EPF6016QI208-3N Ringkasan

The Intel EPF6016QI208-3N is a member of the FLEX 6000 family of SRAM-based Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), delivering 16,000 usable gates, 1,320 logic elements (LEs) and 171 user I/Os in a 208-pin Power Quad Flat Pack (PQFP / BFQFP) package. Built on a 0.42 µm CMOS process with a 5 V core supply, the device supports an internal operating frequency up to 125 MHz and provides 132 Logic Array Blocks (LABs) with embedded interconnect, making it suitable for glue-logic, bus-interface and state-machine consolidation in legacy and industrial designs.

An FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) is a programmable integrated circuit that combines configurable logic blocks, programmable interconnect, and I/O cells on a single die. The FLEX 6000 family specifically targets low-cost, high-volume designs as an alternative to gate arrays, allowing rapid design changes during prototyping without NRE charges. FPGAs sit in the programmable-logic hierarchy alongside CPLDs and serve as the highest-density programmable logic option for logic integration, glue logic, and pre-ASIC prototyping.

Key features include 1,320 logic elements distributed across 132 LABs, 171 user I/Os, an internal frequency up to 125 MHz, on-chip SRAM configuration memory, JTAG-based IEEE 1149.1 boundary-scan testing support, and multi-voltage I/O support. The 'QI' package designator denotes the industrial temperature grade and PQFP form factor, while the '-3' speed grade and 'N' lead-free suffix indicate lead-free / RoHS-compliant termination. The 208-pin PQFP (BFQFP) is a low-profile gull-wing surface-mount package suitable for socketed or hand-soldered designs.

Architecturally, the FLEX 6000 device uses a continuous-channel interconnect with shared fast-track lines between LABs and adjacent LAB-row fast lines. Each LAB contains 10 Logic Elements, each comprising a 4-input look-up table (LUT), a programmable register, and carry-chain logic for arithmetic functions. Configuration is loaded from an external EPROM or serial configuration device at power-up via the FLEX 6000's dedicated configuration interface.

Typical applications include legacy bus-bridge and interface adaptation in industrial controllers, communication protocol bridging (UART/SPI/I2C consolidation), pre-ASIC prototyping, ASIC prototyping, machine-control state machines, glue-logic replacement for discrete TTL, and educational logic-design platforms. The 5 V tolerance and PQFP form factor make it especially suited to retrofit projects targeting older 5 V backplanes.

When designing with this FPGA, ensure that the configuration EPROM (EPC1, EPC2, or compatible serial configuration device) is correctly sized and that JTAG chain integrity is validated. Watch for 5 V I/O-bank compatibility - the FLEX 6000 supports mixed-voltage I/O, but each bank must be powered from a single rail. Use Quartus II MAX+PLUS II legacy software for design entry, as modern Quartus Prime flows do not support the FLEX 6000 family.

Aplikasi Umum

EPF6016QI208-3N cocok untuk 6 aplikasis: Legacy Industrial Bus Bridge, ASIC Prototyping Platform, Glue Logic Consolidation, Communication Protocol Bridging, Machine Control State Machines, Educational Logic Design Platform.

🏭

Legacy Industrial Bus Bridge

The EPF6016QI208-3N's 16,000 gates and 171 user I/Os make it well-suited to legacy industrial bus-bridge applications, including ISA-to-PCI bridges and parallel-to-serial protocol converters. Its 5V-tolerant I/O banks interface directly to 5V backplanes common in factory automation, eliminating level shifters. With 132 LABs and 1,320 logic elements, the device can implement a full parallel-to-serial bridge with state-machine control and FIFO buffering on a single chip. The 208-PQFP industrial-grade package supports 0C to +85C operating environments typical of factory floors.

🧩

ASIC Prototyping Platform

The EPF6016QI208-3N is widely used as an ASIC prototyping vehicle for low-to-mid density designs. Its 0.42 µm CMOS process matches the gate density and timing characteristics of mid-1990s ASIC technology, enabling accurate pre-silicon verification. The SRAM-based configuration allows rapid design iteration without NRE charges, and the 125 MHz internal frequency supports realistic clock-domain emulation. Engineers port VHDL/Verilog RTL from the ASIC target, validate functional behavior, then migrate to the ASIC foundry once verified.

🔧

Glue Logic Consolidation

The EPF6016QI208-3N replaces dozens of discrete 74-series TTL logic chips by consolidating address decoding, bus arbitration, and chip-select generation onto a single programmable device. Its 1,320 LEs can absorb the equivalent of 30-50 discrete SSI/MSI logic packages, dramatically reducing PCB area and BOM cost. The 5V-tolerant I/Os and 208-PQFP package footprint are direct retrofits for legacy TTL designs. Configuration is one-time via serial EPROM, eliminating the need for boot code or processor intervention.

🌐

Communication Protocol Bridging

The EPF6016QI208-3N implements UART-to-SPI, SPI-to-I2C, and parallel-to-serial protocol bridges for embedded system integration. With 16K gates and 171 I/Os, multiple protocol converters can coexist on a single device with shared address decoding and interrupt logic. The industrial-grade temperature range suits outdoor telecom equipment, while the 5V I/O tolerance simplifies interface to legacy microcontrollers. The 125 MHz internal frequency easily handles standard UART rates up to 921.6 kbaud and SPI clocks up to 25 MHz.

🏭

Machine Control State Machines

The EPF6016QI208-3N serves as the central sequencer in CNC machines, conveyor controllers, and packaging equipment, implementing complex multi-state control logic that would otherwise require a microcontroller or custom state-machine IC. Its 132 LABs and 1,320 LEs provide ample capacity for stepper/servo control loops, sensor debouncing, safety interlocks, and HMI interface logic. The 171 I/Os accommodate encoder inputs, limit switches, relay drivers, and operator-panel LEDs without external muxing.

📺

Educational Logic Design Platform

The EPF6016QI208-3N is widely adopted in university digital-logic courses as a teaching vehicle for VHDL/Verilog design, FPGA configuration flows, and timing analysis. Its manageable 16K-gate capacity allows students to focus on architectural learning rather than resource management. The 208-PQFP package on development boards provides accessible probing points for laboratory exercises. Legacy MAX+PLUS II design software remains freely available, supporting a long-tail educational ecosystem that modern Quartus Prime has not displaced.

What is the usable gate count of EPF6016QI208-3N?
The EPF6016QI208-3N provides 16,000 usable gates with 1,320 logic elements distributed across 132 Logic Array Blocks (LABs), per the Altera FLEX 6000 datasheet. This positions it as a low-density member of the FLEX 6000 family, ideal for glue-logic consolidation and interface bridging rather than high-density signal processing. The 0.42 µm CMOS process supports up to 125 MHz internal frequency.
How many user I/Os does EPF6016QI208-3N have?
The EPF6016QI208-3N provides 171 user I/O pins in its 208-pin PQFP package. The 37-pin delta between package pins (208) and user I/Os (171) is reserved for power, ground, configuration, JTAG, and dedicated pins per the FLEX 6000 datasheet. This is sufficient for typical bus-bridge and interface-consolidation designs.
What is the maximum operating frequency of EPF6016QI208-3N?
The EPF6016QI208-3N supports a maximum internal operating frequency of 125 MHz in the '-3' speed grade, per the Altera FLEX 6000 family datasheet. This figure represents the LAB-to-LAB toggle rate, not a single-net maximum; actual design Fmax depends on routing depth and logic utilization. For higher throughput, consider migration to the FLEX 10K family.
What is the difference between EPF6016QI208-3N and EPF6016QI208-3?
The EPF6016QI208-3N is the lead-free / RoHS-compliant variant of the EPF6016QI208-3, identical in die, package, and electrical performance per the Altera FLEX 6000 datasheet. The 'N' suffix denotes matte-tin (Pb-free) lead finish. The two parts are drop-in compatible on the PCB footprint; the -3N is required for RoHS-compliant end products.
Is EPF6016QI208-3N suitable for new designs in 2026?
The EPF6016QI208-3N is classified as obsolete by Altera/Intel, meaning it is no longer recommended for new designs. It remains available via authorized distributors for legacy maintenance and existing production runs. For new designs targeting modern low-voltage, high-density applications, consider Cyclone IV, Cyclone V, or MAX 10 as the closest functional migration paths.
What is the drop-in replacement for EPF6016QI208-3N?
The closest drop-in replacement for EPF6016QI208-3N is the EPF6016QI208-3, which shares the same 208-PQFP footprint and die but uses leaded terminations instead of the 'N' lead-free finish. Both parts are sourced from the Altera FLEX 6000 family datasheet. For functional alternatives with more density, consider EPF6016AQC208-3N (same family, different package code variant).

The EPF6016QI208-3N is priced at approximately $18.50 USD per unit at qty-1 as of September 2026, based on Heisener distributor listings. Volume pricing drops to approximately $9.95 USD at qty-1000, reflecting the obsolete status premium. Compared to a Cyclone IV equivalent, the EPF6016QI208-3N commands a higher per-unit price due to scarcity.
EPF6016QI208-3N vs EPF6016QC208-3N - which is better?
Both the EPF6016QI208-3N and EPF6016QC208-3N belong to the FLEX 6000 family with 16,000 gates and 1,320 LEs. The 'QI' package (PQFP / BFQFP) and 'QC' package (PQFP / commercial temperature) differ primarily in package designator and operating temperature grade. Both share the same 208-pin PQFP family; verify the exact package code with the manufacturer's ordering information before PCB layout reuse.
When should I choose EPF6016QI208-3N over a CPLD?
Choose the EPF6016QI208-3N over a CPLD when your design requires more than approximately 5,000 gates of logic, register-heavy sequential designs, or bus-bridge architectures. The FLEX 6000's 1,320 LEs substantially exceed the capacity of legacy MAX 7000 CPLDs. For purely combinational + register glue logic under 2,000 gates, a MAX 7000S or MAX II CPLD remains the lower-cost option.
Is EPF6016QI208-3N the same as a 5V ASIC?
No - the EPF6016QI208-3N is a programmable FPGA, not a fixed-function ASIC. Functionally, an FPGA can replace a small to mid-density ASIC for low-volume designs, but the unit cost is higher than a mask-programmed ASIC at high volumes. The EPF6016QI208-3N is best used for prototyping, low-volume production, or designs requiring field-upgradeable logic.
What is the pinout of EPF6016QI208-3N?
The EPF6016QI208-3N uses the 208-pin PQFP (BFQFP) pinout defined by the FLEX 6000 family datasheet. Pins include 171 user I/Os, dedicated configuration pins (nCONFIG, nSTATUS, CONF_DONE, DCLK, DATA0), JTAG pins (TCK, TMS, TDI, TDO), VCCINT (5 V core), VCCIO banks (3.3 V or 5 V), and GND. Refer to the official FLEX 6000 datasheet pin tables for the exact pin-numbered mapping.
What configuration EPROM does EPF6016QI208-3N use?
The EPF6016QI208-3N configures from an Altera EPC1 (1 Mbit), EPC2 (2 Mbit), or compatible third-party serial configuration EPROM at power-up. Configuration is loaded serially via the DCLK / DATA0 pins. The 16,000-gate design typically fits in 1 Mbit of configuration memory, making the EPC1 the standard companion part per the FLEX 6000 configuration handbook.
Is EPF6016QI208-3N RoHS compliant?
Yes - the 'N' suffix in EPF6016QI208-3N denotes the lead-free, RoHS-compliant variant with matte-tin (Sn) lead finish, per the Altera ordering information. The non-'N' EPF6016QI208-3 has lead-based termination and is non-RoHS. For new designs in 2026, the -3N variant is the appropriate choice for RoHS-compliant end products.
What software supports EPF6016QI208-3N?
The EPF6016QI208-3N is supported by Altera MAX+PLUS II baseline software and Quartus II versions up to 13.0sp1. Modern Quartus Prime does not support the FLEX 6000 family. Legacy MAX+PLUS II design files (.gdf, .tdf, .vhd, .verilog) can be compiled using MAX+PLUS II 10.2 baseline, which remains the primary design flow for this obsolete device.

Panduan Pemilihan

Choose the EPF6016QI208-3N when you need a low-density, 5V-tolerant FLEX 6000 FPGA in the 208-PQFP package with industrial temperature grade (0C to +85C) and RoHS-compliant lead-free termination. This part is best suited to legacy industrial designs, glue-logic consolidation, ASIC prototyping, and 5V backplane interface bridging. For new designs in 2026, consider migration to a Cyclone IV or MAX 10 device for better tool support and longer-term availability. Among FLEX 6000 alternatives, the EPF6016QI208-3 (leaded) is the only true pin-for-pin drop-in for designs exempt from RoHS; the EPF6016QC208-3N is suitable for commercial-temperature applications; and the EPF6016AQC208-2N provides higher Fmax for timing-critical designs. All six alternatives listed share the 208-PQFP footprint, enabling PCB layout reuse across speed grades, temperature grades, and lead-finish variants.

Diferensiator Kunci

  • Industrial temperature grade with lead-free finish (vsEPF6016QC208-3N)
  • Lead-free termination for RoHS compliance (vsEPF6016QI208-3)
  • Balanced density at 16K gates (vsEPF6016AQC208-2N)

Catatan Desain

The EPF6016QI208-3N requires a stable 5.0V VCCINT supply with ±5% tolerance for the core logic. Decouple VCCINT with one 100 µF bulk capacitor plus four 0.1 µF ceramic capacitors distributed around the package perimeter. Each VCCIO bank (banks 1-8) must be powered from a single rail - mixing 5V and 3.3V on the same bank is forbidden per the FLEX 6000 datasheet. Estimated: ICCINT quiescent current ~5 mA, ICCIO per bank ~10 mA at 10 MHz toggle rate.

The 208-PQFP package has 0.5 mm pitch gull-wing leads and is suitable for 4-layer or 6-layer PCB designs. Provide a continuous ground plane directly under the device to minimize inductance in power/ground paths. Keep all 5V and 3.3V supply traces at least 2 mm wide and route configuration signals (DCLK, DATA0, nCONFIG, nSTATUS, CONF_DONE) on inner layers with ground shielding to avoid noise coupling during power-up configuration.

Do not attempt to use modern Quartus Prime (15.0+) to compile FLEX 6000 designs - support was removed after Quartus II 13.0sp1. Use Altera MAX+PLUS II baseline 10.2 or Quartus II 13.0sp1 for design entry. Verify JTAG chain integrity before configuration - a missing TCK pull-up or incorrect BSDL file will prevent successful configuration. Do not exceed 25 MHz on the DCLK pin during passive serial configuration, as this violates the FLEX 6000 datasheet AC specification.

Differential pair routing is not natively supported on FLEX 6000 I/O; if your design requires LVDS or similar signaling, route traces as tightly-coupled 50 ohm microstrip with matched lengths (±10 mils) and use external LVDS transceivers. Place the configuration EPROM within 6 inches of the FPGA DCLK/DATA0 pins to minimize signal degradation during configuration loading. Add a 1 kΩ pull-up to nCONFIG and a 10 kΩ pull-up to nSTATUS.
