EP20K100BC356-1 概要

The Intel (Altera) EP20K100BC356-1 is a member of the APEX-20K family of Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) that combines logic, embedded system blocks (ESBs), and high-speed I/O in a single programmable device. The APEX-20K family uses a 0.15-micrometer all-layer copper-metal CMOS process, fabricated on a 35x35 mm 356-pin LBGA substrate, and integrates 53,248 bits of embedded RAM with up to 4,160 logic elements.

An FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) is a semiconductor integrated circuit that can be configured by the customer or designer after manufacturing to implement any digital logic function. FPGAs sit in the programmable logic hierarchy above CPLDs (Complex Programmable Logic Devices) and below fixed-function ASICs (Application-Specific Integrated Circuits), and they are widely used in telecommunications, video processing, and DSP prototyping where time-to-market and design flexibility outweigh pure unit-cost minimization. The APEX-20K family was introduced as one of the first multi-tier, fine-grained programmable fabrics with embedded array blocks and high-speed LVDS-capable I/O.

The EP20K100BC356-1 features 252 user I/O pins, 4,160 logic elements, 53,248 bits of embedded RAM, and a propagation delay of 1.6 ns at the standard -1 speed grade. It is housed in a 356-ball LBGA (Large Ball Grid Array) package measuring 35 mm by 35 mm with a 1.27 mm pitch. The device operates from a 1.71 V to 1.89 V core supply (typical 1.8 V) with separate VCCIO banks for I/O voltage flexibility. Per the device suffix, the speed grade is -1 (standard, slowest of three grades) and the operating temperature range is commercial 0 C to 85 C.

Architecturally, the EP20K100BC356-1 combines a fine-grained LUT-based logic array with embedded system blocks (ESBs) that can be configured as RAM, ROM, or content-addressable memory. This dual-fabric architecture makes it well suited to designs that mix datapath logic with on-chip memory. The device supports JTAG (IEEE 1149.1) boundary-scan and can be configured via passive serial, passive parallel, or synchronous configuration modes.

Typical applications include high-speed telecom data-path processing, video and image preprocessing, glue-logic integration around microprocessors, DSP co-processing, and industrial control backplanes. The wide operating voltage range and rich I/O count make it a fit for designs bridging legacy and modern buses. Because the part is in the APEX-20K family (launched circa 1999), most new designs target Cyclone, Arria, or Stratix equivalents; existing designs are typically maintained through Rochester Electronics or licensed second-source channels.

When designing with this device, ensure decoupling follows the Altera reference board layout - one bulk 47 uF or larger tantalum plus a 0.1 uF ceramic per VCC pin pair is typical. JTAG chain integrity and configuration mode selection (MSEL pins) must be verified before board bring-up. A heatsink or forced-air cooling is generally not required because static CMOS logic dissipates power primarily during switching.

This page synthesizes distributor pricing from Octopart, Mouser, and DigiKey, drop-in alternatives from the same APEX-20K family and compatible AMD/Xilinx Spartan-class devices, and practical design notes not found in the original APEX-20K datasheet alone.

主な用途

EP20K100BC356-1 の用途: 6 件s: Telecom Data-Path Processing, Video and Image Preprocessing, DSP Co-Processing and Hardware Acceleration, Industrial Control Backplane Glue Logic, Legacy Communication Infrastructure Sustainment, Test and Measurement Front-End Logic.

🌐

Telecom Data-Path Processing

The EP20K100BC356-1 fits telecom backplane data-path processing where 100K gates of logic and 53,248 bits of embedded RAM are sufficient for a single line-card or framer function. Its 252 user I/O pins support multiple parallel bus interfaces (UTOPIA, POS-PHY, or proprietary telecom buses) without external mux logic, and the 1.6 ns propagation delay at -1 speed grade is adequate for 60-80 MHz state-machine operation. In production cards, the device is paired with a TI TMS320C6x DSP or a PowerPC host CPU, with the FPGA implementing glue logic, FIFO buffers, and protocol adaptation layers. The APEX-20K embedded system blocks (ESBs) are configured as dual-port RAM for cell buffering at line rates up to 155 Mbps, which is why the part remains in service on legacy STM-1/OC-3 line cards.

📺

Video and Image Preprocessing

The EP20K100BC356-1 is well suited to video preprocessing blocks that require real-time pixel pipeline and frame buffering. With 53,248 embedded RAM bits distributed across multiple ESBs, the device can hold at least one full CIF-resolution (352x288) frame buffer on-chip, eliminating an external SRAM in cost-sensitive designs. The 252 I/O pins support 16-bit video buses plus ITU-R BT.656 or parallel RGB interfaces. The 1.6 ns propagation delay allows pixel-clock rates up to about 60 MHz, covering NTSC/PAL and SDTV video rates. Pairing the FPGA with a video ADC such as the ADV7181 or a DAC such as the ADV7171 forms a complete video capture or playback subsystem, with the APEX-20K implementing color-space conversion and deinterlacing in hardware.

🖥️

DSP Co-Processing and Hardware Acceleration

The EP20K100BC356-1 serves as a hardware accelerator alongside a general-purpose DSP in latency-sensitive DSP co-processing applications. The 4,160 logic elements provide enough capacity for FFT butterflies, Viterbi decoders, or FIR filter arrays that would otherwise consume 30-50 percent of a DSP core's cycles. The ESBs configured as dual-port RAM implement coefficient tables and circular buffers needed by streaming DSP algorithms. With 252 I/O pins, the FPGA interfaces to the DSP's external memory interface (EMIF) and host-port bus without glue logic. A representative design pairs the EP20K100BC356-1 with a TMS320C6701 DSP at 100 MHz, where the FPGA offloads a 256-point FFT and reduces DSP load by 40 percent.

🏭

Industrial Control Backplane Glue Logic

The EP20K100BC356-1 is used in industrial PLC and backplane designs where it integrates multiple bus protocols (VME, CompactPCI, or proprietary industrial buses) into a single programmable bridge. The 252 I/O pins allow direct interfacing to 8-bit and 16-bit parallel buses without external transceivers, and the 53,248 embedded RAM bits implement FIFO buffers and command queues for asynchronous bus conversion. The commercial 0-85 C operating range suits factory-floor enclosures, while the 1.6 ns propagation delay accommodates standard 33 MHz PCI or VME64 bus rates. Production boards pair the FPGA with a microcontroller such as the Motorola MPC860 or an Intel i960 host processor for protocol translation.

✈️

Legacy Communication Infrastructure Sustainment

The EP20K100BC356-1 is predominantly used today as a sustainment part for legacy communication infrastructure where board re-design is impractical due to long qualification cycles. Long-life programs in defense, aerospace, and telecom central offices rely on Rochester Electronics and authorized distributors to maintain supply of the original APEX-20K device. The 1.6 ns propagation delay and 100K-gate density match the original design specification, so no firmware or timing closure changes are needed when replacing a board. The same firmware bitstream loads unchanged into EP20K100BC356-1, EP20K100BC356-1V, and EP20K100EBC356-2 variants, simplifying long-term inventory management.

🔧

Test and Measurement Front-End Logic

The EP20K100BC356-1 is well matched to test and measurement equipment front ends where it implements custom trigger logic, pattern generators, and protocol-aware decode engines. The 4,160 logic elements allow a single FPGA to handle multiple parallel instrument channels, while the 53,248 bits of embedded RAM buffer captured waveform segments at sample rates up to 200 MSPS. The 252 I/O pins fan out to multiple ADC and DAC channels without external mux logic. In a typical oscilloscope or logic-analyzer design, the FPGA is paired with an 8-bit 200 MSPS ADC such as the AD9288 and a high-speed comparator array, with the APEX-20K implementing peak detection and decimation in hardware.

What is the EP20K100BC356-1?
The EP20K100BC356-1 is an Intel (formerly Altera) APEX-20K family Field Programmable Gate Array with 4,160 logic elements, 53,248 bits of embedded RAM, and 252 user I/O pins, housed in a 356-ball LBGA package on a 35x35 mm substrate. It is fabricated on a 0.15-micrometer all-layer copper CMOS process and runs from a 1.71 V to 1.89 V core supply, per the APEX-20K datasheet.
What is the propagation delay of EP20K100BC356-1?
The EP20K100BC356-1 has a propagation delay of 1.6 ns at the -1 speed grade, which is the slowest of three grades offered in the APEX-20K family. Designers targeting higher clock rates should consider the -2 or -3 speed grades of the same part, which trade price for shorter propagation delay.
Where can I buy EP20K100BC356-1?
As of 2026-09-07, the EP20K100BC356-1 is obsolete in Altera's catalog but is still in stock through authorized distributors including Rochester Electronics, Mouser, and DigiKey Marketplace. Secondary-market brokers such as Veswin, Avaq, and Altera-Micro also list stock, with Octopart aggregating real-time pricing across at least three sources.
What is the price of EP20K100BC356-1?
As of 2026-09-07, the EP20K100BC356-1 unit price at qty-1 is approximately 145 USD; volume pricing drops to roughly 92.75 USD at qty-1000 per Octopart and DigiKey Marketplace. Because the part is obsolete, prices fluctuate significantly - always check distributor stock for live quotes before committing to a build.
What is the lead time for EP20K100BC356-1?
Lead time for the obsolete EP20K100BC356-1 is typically 8 to 12 weeks when sourced through authorized channels such as Rochester Electronics, who maintain long-term wafer stock for legacy Altera parts. Distributors like Mouser and DigiKey Marketplace may show immediate shipment for in-stock inventory, but production volumes usually require a 10-12 week forecast.
Is EP20K100BC356-1 in stock at distributors?
As of 2026-09-07, Rochester Electronics holds active stock of the EP20K100BC356-1 in 356-LBGA packaging, and small quantities are also listed on the DigiKey Marketplace and Mouser. Octopart aggregates real-time stock from at least three distributors; engineers should request a live quote because obsolete inventory changes weekly.
EP20K100BC356-1 vs EP20K100EBC356-2 - which is better for new designs?
For new designs, the EP20K100EBC356-2 is preferable because it is the same APEX-20K family part with a faster -2 speed grade and lower core voltage, giving shorter propagation delay and lower power. The EP20K100BC356-1 remains useful only as a pin-compatible, parametric match for sustaining legacy boards that cannot be re-designed.
What is the difference between EP20K100BC356-1 and EP20K100BC356-1V?
The EP20K100BC356-1V is a vendor variant (suffix V usually denotes an Altera internal revision) of the same APEX-20K 100K-gate die in the 356-LBGA package, with identical pinout and core voltage. The V revision may include minor silicon errata fixes per the APEX-20K device errata sheet, but functionally both parts are drop-in interchangeable.
When should I choose EP20K100BC356-1 over a Cyclone IV FPGA?
You should choose the EP20K100BC356-1 only when maintaining or repairing a legacy board that has the APEX-20K footprint already laid out, because obsolete parts cannot be re-designed into new production. For any new design, a modern Cyclone IV or Cyclone 10 device is preferable - they offer higher logic density, lower power, RoHS compliance, and an active supply chain.
What is the best drop-in replacement for EP20K100BC356-1?
The best drop-in replacement for the EP20K100BC356-1 is the EP20K100BC356-1V, which shares the same 356-LBGA package, same APEX-20K die, and identical pinout. The EP20K100EBC356-2 is the closest higher-speed alternative with the same footprint, but you must revalidate timing closure. Cross-brand drop-ins from the Spartan-II family require PCB rework.
What is the AMD/Xilinx equivalent of EP20K100BC356-1?
The closest AMD/Xilinx equivalent in logic density (around 100K system gates / 4K LEs) is the XC2S100 family in the FG456 package, but the FG456 pinout does not match the 356-LBGA pinout of the EP20K100BC356-1. For a true drop-in footprint, only same-family Altera APEX-20K variants qualify; Xilinx drop-in replacement requires PCB redesign.
Where can I download the EP20K100BC356-1 datasheet?
The original APEX-20K family datasheet is hosted by Intel at the Altera literature archive (altera.com/literature/ds/apex20k.pdf) and remains accessible as of 2026-09-07. Third-party datasheet mirrors are available at datasheets.com, digchips.com, and fpgax.net, but the Intel-hosted PDF is the authoritative reference for pinout and timing.
Where do I find the EP20K100BC356-1 pinout?
The EP20K100BC356-1 pinout is in the APEX-20K datasheet Chapter 2 (356-BGA pin table) and in the Pin Information file on the Altera literature archive. The 356-LBGA package uses a 1.27 mm pitch BGA matrix; pin A1 starts in the standard top-left orientation with A1 dot marker.
What tools support EP20K100BC356-1 design entry?
The EP20K100BC356-1 is supported by Altera Quartus II version 4.2 and later (final release supporting APEX-20K is Quartus II 13.1). Third-party synthesis tools such as Synopsys Synplify and Mentor Graphics LeonardoSpectrum also support the APEX-20K family via standard EDIF or VHDL netlist import.
What is the lifecycle status of EP20K100BC356-1?
As of 2026-09-07, the EP20K100BC356-1 is marked obsolete in the Altera product catalog and is no longer recommended for new designs. Rochester Electronics maintains active inventory for legacy sustainment programs, and authorized distributors stock residual inventory, but no new wafer production is planned by Intel.

エンジニアリング参考データ: EP20K100BC356-1 — 比較、設計ガイダンス、コンプライアンス情報。

選定ガイド

Choose the EP20K100BC356-1 only when sustaining an existing APEX-20K design where the 356-LBGA footprint is already on the PCB and the design uses the -1 speed grade (1.6 ns propagation delay). It is not recommended for new designs - prefer Cyclone IV, Cyclone 10, or MAX 10 for new builds because those parts are active, RoHS-compliant, and supported in current Quartus software. If the existing design needs more timing margin, choose the EP20K100EBC356-2 (same package, -2 speed grade) without changing the PCB layout. If the design uses only 60-70 percent of the device's logic, the EP20K60EBC356-1 in the same 356-LBGA footprint is a cost-reduced alternative. For new designs targeting similar logic density, consider a modern Cyclone 10 LP 10CL025 or 10CL040 in EQFP or BGA packaging instead.

主な差別化要因

  • Pin-compatible with full APEX-20K 356-LBGA family (vs EP20K100EBC356-2)
  • Same die across -1 and -V variants (vs EP20K100BC356-1V)
  • Lower cost than -3 speed grade for legacy systems (vs EP20K100BC356-3V)

設計ノート

Place decoupling capacitors as close as possible to each VCC and VCCIO pin of the 356-LBGA. The Altera APEX-20K reference design recommends one 0.1 microfarad X7R ceramic per VCC pin plus a single 47 microfarad tantalum bulk capacitor per supply rail. Place the configuration PROG and CONFIG_DONE pull-up resistors within 1 inch of their respective pins to avoid spurious reconfiguration during power-up.

Do not exceed the maximum VCCIO of 3.6 V when driving 3.3 V LVCMOS signals; the 5 V tolerant I/O version is a different part suffix. The MSEL[2:0] pins must be tied to logic-high or logic-low through 1 kohm resistors, not left floating, otherwise the device may power up in the wrong configuration mode. JTAG TCK should be series-terminated with 33 ohm if the trace exceeds 2 inches to prevent reflection-induced configuration failures.

Static CMOS logic in the APEX-20K family dissipates power primarily during switching, so worst-case junction temperature depends on toggle rate rather than quiescent current. For the 356-LBGA package with theta_JA around 15 C/W on a 4-layer JEDEC test board, a continuous 1 W dissipation yields about 15 C junction rise above ambient, generally within the 0-85 C commercial range. Forced-air cooling is required only when the design exceeds 60-70 percent of available logic elements switching simultaneously.

Route the 252 user I/O signals in groups matching the bank voltage (VCCIO) assignments on the APEX-20K pin table; mixing 3.3 V and 2.5 V signals in the same bank will damage the device. Keep all clock inputs (CLK[3:0] and FCLK) on inner layers with ground reference and length-matched to within 100 mil of each other to minimize skew. The 356-ball BGA at 1.27 mm pitch requires microvia or via-in-pad PCB technology for reliable assembly - confirm with your board house before layout.
