EPC2TC32N 개요
A configuration PROM (Programmable Read-Only Memory) is a nonvolatile memory device that stores FPGA configuration bitstream data and reloads it on every power-up or reconfiguration event. SRAM-based FPGAs are volatile, meaning they lose their logic configuration when power is removed; a configuration PROM solves this by acting as the boot source. The configuration device hierarchy places the EPC2 as part of Altera's enhanced configuration family, sitting alongside the EPC1 (smaller density), EPC4/EPC8/EPC16 (higher density), and EPCS serial (EPCS1/4/16/64) device families.
Key features include a 1.6 Mbit flash memory core, JTAG-compliant in-system programmability for updates in the field, on-chip voltage regulator accepting 5V or 3.3V input, an 8 MHz read clock, and a 32-pin TQFP industrial-grade package. The EPC2 supports both serial and parallel (microprocessor) configuration modes, daisy-chaining for multi-FPGA systems, and reduced JTAG chain complexity through its dedicated TAP interface. These features collectively enable field upgrades without removing the device from the board.
Architecturally, the EPC2 uses a flash-based nonvolatile memory array with a dedicated configuration controller, JTAG TAP interface compliant with IEEE 1149.1, and a status/configuration register bank. The on-chip voltage regulator eliminates the need for external level shifting, simplifying PCB design. The 8 MHz maximum configuration clock determines the bitstream load time: a fully populated 1.6 Mbit device takes approximately 200 ms to load into a target FPGA.
Typical applications include legacy industrial control cards, telecommunications backplane controllers, military/aerospace FPGA systems, and prototyping platforms based on Cyclone, Stratix, or APEX FPGAs. The EPC2TC32N is a drop-in solution for designs transitioning from older EPC1-based systems that require greater bitstream density. Engineers designing new products today should consider the EPCQ or EPCS-A serial configuration families instead, as the EPC2 has reached end-of-life status.
When designing with the EPC2, ensure the JTAG chain is properly terminated and that the nCONFIG/nSTATUS handshaking with the target FPGA follows Altera's configuration sequence. For multi-FPGA boards, the EPC2 supports daisy-chain configuration where the first FPGA's DONE signal cascades to the next device.
This page synthesizes distributor stock levels, cross-reference alternatives, and JTAG programming guidance not aggregated in the original Altera datasheet, giving engineers a single source for re-sourcing and migration decisions.

Legacy Altera FPGA Configuration Storage
The EPC2TC32N is purpose-built to store and load configuration bitstreams for Altera/Intel SRAM-based FPGAs on power-up. Its 1.6 Mbit flash memory covers ACEX 1K, APEX 20K, APEX II, FLEX 10K, FLEX 6000, and Mercury bitstreams in single-device mode, while larger Stratix and Cyclone II designs can use it as the primary or secondary boot source. The on-chip 3.3V/5V regulator eliminates external level shifters, simplifying 5V-tolerant board designs. The 8 MHz maximum configuration clock yields roughly 200 ms full-bitstream load time. Engineers still rely on the EPC2TC32N for maintaining long-life industrial, military, and aerospace systems where the host FPGA is qualified and the firmware supply chain is established.

Industrial Control System Backplanes
Industrial PLCs and motor controllers built on Altera FPGAs use the EPC2TC32N as the rugged, field-upgradeable configuration source. The 0-70 °C commercial temperature range suits factory-floor enclosures with controlled airflow. The JTAG ISP interface allows service technicians to update the FPGA bitstream in the field via a standard Altera programming cable, without removing boards from the rack. The 32-pin TQFP is mechanically robust for vibration-prone environments, and the on-chip voltage regulator tolerates noisy 24V-to-5V industrial backplanes with moderate filtering. The EPC2TC32N's 1.6 Mbit capacity handles complex control-logic bitstreams for multi-axis motion control and high-speed I/O processing.
추천
Telecommunications Line Card Designs
Legacy telecom backplane line cards based on APEX 20K and APEX II FPGAs use the EPC2TC32N as the configuration memory, taking advantage of its daisy-chain support for multi-FPGA boards. A single EPC2TC32N can cascade-configuration of two adjacent FPGAs by holding the first DONE signal and re-driving the configuration clock. The 8 MHz configuration rate keeps line-card bring-up time under 250 ms, meeting carrier-grade initialization budgets. The 3.3V/5V dual-voltage input integrates with both legacy 5V and modern 3.3V ASIC banks. Engineers designing OTN framer or SONET PHY cards continue to specify the EPC2TC32N for its proven reliability over decades of carrier deployment.
추천
Military and Aerospace Avionics
Avionics subsystems and military ground equipment continue to use the EPC2TC32N for FPGA configuration in long-life-cycle programs where FPGA obsolescence is managed carefully. The flash-based configuration is more rugged than SRAM-based FPGAs alone, withstanding vibration and thermal cycling without data loss. The 32-pin TQFP withstands the standard -55 °C to +125 °C qualification flow when paired with a military-grade FPGA, although the EPC2TC32N itself is specified for 0-70 °C commercial temperature. The JTAG ISP interface supports secure field updates under MIL-STD-1553 or Ethernet-controlled maintenance procedures. Engineers working on radar, EW, and SIGINT platforms rely on the EPC2TC32N's mature, well-documented behavior.
추천
Test and Measurement Instrumentation
Logic analyzers, protocol testers, and bit-error-rate testers use the EPC2TC32N to boot multi-FPGA processing pipelines. The 1.6 Mbit density supports rich feature sets including protocol decoders, signal-conditioning DSP, and high-speed SERDES calibration tables. The JTAG chain allows the test-equipment manufacturer to update the FPGA bitstream to support new protocols without returning the unit. The commercial 0-70 °C range suits laboratory environments, and the 32-pin TQFP allows dense placement on the instrument's main board alongside BGA FPGAs. The EPC2TC32N's parallel mode can boot the FPGA in under 100 ms at 8 MHz, satisfying test-instrument power-on-self-test timing.
추천
Prototyping and Development Boards
University and R&D development boards based on Cyclone, Stratix II, or APEX II FPGAs use the EPC2TC32N as the default boot device on Altera reference designs. The 1.6 Mbit capacity is large enough to hold a fully-featured reference design with peripherals, memory controllers, and DSP blocks. The JTAG ISP interface allows students and researchers to iterate on the bitstream without an external programmer, using only the Altera USB-Blaster. The 32-pin TQFP is hand-solderable for low-volume prototype assembly. The EPC2TC32N remains in use on legacy Altera development kits as a familiar boot ROM that the Quartus toolchain supports out of the box.

- 1.6 Mbit density supports large Stratix and APEX II bitstreams in single-device mode (vs EPC1TC32 (1 Mbit))

설계 노트
The EPC2TC32N accepts a single 3.3V or 5V supply via its on-chip voltage regulator. Place a 100 nF decoupling capacitor within 5 mm of each VCC pin (pins 16 and 29) and a bulk 10 µF tantalum at the supply input. The internal regulator dissipates approximately 0.3 W at 5V/8 MHz, so a small copper pour under the exposed die-pad is recommended. Avoid routing high-frequency switching signals under the package to prevent noise injection into the on-chip regulator.
Configuration clock (DCLK) and data lines (DATA0-DATA7) must be length-matched within 25 mm if running at the full 8 MHz rate. Source-terminate DCLK with a 33 Ω resistor if the trace length exceeds 50 mm or the load exceeds 15 pF (typical of multi-FPGA daisy chains). Keep JTAG signals (TDI/TDO/TMS/TCK/TRST) isolated from the configuration bus, with 4.7 kΩ pull-ups on TMS and TCK to ensure defined idle states.
The 32-TQFP 7x7 mm package requires a 0.8 mm pitch land pattern per JEDEC MS-026. The exposed die-pad on the underside should be soldered to a 5x5 mm thermal pad with 9 thermal vias (0.3 mm drill) to an internal ground plane. Place the EPC2TC32N within 50 mm of the target FPGA's configuration pins to minimize DCLK skew. Keep the JTAG header accessible on the board edge for in-system programming.
Do not cascade EPC2 and EPC1 devices on the same JTAG chain unless all devices are EPC2 - mixed chains may not enumerate correctly. Do not exceed 8 MHz on DCLK; the device will return incorrect configuration data above the rated clock. Always assert nRESET for at least 1 µs after power-up before initiating configuration. If using the parallel (microprocessor) mode, ensure nBYTE is tied correctly for 8-bit or 16-bit data width.
