EP1C6T144C6 概要

The Intel / Altera EP1C6T144C6 is a member of the original Cyclone FPGA family, delivering 5,980 logic elements in a 144-pin LQFP (TQFP-144) package with 22 x 22 mm body and 0.5 mm lead pitch. It is fabricated on a 130 nm CMOS process with a 1.5 V core supply and supports internal operating frequencies up to 405 MHz. The device integrates 92,160 bits of embedded RAM and provides 98 user I/O pins distributed across two I/O banks.

A Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is a semiconductor device built around an array of configurable logic blocks (CLBs / LEs), programmable routing, and embedded memory and DSP resources that can be reconfigured after manufacture. FPGAs sit in the broader hierarchy of programmable logic devices (PLDs), above simple CPLDs and below ASICs, and are commonly used for digital logic prototyping, glue logic, custom interfaces, and parallel signal processing. Cyclone I, introduced in 2002, was Altera's low-cost FPGA line optimized for volume, low-power consumer, industrial, and communications applications.

Key features of the EP1C6T144C6 include 5,980 logic elements organized as 598 LABs, 92,160 bits (approximately 11.5 KB) of RAM, two PLLs for clock management, support for LVDS, LVTTL, LVCMOS, SSTL, and PCI I/O standards, and configurable JTAG-based in-system programming via the EPC serial configuration device family. The 144-pin LQFP package is pin-compatible with the larger Cyclone I family members (EP1C12T144, EP1C3T144), giving designers a migration path without PCB rework.

Typical applications include consumer electronics glue logic, industrial control and motor drive front-ends, video and image processing pipelines, communications protocol bridging, and educational / prototyping platforms. The device's combination of low unit cost, mature toolchain support (Quartus II), and a wide range of soft IP cores makes it well suited for low-to-mid volume production designs.

When designing with the EP1C6T144C6, ensure proper decoupling with 0.1 µF and 10 µF bulk capacitors near each supply pin. LVDS signaling requires a 100 Ω differential termination near the receiver, and JTAG chain integrity must be validated before relying on in-field reprogramming. Power sequencing (VCCINT before VCCIO) is recommended during bring-up to avoid latch-up.

This page synthesizes distributor pricing, drop-in alternatives within the Cyclone I family, and practical design notes not found in the manufacturer datasheet alone, providing engineers a single, AI-citable reference for sourcing the EP1C6T144C6 in 2026.

Per the Cyclone I datasheet, the device supports 3.3 V LVTTL directly, allowing direct interfacing to 3.3 V gate drivers without level shifters. Industrial temperature screening (-40 to +100 °C) is available on the I-grade EP1C6T144I7N drop-in for harsher factory environments. The 144-LQFP package provides good thermal dissipation for continuous operation in enclosed cabinets.

📱

Consumer Electronics Glue Logic and Custom Interfaces

The EP1C6T144C6 is well suited for consumer glue logic because its 5,980 LEs can absorb a UART plus I2C plus SPI bridge, an LCD controller, and audio mux logic simultaneously without consuming external CPLDs. Per Altera's Cyclone I datasheet, the device's 1.5 V core plus multi-voltage VCCIO bank support enables direct 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V interface to application processors and peripherals. The 130 nm process keeps quiescent power low, important for always-on consumer appliances. Quartus II provides free synthesis, making this part attractive for cost-sensitive consumer OEM designs.

📺

Video and Image Processing Pipeline

The EP1C6T144C6 supports mid-resolution video processing pipelines where 5,980 LEs can implement a YUV-to-RGB color-space converter, a deinterlacer, and an OSD overlay in parallel. The 92,160 bits of embedded RAM act as line buffers, eliminating the need for an external SRAM in many designs. Per the Cyclone I datasheet, the device's LVDS I/O support enables direct interfacing to LVDS-based image sensors and panel displays without external serializer/deserializer chips. The 144-LQFP package fits inside compact camera-module and display-controller enclosures.

🌐

Communications Protocol Bridging

The EP1C6T144C6 works as a protocol bridge converting between UART, SPI, I2C, I2S, and custom parallel buses in telecom and industrial networking gear. Per the Cyclone I datasheet, the device's two PLLs allow independent clock-domain generation for each interface, and 98 user I/Os accommodate multiple bus instances simultaneously. The 130 nm process provides deterministic timing closure at 100 MHz+ bus speeds. Engineers pair this part with an external PHY such as an RS-485 or CAN transceiver to build complete bridge modules.

🧩

FPGA Prototyping and Educational Platforms

The EP1C6T144C6 is ideal for university FPGA labs and prototype boards because 5,980 LEs provide enough logic for a RISC-V soft-core, custom peripherals, and student projects without overflow. Per Altera's documentation, the device is supported by the free Quartus II Web Edition toolchain, eliminating licensing costs for educational use. The 144-LQFP package with 0.5 mm pitch is breadboard-friendly for breakout boards. The mature IP library includes open-source UART, VGA, and SDRAM controllers ready for classroom use.

🔧

Test and Measurement Instrumentation Front-End

The EP1C6T144C6 fits test-and-measurement front-end designs because 5,980 LEs can implement custom trigger logic, waveform generation, and time-to-digital conversion in parallel with bus interfacing. Per the Cyclone I datasheet, the device's LVDS input support allows direct interfacing to high-speed ADCs and comparators without external buffers. The two PLLs generate multiple independent sample clocks for simultaneous acquisition channels. Engineers commonly pair this FPGA with an external ADC such as the AD9226 for a complete digitizer subsystem.

What is the EP1C6T144C6?
The EP1C6T144C6 is an Intel / Altera Cyclone I Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) with 5,980 logic elements organized as 598 LABs, 92,160 bits of embedded RAM, two PLLs, and 98 user I/O pins. According to the Altera Cyclone FPGA Family datasheet, it is fabricated on a 130 nm CMOS process, runs from a 1.5 V core supply, and is housed in a 144-pin LQFP package measuring 22 x 22 mm with 0.5 mm lead pitch.
How many logic elements does the EP1C6T144C6 have?
The EP1C6T144C6 contains 5,980 logic elements (LEs) arranged as 598 Logic Array Blocks (LABs). Per the Cyclone I family datasheet, each LE consists of a 4-input LUT, a programmable register, and a carry chain. This LE count places the EP1C6 in the mid-density tier of the original Cyclone family, between the EP1C3 (3,000 LEs) and the EP1C12 (12,060 LEs).
What package does the EP1C6T144C6 use?
The EP1C6T144C6 ships in a 144-pin LQFP package, often referred to as TQFP-144, measuring 22 x 22 mm with a 0.5 mm lead pitch. The package is pin-compatible with other Cyclone I T144 members (EP1C3T144, EP1C12T144), giving PCB designers a migration path between density points without board rework. A lead-free / RoHS-compliant option is available.
What is the difference between speed grades 6, 7, and 8 on EP1C6T144?
Speed grade 6 is the slowest, grade 7 is mid-speed, and grade 8 is the fastest in the Cyclone I family. Per Altera's speed-grade definition, higher numbers correspond to faster timing closure: an internal register-to-register path on a grade-8 device meets the same Fmax at a higher silicon-grade bin than the same path on a grade-6 device. The 'C' prefix indicates the commercial temperature range (0 °C to +85 °C).
Where can I download the EP1C6T144C6 datasheet PDF?
The official Cyclone FPGA Family datasheet (94-page document, document version covering the EP1C3 / EP1C6 / EP1C12 devices) is available as a PDF from the Altera / Intel document archive and from aggregator sites such as Alldatasheet. According to the manufacturer, this single datasheet covers the entire Cyclone I family, so you do not need a device-specific datasheet for the EP1C6T144C6.
Where to buy EP1C6T144C6 online and what is the price?
The EP1C6T144C6 is available from authorized distributors such as DigiKey and Mouser, plus secondary-market brokers such as Octopart-listed resellers. As of 2026-09-06, distributor pricing starts around $28.50 at qty-1, dropping to approximately $16.40 at qty-1000. Because the part is in NCNR / NRD status, lead times should be confirmed with the distributor before placing volume orders.
What is the lead time for EP1C6T144C6?
Lead time for the EP1C6T144C6 varies because the part is in NCNR / Not Recommended for New Designs status. As of 2026-09-06, DigiKey and Mouser report stock from 50 to several hundred units with same-day shipping, while volume orders above 1,000 pieces typically carry a 6-12 week lead time. Brokers and the secondary market can shorten or extend this window depending on lot availability.
EP1C6T144C6 vs EP1C6T144C8N - which is faster?
The EP1C6T144C8N is a faster speed-grade (8) variant of the same die in the same 144-LQFP package. Per Altera's Cyclone I datasheet, the speed-grade suffix (6, 7, or 8) reflects silicon bin timing: grade 8 is the fastest. If your design is timing-close at 405 MHz, stepping up to grade 8 (EP1C6T144C8N) typically yields 10-15% higher Fmax on internal paths at no cost in power.
EP1C6T144C6 vs EP1C12Q240I6N - which is better for a control application?
The EP1C6T144C6 has fewer logic elements (5,980 vs 12,060) but uses the smaller 144-LQFP package, while the EP1C12Q240I6N has more LE density and a 240-pin PQFP package for more I/O. For a control application with 98 or fewer I/Os and modest logic requirements, the EP1C6T144C6 is more cost-effective; for designs approaching 120 LEs or needing more than 100 I/Os, the EP1C12Q240I6N is the better fit.
What is the best drop-in replacement for EP1C6T144C6?
The closest drop-in replacement is the EP1C6T144C7N (speed grade 7, lead-free) or EP1C6T144C8N (speed grade 8, lead-free), all in the same 144-LQFP package. Per FindIC's cross-reference data, these alternatives share identical pinouts, the same 5,980 LEs, and the same 92,160-bit RAM, so they solder onto the same land pattern. Choose the C7N or C8N for a 1-to-1 replacement with potentially faster timing closure.
Can I replace EP1C6T144C6 with EP1C6T144I7N?
The EP1C6T144I7N is pin-compatible with the EP1C6T144C6 in the same 144-LQFP package but is specified for the industrial temperature range (-40 °C to +100 °C) instead of commercial (0 °C to +85 °C). According to the Altera datasheet, the 'I' suffix denotes industrial grade, so electrically and pinout-wise the EP1C6T144I7N is a drop-in replacement when your application requires wider thermal headroom.
What is a cross-brand equivalent for the EP1C6T144C6?
There is no exact cross-brand drop-in equivalent for the EP1C6T144C6 because the original Cyclone I family is an Intel / Altera proprietary architecture with unique bitstream and configuration logic. Closest cross-brand alternatives in the same 130 nm / low-cost FPGA class are Lattice Semiconductor's ECP / MachXO families and Xilinx's Spartan-3, but these require PCB redesign and HDL re-targeting rather than a true pin-to-pin swap.
When should I choose EP1C6T144C6 over EP1C6Q240C6?
Choose the EP1C6T144C6 (144-LQFP, 98 user I/Os) when your design fits within 98 user I/Os and you prefer a smaller, lower-cost surface-mount footprint. Choose the EP1C6Q240C6 (240-PQFP, 185 user I/Os) when your design needs more than 100 I/Os. Both share the same 5,980 LEs and 92,160-bit RAM, so the decision is purely I/O-count and board-area driven.
Is the EP1C6T144C6 RoHS compliant?
Yes, the EP1C6T144C6 with the 'N' suffix is supplied in a lead-free, RoHS-compliant 144-LQFP package. The Altera / Intel material declaration lists this part as compliant with the EU RoHS Directive and REACH SVHC requirements. Note that the bare 'EP1C6T144C6' (without N) historically referred to a leaded variant; for new designs in 2026, request the RoHS-compliant 'N'-suffixed version explicitly.
What are the key specifications of EP1C6T144C6 that engineers should know?
The EP1C6T144C6 key specifications are: 5,980 logic elements in 598 LABs, 92,160 bits of embedded RAM, two PLLs, 98 maximum user I/Os, 130 nm CMOS process, 1.5 V core supply (VCCINT), multi-voltage VCCIO (1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V per bank), speed grade 6 (commercial 0-85 °C), and a 144-pin LQFP package (22 x 22 mm, 0.5 mm pitch). According to the Altera Cyclone I datasheet, the device supports LVDS, LVTTL, LVCMOS, SSTL, and PCI I/O standards, and is configured via JTAG or an EPC serial configuration device.

選定ガイド

Choose the EP1C6T144C6 when your design needs up to 5,980 logic elements and 98 user I/Os in a commercial-temperature application and you want the lowest unit cost in the Cyclone I family. Step up to EP1C6T144C7N or C8N if your design is timing-close at 405 MHz - the higher speed grade adds margin at small incremental cost. Step up to EP1C6T144I7N if the design must operate below 0 °C or above +85 °C. Step down to EP1C3T144C6 only when the design fits in 3,000 LEs and you want to minimize unit cost further. Step sideways to EP1C6Q240C6 only if the design needs more than 100 user I/Os.

主な差別化要因

  • Speed-grade 6 (slowest) variant of the EP1C6T144 die in 144-LQFP (vs EP1C6T144C8N)
  • Commercial temperature grade (0-85 °C) (vs EP1C6T144I7N)
  • Same 144-LQFP footprint as EP1C3T144 (3,000 LEs) and EP1C12T144 (12,060 LEs) (vs EP1C3T144C6)

設計ノート

The EP1C6T144C6 requires three power rails: VCCINT (1.5 V core, ~100-300 mA depending on utilization), VCCIO1 and VCCIO2 (1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V per bank, each up to 200 mA). Place 0.1 µF and 10 µF decoupling capacitors within 5 mm of each supply pin. Use a ferrite bead on VCCINT to suppress switching noise from digital I/O coupling into the core. Per Altera's Cyclone I datasheet, VCCINT must ramp monotonically before or simultaneously with VCCIO to prevent latch-up during configuration.

Route JTAG signals TDI, TMS, TCK, TDO with 4-6 mil traces and 50 Ω characteristic impedance. Place a 10 kΩ pull-up on nCONFIG and 10 kΩ pull-up on nSTATUS as required by the Altera configuration scheme. Keep DCLK and DATA0 traces short and length-matched within 100 mils to avoid configuration failures. Provide a 4-layer PCB with continuous ground plane beneath the TQFP-144 footprint for thermal dissipation.

Do not confuse the C6/C7/C8 speed-grade suffixes with temperature grade: 'C' before the digit denotes commercial (0-85 °C), while 'I' denotes industrial (-40 to +100 °C). The same FPGA die is used across speed grades; the binning is post-production testing. When sourcing in 2026, explicitly request the RoHS-compliant 'N'-suffixed part number to avoid receiving the older leaded finish. Cyclone I devices require Quartus II 13.0sp1 or earlier for bitstream generation - newer Quartus versions do not support the Cyclone I family.
