package alternatives from the FLEX 6000 family, and practical design notes not found in the original datasheet.

Aplikasi Umum

EPF6016QC240-2N cocok untuk 6 aplikasis: Bus-Interface Bridge / Glue Logic, Legacy 5V Gate-Array Replacement, Industrial Control Logic / State Machines, Peripheral Controller / Custom I/O Expander, Datapath / DSP Pre-Processing, Prototype Platform / Design Validation.

🌐

Bus-Interface Bridge / Glue Logic

The EPF6016QC240-2N is well suited to bus-interface bridging between legacy 5V peripherals and modern processors, thanks to its 199 user I/Os and multiVolt I/O support for 5V/3.3V/2.5V standards. Placed between a 5V ISA-style bus and a 3.3V ARM host, the FPGA performs address decoding, wait-state generation, and byte-lane steering in a single device. With 1320 LEs and 132 LABs, designers can integrate address decoders, FIFOs, and handshake state machines that would otherwise require multiple 74-series logic ICs. The 5V core supply matches legacy TTL logic rails directly, eliminating level-shifters.

🏭

Legacy 5V Gate-Array Replacement

Designers migrating older 5V gate-array or PAL-based designs to a programmable platform can use the EPF6016QC240-2N to consolidate dozens of discrete logic ICs into a single 240-pin PQFP device. With 16,000 gates and 199 I/Os, the FPGA integrates address decoding, custom state machines, and peripheral glue that previously occupied a full 5V gate-array. The SRAM-based configuration allows last-minute design changes without spinning a new mask set, dramatically reducing NRE cost. The 0 °C to 85 °C industrial temperature range covers most factory-floor and instrumentation environments.

🏭

Industrial Control Logic / State Machines

The EPF6016QC240-2N's 132 LABs and carry/cascade chains make it ideal for industrial control state machines, sequencers, and counter/timer subsystems. Fast cascade chains implement wide-input equality comparators for sensor-decoding applications, while dedicated carry chains accelerate up/down counters used in motion-control feedback loops. The 199 I/Os comfortably handle multi-axis machine-control I/O, encoder inputs, and relay-driver outputs. The 5V tolerant I/Os interface directly to legacy 24V-to-5V opto-isolated industrial sensor busses without external level translation.

🧩

Peripheral Controller / Custom I/O Expander

With 199 user I/Os and 1320 logic elements, the EPF6016QC240-2N acts as a high-density peripheral controller or I/O expander, off-loading custom protocol handling from a host processor. Designers implement UART, SPI, I2C, or proprietary serial interfaces in FPGA fabric, freeing the host CPU for application code. The 240-pin PQFP footprint gives ample I/O for driving multiple parallel peripherals, keypads, or character displays. SRAM-based configuration allows field upgrades via configuration PROM swap or in-system reconfiguration from an attached microcontroller.

🖥️

Datapath / DSP Pre-Processing

The EPF6016QC240-2N handles moderate-density datapath functions such as digital filters, CRC engines, and custom arithmetic units that feed a downstream DSP or processor. The carry-chain architecture accelerates adders, subtractors, and accumulator loops at 125 MHz typical internal frequency, while LUT-based logic implements coefficient ROMs and pipeline registers. Designers can integrate a 16-bit FIR filter or a custom CRC-32 calculator in a single FLEX 6000 device without external multipliers, reducing board area and BOM cost versus discrete logic implementations.

🔧

Prototype Platform / Design Validation

Engineers use the EPF6016QC240-2N as a prototype platform for validating custom digital designs before committing to a gate-array or ASIC tape-out. The SRAM-based configuration supports rapid design iteration: program the FPGA, test on the bench, modify HDL, re-program in seconds. With 16K gates and 199 I/Os, the part accommodates realistic peripheral interfaces, custom bus protocols, and signal-conditioning logic. The PQFP package is breadboard-friendly with appropriate socket adapters, making it a strong choice for university labs and R&D prototyping workbenches.

According to GlobalSpec's datasheet entry for this MPN, the part has reached its end-of-life date and is no longer being manufactured by Intel/Altera. Remaining supply is limited to distributor and broker inventory, which is why prices for new-stock material remain elevated compared to original 1996-era pricing.
What is the difference between EPF6016QC240-2N and EPF6016QC240-2?
The EPF6016QC240-2N and EPF6016QC240-2 share the same die and 240-pin PQFP footprint, but the -2N suffix denotes a specific speed grade and screening tier rather than a functional variant. According to FLEX 6000 datasheet convention, the trailing 'N' character identifies the temperature and process screening option. Both parts drop into the same land pattern on existing PCBs.
What is the difference between EPF6016QC240-2N and EPF6016ATC144-2N?
The EPF6016QC240-2N uses a 240-pin PQFP package with 199 user I/Os, while the EPF6016ATC144-2N uses a 144-pin TQFP package with substantially fewer I/Os. Both share the same FLEX 6000 die and 5V supply, but the ATC144 has a smaller I/O count and is NOT pin-compatible with the QC240. The QC240 is the preferred replacement when migrating from a PQFP-based FLEX 6000 design.
What is the best drop-in replacement for the EPF6016QC240-2N?
The best drop-in replacement for the EPF6016QC240-2N is the EPF6016QC240-2 (no 'N' suffix), which shares the same die and 240-pin PQFP footprint. According to FLEX 6000 datasheet family documentation, all EPF6016QC240 speed grades are pin-compatible. For inventory continuity, the EPF6016QC240 and EPF6016QC240-2 are functionally interchangeable in the same socket.
What is a FLEX 6000 FPGA used for?
The FLEX 6000 family is designed for glue logic, bus-interface bridging, peripheral controllers, and high-volume gate-array replacement. The EPF6016QC240-2N with 16K gates and 199 I/Os is well suited to TTL/CMOS logic integration, address decoding, state machines, FIFO/buffer management, and legacy 5V system upgrades. It is not designed for high-speed serial transceivers, DSP blocks, or embedded processor subsystems.
What is the configuration memory of the EPF6016QC240-2N?
The EPF6016QC240-2N uses SRAM-based configuration memory that must be loaded on every power-up from an external source. According to the FLEX 6000 datasheet, typical configuration devices include EPC1, EPC2, or EPC16 configuration PROMs, or an external microcontroller/flash combination. Designers must include the configuration circuitry in their BOM or the FPGA will not operate after power-up.
Can the EPF6016QC240-2N interface with 3.3V devices?
Yes, the EPF6016QC240-2N supports multiVolt I/O on its user pins, allowing it to interface with 5V, 3.3V, and 2.5V system buses. According to the FLEX 6000 datasheet, the I/O pins can be configured for different voltage standards provided the VCCIO supply is set appropriately. This makes the part a useful bridge between legacy 5V peripherals and modern 3.3V processors.
Where can I download the EPF6016QC240-2N datasheet PDF?
The EPF6016QC240-2N datasheet PDF is available from third-party archives including the Altera Semi mirror (alterasemi.com) and GlobalSpec's datasheet directory. Engineers should reference the original Altera FLEX 6000 family datasheet (document A-FLEX6000) for full electrical specifications, AC timing, and configuration details. Intel's current product folder no longer hosts this EOL part.
What are the key specifications of the EPF6016QC240-2N that engineers should know?
The EPF6016QC240-2N delivers 16,000 gates (1,320 LEs / 132 LABs), 199 user I/Os, 5V core supply, 125 MHz typical internal frequency, multiVolt I/O support, and 0 °C to 85 °C industrial temperature range in a 240-pin PQFP package. According to the FLEX 6000 datasheet, designers should note the SRAM configuration requirement, the 0.42 µm process, and the obsolete lifecycle status when planning production builds.

Panduan Pemilihan

Choose the EPF6016QC240-2N when you need a 5V-tolerant, 16K-gate FPGA with maximum I/O density (199 pins) in a low-cost PQFP package for legacy 5V systems, bus-bridging, or glue-logic consolidation. The QC240-2N is the strongest choice for new PQFP-based designs and is pin-compatible with EPF6016QC240-2 and EPF6016QC240 for second-source flexibility. Choose EPF6016QC208-3N if your design can accept 171 I/Os in a smaller 208-PQFP footprint. Choose EPF6016BC256-3N if you need a BGA footprint for high-density SMT assembly with vibration tolerance. Choose EPF6016ATC144-2N only when board area is critical and you can live with 117 I/Os. All five parts share the same FLEX 6000 die, so HDL code is portable across the family with only pinout remapping.

Diferensiator Kunci

  • Highest I/O count in FLEX 6000 family (vsEPF6016ATC144-2N)
  • Lower-cost PQFP packaging for high-volume designs (vsEPF6016BC256-3N)
  • Pin-compatible same-package alternatives preserve PCB layout (vsEPF6016QC208-3N)

Catatan Desain

Estimated: at 125 MHz internal frequency with 80% utilization across 1320 LEs, the EPF6016QC240-2N draws approximately 200-300 mA from VCCINT (5V). Designers should budget a 5V/500 mA LDO or switching regulator and place 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling caps adjacent to every VCCINT pin (16 pins) plus bulk 10 µF tantalum on each VCCIO bank (4 banks). Inadequate decoupling causes configuration failure and intermittent I/O glitches during readback.

The 240-pin PQFP (BQFP FINE LINE) has 0.5 mm lead pitch and requires matched-length escape routing on at least 4 routing layers with 5 mil traces and 5 mil spaces. Estimated: total breakout fanout requires roughly 30 mm x 30 mm of board area with buried vias under the package body for power and ground stitching. Use JEDEC MO-108 land pattern with 0.3 mm lead-foot length; incomplete land pattern adherence is the most common cause of solder joint opens during reflow.

Because the EPF6016QC240-2N is SRAM-based, it requires external configuration from an EPC1, EPC2, or EPC16 PROM at every power-up. Without the configuration source present on the board, the device stays in reset and CONF_DONE stays low. Estimated: typical configuration time for a 16K-gate design is 50-100 ms from a parallel EPC2 PROM; designers must hold downstream logic in reset until CONF_DONE goes high. A missing pull-up on nCONFIG (10 kΩ to VCC) prevents reconfiguration after a power glitch.
