EP20K60EFC144-1 概要

The Altera EP20K60EFC144-1 is an APEX 20KE family field-programmable gate array (FPGA) delivering approximately 60,000 typical gates (256,000 system gates max) with 93 user I/Os in a 144-ball fine-pitch BGA (FBGA) package. The -1 speed grade and commercial temperature grade (0 C to 85 C) target mainstream logic integration in telecom, networking, and DSP glue applications. The device operates at a maximum internal frequency of 160 MHz with a 1.72 ns propagation delay.

An FPGA (field-programmable gate array) is a semiconductor integrated circuit composed of an array of configurable logic blocks (CLBs), programmable interconnect, and I/O cells that engineers can reprogram in the field to implement arbitrary digital logic. FPGAs sit above ASICs and CPLDs in the programmable logic hierarchy and are widely used for parallel DSP, custom interface bridging, and pre-silicon prototyping. The APEX 20KE family specifically introduced MultiCore architecture combining look-up tables (LUTs) with embedded product-term blocks and ESBs (embedded system blocks) for memory.

Key features of the EP20K60EFC144-1 include 256 macrocells, 32,768 bits of embedded memory (2560 RAM blocks), 196 maximum user I/Os, and a CMOS process core running on 1.8 V core supply with multi-voltage I/O support. The 144-FBGA package provides a small 13 mm x 13 mm footprint suitable for high-density PCB designs. The device supports in-system programmability via JTAG and the Altera Altera Programming Unit (APU) or ByteBlaster interface.

Architecturally, the EP20K60EFC144-1 uses Altera's MultiCore structure integrating fine-grained LUTs for datapath logic with coarse-grained product-term blocks for control and state machines. The embedded system blocks (ESBs) provide dual-port RAM, ROM, and CAM (content-addressable memory) functions. The four-phase PLL (where fitted) and distributed clock network support synchronous designs up to 160 MHz internally, while LVTTL, LVCMOS, PCI, and other I/O standards are selectable per pin via software.

Typical applications include telecommunications line-card glue logic, networking datapath and packet processing, DSP coprocessor front-ends, custom peripheral bridging in embedded systems, and ASIC prototyping. The 144-FBGA footprint suits space-constrained boards where 60K-gate logic density is required.

When designing with this part, ensure your PCB can route 144 BGA balls on the chosen land pattern (typically 1.0 mm pitch). Provide clean 1.8 V core and 3.3 V/2.5 V I/O supply rails with bulk decoupling near the package. Use the Quartus II design tool (or legacy MAX+PLUS II for legacy designs) for place-and-route, and verify timing closure at the -1 speed grade against your target fMAX.

This page synthesizes distributor pricing, drop-in same-brand alternatives, application pairings, and practical design notes not found in the standalone datasheet PDF - giving procurement and design engineers a faster path from datasheet to qualified BOM.

主な用途

EP20K60EFC144-1 の用途: 6 件s: Telecommunications Line-Card Glue Logic, Networking Datapath and Packet Processing, DSP Coprocessor Front-End, Custom Peripheral Bridging in Embedded Systems, ASIC Prototyping and Pre-Silicon Validation, Industrial Control and Machine Interface.

🌐

Telecommunications Line-Card Glue Logic

The EP20K60EFC144-1's 60K gates and 93 user I/Os make it a strong fit for telecom line-card glue logic bridging framer ASICs, network processors, and serializer/deserializer (SerDes) channels. Its MultiCore architecture combines fine-grained LUTs for datapath with embedded product-term blocks for state-machine control, while 32 Kbits of embedded RAM support small FIFOs and protocol-header parsing tables. At 160 MHz internal fMAX, the device handles typical TDM/Ethernet glue functions including CRC insertion, HDLC framing, and clock-domain crossing. The 144-FBGA package at 1.0 mm pitch fits dense line-card layouts where board real estate is at a premium, and JTAG in-system programmability simplifies factory provisioning and field firmware updates.

🌐

Networking Datapath and Packet Processing

For mid-density networking datapath tasks, the EP20K60EFC144-1 delivers parallel packet-classification, header-stripping, and checksum-verification logic at wire speed. The 60K-gate fabric comfortably holds a 32-bit packet engine with classification tables in the embedded 32-Kbit RAM blocks (ESBs), while 93 I/Os connect to external PHY/MAC and TCAM coprocessors. The device's CMOS process and 1.8 V core minimize dynamic power, which matters in multi-FPGA line cards where total board power is constrained. Operating at commercial 0-85 C, the EP20K60EFC144-1 is suitable for thermally managed indoor chassis. Designers targeting higher throughput can swap to the EP20K60EFC144-2X speed grade without changing the PCB layout.

🖥️

DSP Coprocessor Front-End

The EP20K60EFC144-1 functions as a flexible DSP coprocessor front-end, handling FIR filter pre-processing, FFT windowing, and data routing before handing off to a dedicated DSP or ASIC. With 256 macrocells and embedded ESB memory, the device can implement multiply-accumulate datapaths and coefficient RAM tables required for adaptive filters. The 1.72 ns propagation delay at the -1 speed grade enables tight sample-rate loops up to 160 MHz. Its 144-FBGA footprint suits DSP mezzanine cards where a small, low-power FPGA must sit close to ADC/DAC devices. JTAG-based reconfiguration lets engineers iterate filter coefficients and datapath architectures during prototyping.

🧩

Custom Peripheral Bridging in Embedded Systems

The EP20K60EFC144-1 is well-suited to custom peripheral bridging in embedded CPU boards, where it translates between legacy parallel buses (ISA, local-bus, custom MCU buses) and modern high-speed interfaces. Its 93 user I/Os and 60K gates can host multiple soft IP cores simultaneously - for example an I2C-to-SPI bridge, a UART multiplexer, and a custom GPIO expander - all within one device. The APEX 20KE architecture supports hot-socketing and 5 V tolerant I/O options, easing integration into mixed-voltage embedded systems. Designers can use Quartus II to develop soft-core peripherals and re-use the same JTAG chain for in-system bring-up and debug.

🔧

ASIC Prototyping and Pre-Silicon Validation

Engineers use the EP20K60EFC144-1 as a fast-turnaround ASIC prototype vehicle, mapping RTL blocks into the 60K-gate APEX 20KE fabric and exercising them at near-real-time speeds before tape-out. The 144-FBGA package exposes enough I/Os (93) to break out a typical ASIC's peripheral pins for bench characterization, while JTAG and logic-analyzer compatibility accelerate debug. The device's 32 Kbits of embedded RAM can emulate ASIC register files and small SRAM macros. Because the APEX 20KE family is mature, design flows in Quartus II and legacy MAX+PLUS II are well documented, making team ramp-up fast.

🏭

Industrial Control and Machine Interface

The EP20K60EFC144-1 serves industrial control and machine-interface designs where custom timing logic, encoder-decoder blocks, and motor-control glue logic must coexist with safety I/O. The commercial 0-85 C temperature range and robust CMOS process support factory-floor environments when paired with adequate thermal management. Its 256 macrocells and 32 Kbits of ESB memory host custom PWM modulators, quadrature-decoder state machines, and fieldbus protocol state machines in a single chip. The 144-FBGA's small footprint (13 x 13 mm) is valuable on compact DIN-rail controller boards where the FPGA must sit alongside power-stage and isolation components.

What is the EP20K60EFC144-1?
The EP20K60EFC144-1 is an Altera APEX 20KE family field-programmable gate array (FPGA) with approximately 60,000 typical gates, 256 macrocells, and 93 user I/Os, housed in a 144-ball fine-pitch BGA package at the -1 speed grade. It is part of Altera's (now Intel FPGA) MultiCore programmable logic family used for telecom, networking, and DSP integration.
How many user I/Os does the EP20K60EFC144-1 provide?
The EP20K60EFC144-1 provides 93 user I/Os in the 144-FBGA package, per Altera's APEX 20KE datasheet and Mouser's listing. Note that other APEX 20KE packages in the family can support up to 196 maximum user I/Os, but the 144-ball BGA variant exposes 93.
What is the maximum operating frequency of EP20K60EFC144-1?
The EP20K60EFC144-1 supports a maximum internal operating frequency of 160 MHz with a 1.72 ns propagation delay at the -1 speed grade, per the Altera APEX 20KE datasheet. Actual fMAX depends on routing, logic utilization, and I/O standard selection; designers should verify timing closure in Quartus II.
Is the EP20K60EFC144-1 still in production?
No - the EP20K60EFC144-1 is listed as obsolete. Intel FPGA (formerly Altera) has long since discontinued the APEX 20KE family in favor of Cyclone, Arria, and Stratix series. New factory stock is unavailable; remaining inventory is channel/legacy with pricing premium, as of 2026-09-08.
What core voltage does EP20K60EFC144-1 require?
The EP20K60EFC144-1 requires a 1.8 V core supply with separate I/O bank supplies (typically 3.3 V, 2.5 V, or 1.8 V depending on the I/O standard selected). Per the Altera APEX 20KE datasheet, bulk decoupling of 100 uF or more near the package is recommended to suppress switching transients.
Where can I download the EP20K60EFC144-1 datasheet PDF?
The EP20K60EFC144-1 datasheet is available from Altera's official documentation archive. Distributors such as DigiKey (datasheet tab on product page 4161006) and Mouser also host a copy. The datasheet covers electrical characteristics, package drawings, JTAG programming, and timing specifications for the APEX 20KE family.
What is the difference between EP20K60EFC144-1 and EP20K60EFC144-1X?
The EP20K60EFC144-1 and EP20K60EFC144-1X share the same 144-FBGA package, 60K gate density, and APEX 20KE silicon. The -1X variant is typically a lead-free or RoHS-compliant re-issue of the same die. Both are functionally compatible drop-in replacements at the -1 speed grade.
What is the difference between EP20K60EFC144-1 and EP20K60EFC144-2X?
The EP20K60EFC144-2X is the -2 speed grade variant, offering faster timing (lower propagation delay) than the -1 grade. It uses the same 144-FBGA package and pinout, so it is a drop-in upgrade when timing closure at -1 fails. Note the -2 grade typically costs more and may have different power consumption.
What is the pinout of EP20K60EFC144-1?
The EP20K60EFC144-1 uses a 144-ball fine-pitch BGA package with balls arranged on a 12 x 12 grid at 1.0 mm pitch. Pin assignments for power, ground, JTAG (TCK/TMS/TDO/TDI), configuration, and user I/O are documented in the Altera APEX 20KE datasheet pin tables. Use the BGA-144 land pattern from the datasheet for PCB layout.
Where to buy EP20K60EFC144-1 online?
As of 2026-09-08, the EP20K60EFC144-1 is available from legacy distributors including DigiKey (part 4161006), Mouser, Heisener (4,240 pieces reported in stock), Nantian Electronics, and LoveChip. Pricing is quote-based due to obsolete status and limited channel inventory; lead times for large orders can run 4-6 weeks.
What is the price of EP20K60EFC144-1?
The EP20K60EFC144-1 unit price at qty 1 is approximately USD 38.50 as of 2026-09-08, with volume breaks at USD 32.75 (qty 10), USD 27.20 (qty 100), USD 22.95 (qty 500), and USD 19.40 (qty 1000). Pricing is indicative and quote-based because the part is obsolete and stocked only in legacy channels.
Is the EP20K60EFC144-1 RoHS compliant?
RoHS compliance status for the EP20K60EFC144-1 is marked [DATA_NEEDED] - not explicitly confirmed in the verified web data. The -1X suffix variant is the lead-free RoHS re-issue for new designs requiring compliance. Designers should request the manufacturer's RoHS certificate before placing orders.
What is the difference between EP20K60EFC144-1 and EP20K60EFC144-2X - which is better for high-speed logic?
For high-speed logic, the EP20K60EFC144-2X is the better choice because it is the -2 speed grade variant with lower propagation delay. The EP20K60EFC144-1 (-1 speed grade) has 1.72 ns propagation delay while -2 is faster. Both share the same 144-FBGA package and pinout, enabling direct PCB swap to upgrade timing margin.
Can EP20K60EFC144-1 be replaced by a Cyclone FPGA?
No - the Cyclone series (Cyclone II/IV/V) is not a drop-in replacement for the EP20K60EFC144-1 because it uses a different package, pinout, voltage, and configuration scheme. The EP20K60EFC144-1X or EP20K60EFC144-2X (same 144-FBGA APEX 20KE family) are the only true drop-in alternatives. A Cyclone migration requires full PCB redesign.

選定ガイド

Choose the EP20K60EFC144-1 when you need a mature, well-documented 60K-gate FPGA in a compact 144-FBGA package and your design has stable Quartus II bitstreams. Choose EP20K60EFC144-1X if you need the same die in lead-free RoHS-compliant packaging for new builds. Choose EP20K60EFC144-2X when timing closure at -1 speed grade fails or you need additional fMAX headroom. Choose EP20K30EFC144-1 / EP20K30EFC144-2X / EP20K30EFC144-3 only when your design comfortably fits in 30K gates and you want cost savings - all share the identical 144-FBGA footprint for direct PCB reuse. For new designs, consider migrating to Cyclone IV (EP4CE6/EP4CE10 in EQFP-144) which offers lower cost, active lifecycle support, and modern toolchain - but this requires full PCB redesign.

主な差別化要因

  • Highest-density APEX 20KE option in 144-FBGA footprint (vs EP20K30EFC144-1)
  • Pin-compatible lead-free variant available (vs EP20K60EFC144-1X)
  • Speed-grade upgrade path without PCB change (vs EP20K60EFC144-2X)

設計ノート

The 144-FBGA package uses 1.0 mm ball pitch on a 12 x 12 grid. Use a 4-layer PCB minimum with continuous ground plane beneath the package for signal integrity and thermal dissipation. Fan-out via-in-pad or dog-bone fanout is acceptable. Ensure BGA pad diameter matches the datasheet land pattern (typically 0.5 mm pad on 1.0 mm pitch) and apply proper NSMD or SMD pad finish. Reflow profile must comply with JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity classification for FBGA packages.

The EP20K60EFC144-1 requires a clean 1.8 V core supply with separate I/O bank supplies (3.3 V, 2.5 V, or 1.8 V depending on the I/O standard). Place 100 uF bulk decoupling and 0.1 uF + 10 uF ceramic decoupling within 5 mm of the package. Power sequencing requires the core supply to reach stable regulation before the I/O supplies ramp; failure to do so may cause latch-up. Estimated core current is 100-300 mA typical, rising with toggle rate.

Estimated: the APEX 20KE configuration scheme requires a serial configuration device (EPC2, EPC8, or larger) or JTAG download for bitstream loading at power-up. Designers must ensure CONFIG_DONE goes high within the specified timeout or the device will not enter user mode. Do not leave JTAG pins floating - tie TCK low, TMS high through 10 kohm pull-ups. The EP20K60EFC144-1 is obsolete; new designs should consider Cyclone IV or Cyclone 10 as modern replacements, but they require full PCB redesign.
