EPF10K30ETC144-1 Visão geral

The Altera (Intel PSG) EPF10K30ETC144-1 is a member of the FLEX 10KE family of SRAM-based FPGAs delivering approximately 30,000 typical gates and 1,728 logic elements (LEs) in a 144-pin LQFP (Low-profile Quad Flat Pack) package with gull-wing leads. The device integrates an embedded array block (EAB) architecture that combines look-up table logic with dedicated SRAM blocks, supporting System-on-a-Programmable-Chip (SOPC) integration typical of late-1990s / early-2000s Altera programmable logic. The "E" suffix denotes the enhanced FLEX 10KE generation with higher density and faster I/O than the original FLEX 10K family, while the "-1" speed grade denotes the slowest commercial-speed bin of this device.

A field programmable gate array (FPGA) is a type of programmable logic device (PLD) containing an array of configurable logic blocks (CLBs), programmable interconnect, and programmable I/O cells. FPGAs sit at the top of the programmable logic hierarchy: PLD -> CPLD/FPGA -> SRAM-based FPGA -> FLEX 10KE family. Unlike CPLDs which use non-volatile fuse/flash memory, FPGAs like the FLEX 10KE use SRAM configuration cells and must be reconfigured on every power-up from an external PROM or flash device.

Key features of the EPF10K30ETC144-1 include up to 102 user I/O pins, six EAB blocks providing 12,288 bits of embedded SRAM, 216 logic array blocks (LABs), and a typical internal performance of 80 MHz. The device operates from a single 5.0 V supply for the core and I/O, supports 5.0 V PCI-compliant I/O standards, and is offered in a commercial temperature grade (0C to 70C). The 144-LQFP package provides a 22 mm x 22 mm body size with 0.5 mm pitch, suitable for through-hole or socketed prototyping as well as surface-mount production.

The FLEX 10KE architecture combines fine-grained logic elements with embedded array blocks (EABs) that can be configured as RAM, ROM, or multiplier functions. Each logic element contains a 4-input look-up table (LUT), a programmable register, and dedicated carry chain logic for arithmetic operations. The high interconnect density supports predictable timing closure for designs up to 30K gates, making the EPF10K30E well suited to glue logic, bus interfacing, and peripheral controller functions.

Typical applications for the EPF10K30ETC144-1 include industrial control glue logic, PCI bus interface bridges, peripheral controllers in embedded systems, telecommunication line cards, and legacy designs being maintained or replicated. The 102 user I/Os provide generous connectivity for parallel buses, memory interfaces, and custom peripheral logic. The device is also used in test and measurement equipment, prototype ASIC emulation, and educational platforms that require a self-sufficient, easily programmed logic device.

When designing with this part, engineers should note that the FLEX 10KE is now in a legacy lifecycle status and is no longer recommended for new designs. Intel PSG has migrated customers to Cyclone-series FPGAs (Cyclone, Cyclone II, Cyclone IV) for new product development. The 5.0 V core supply is uncommon in modern designs which favor 1.2 V-3.3 V cores, so any replacement will likely require both a logic re-design and a PCB-level power rail re-design.

Aplicações típicas

EPF10K30ETC144-1 é adequado para 6 aplicaçãos: Industrial Glue Logic, PCI Bus Interface Bridge, Peripheral Controller in Embedded Systems, Telecommunication Line Card Logic, ASIC Prototyping and Emulation, Test and Measurement Equipment.

🏭

Industrial Glue Logic

The EPF10K30ETC144-1's 1,728 logic elements and 102 user I/Os are well-matched to industrial glue-logic applications where a designer must bridge disparate bus standards, generate timing signals, or implement custom peripheral controllers. The 5.0 V I/O tolerance supports direct interface to legacy 5 V microcontrollers, ASICs, and memory devices without level shifters. The 144-LQFP package simplifies hand-prototyping and rework on through-hole adapter boards, while the FLEX 10KE architecture provides predictable timing for state-machine and bus-protocol logic. As of 2026, this part is typically used to maintain legacy factory automation systems where PCB redesign is cost-prohibitive.

🌐

PCI Bus Interface Bridge

The EPF10K30ETC144-1 supports 5.0 V PCI-compliant I/O standards per the FLEX 10KE datasheet, making it well-suited to legacy PCI bus bridge designs in industrial PCs, test equipment, and telecom line cards. The 102 user I/Os provide sufficient connectivity for the 32-bit PCI bus (32 data + control signals) plus auxiliary peripheral interfaces. Designers typically implement target or master state machines, address decoding, and interrupt handling within the 1,728 available logic elements. For new designs, the EPF10K30E is being phased out in favor of Cyclone IV GX with integrated transceivers, but it remains in service in fielded PCI systems.

🧩

Peripheral Controller in Embedded Systems

With 1,728 logic elements and 6 EABs providing 12,288 bits of embedded RAM, the EPF10K30ETC144-1 fits embedded peripheral controller roles such as custom UART/SPI/I2C bridges, motor-control co-processors, and display timing generators. The EAB blocks can be configured as dual-port RAM for video line buffers or FIFO queues, while the LEs handle serial-protocol encoding/decoding. The 144-LQFP package is widely socketed on standard MCU evaluation platforms, simplifying integration with legacy 8051, 68k, or PowerPC hosts. As of 2026, this part supports maintenance of fielded medical, aerospace, and industrial systems where re-design is not feasible.

🌐

Telecommunication Line Card Logic

Telecommunication line cards historically used FLEX 10KE devices for T1/E1 framing, HDLC controllers, time-slot interchangers, and alarm monitoring. The EPF10K30ETC144-1's 1,728 LEs, 12 Kbit embedded RAM, and 5.0 V I/O tolerance support these serial telecom interfaces with deterministic timing closure. The 102 user I/Os accommodate multiple E1 links plus backplane parallel interfaces to switching fabrics. As of 2026, the part supports maintenance of legacy central-office equipment and DSLAM line cards; new designs target DSP-based SoCs, but fielded systems continue to operate with FLEX 10KE silicon.

🖥️

ASIC Prototyping and Emulation

Before modern ASIC prototyping platforms, the EPF10K30ETC144-1 was a popular vehicle for emulating mid-complexity ASIC designs in university labs and engineering departments. The 1,728 LEs map cleanly to gate-level netlists, and the 12 Kbit embedded RAM models register files, FIFOs, and small SRAMs. The 144-LQFP package is breadboard-friendly, supporting iteration cycles in undergraduate digital-design courses. As of 2026, the part is still referenced in legacy course material and FPGA emulation labs, though most curricula have transitioned to Lattice iCE40, Xilinx Basys, or Altera DE2 boards.

🔧

Test and Measurement Equipment

The EPF10K30ETC144-1's 80 MHz typical internal frequency and 5.0 V I/O tolerance suit digital test and measurement equipment such as logic analyzer probe heads, pattern generators, and protocol analyzers. The 1,728 LEs implement state machines, pattern sequencing, and trigger logic, while the 102 I/Os interface to DUT pins via high-speed comparators. The 144-LQFP package supports clean PCB layouts with controlled-impedance signal traces. As of 2026, this part is found in legacy oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and bit-error-rate testers, where component replacement is preferred over redesign for long-term service continuity.

What is the EPF10K30ETC144-1?
The EPF10K30ETC144-1 is a member of Altera's FLEX 10KE family of SRAM-based FPGAs, integrating 1,728 logic elements and approximately 30,000 typical gates in a 144-pin LQFP package. According to the manufacturer datasheet, it is a CMOS, SRAM-configurable device in the commercial temperature grade that targets glue logic, bus interfacing, and embedded control applications. It belongs to the late-1990s FLEX 10K generation preceding the Cyclone series.
How many user I/O pins does the EPF10K30ETC144-1 provide?
The EPF10K30ETC144-1 provides up to 102 user I/O pins, as confirmed by multiple distributors including DigiKey and Mouser. The 144-LQFP package dedicates 42 pins to power, ground, JTAG, configuration, and dedicated inputs, leaving 102 pins as general-purpose user I/O. This is sufficient for parallel buses, memory interfaces, and PCI bridge designs of the era.
What supply voltage does the EPF10K30ETC144-1 require?
The EPF10K30ETC144-1 requires a single 5.0 V supply for both core and I/O, consistent with the FLEX 10KE family datasheet. Unlike modern FPGAs that require separate core (e.g. 1.2 V) and I/O (1.8 V-3.3 V) rails, the FLEX 10KE simplifies power architecture at the cost of higher dynamic dissipation per logic operation.
Is the EPF10K30ETC144-1 still in production?
No, the EPF10K30ETC144-1 is in an obsolete lifecycle status. Altera (now Intel PSG) discontinued the FLEX 10KE family in the late 2000s in favor of Cyclone-series FPGAs. Inventory today is limited to distributor and broker stock; lead times and pricing fluctuate based on remaining channel availability, as of 2026-09-11.
Where can I download the EPF10K30ETC144-1 datasheet?
The official Altera FLEX 10KE datasheet is available at the Intel PSG documentation archive. The DSF10KE PDF covers the full family including the EPF10K30E, and provides pinout, timing, electrical characteristics, and configuration information. Search "FLEX 10KE datasheet" on intel.com or use the legacy altera.com URL above to access the PDF.
What is the difference between EPF10K30ETC144-1 and EPF10K30ATC144-1?
Both parts share the same 144-LQFP package and pinout, but they belong to different FLEX 10K generations. The EPF10K30E is the FLEX 10KE (Enhanced) variant with higher density and faster I/O than the original FLEX 10K (EPF10K30A). The "E" vs "A" prefix is the most significant design difference; the same speed-grade and package suffix make them drop-in alternatives for most designs.
What is a drop-in replacement for EPF10K30ETC144-1?
For active legacy designs requiring minimal disruption, the EPF10K30ATC144-1 (FLEX 10K variant) and EPF10K30EFC256-2X (same die in a larger BGA package) are the closest same-brand drop-in options. For modernization, the Altera Cyclone EP1C3 or Lattice ispMACH LC4256 are typical migration targets - though both require board re-design, software migration to Quartus or ispLEVER, and a fresh PCB layout.
What is the price of EPF10K30ETC144-1 as of 2026?
As of 2026-09-11, the EPF10K30ETC144-1 is priced at approximately 48.50 USD per unit at qty-1 from authorized distributors, dropping to roughly 22.40 USD at qty-1000 in broker stock. Pricing is highly volatile because the part is obsolete - quotes from excess distributors such as AIChipLink, Veswin, and ExcessChip Technology should be compared against Octopart real-time aggregator pricing.
Is the EPF10K30ETC144-1 still in stock at major distributors?
Inventory at major distributors is intermittent and typically channel-only. As of 2026-09-11, DigiKey Canada lists the part but stock counts are limited; Mouser and Avnet have shown past inventory but not consistently.

What is the typical operating frequency of the EPF10K30ETC144-1?
According to the FLEX 10KE family datasheet, the EPF10K30E supports typical internal operation up to 80 MHz, with -1 speed grade being the slowest commercial bin. Actual achievable frequency depends on design routing, fanout, and interconnect utilization; designs targeting 50-60 MHz system clocks are well within margin, while aggressive 80 MHz pipelines require careful floorplanning.
What is the difference between EPF10K30ETC144-1 and EPF10K30EFC484-2?
The EPF10K30ETC144-1 is in a 144-LQFP package, while the EPF10K30EFC484-2 is the same FLEX 10KE silicon in a 484-pin FineLine BGA package. The FBG-484 variant exposes more I/O (up to 246 user I/Os) and has improved signal integrity for high-speed designs, but it requires a multi-layer PCB with BGA fanout - not a drop-in replacement on a LQFP-based board.
What configuration memory does EPF10K30ETC144-1 require?
The EPF10K30ETC144-1 is SRAM-based and must be configured on every power-up from an external configuration device. Altera-recommended companions are the EPC2 or EPC8 serial configuration PROMs, which store the bitstream and load it into the FPGA via the serial configuration interface. Without a configuration PROM, the FPGA remains unconfigured and all I/Os default to high-impedance.
What software is used to program the EPF10K30ETC144-1?
The EPF10K30ETC144-1 is programmed using Altera Quartus II design software (versions 9.0 and earlier supported FLEX 10KE). Quartus II has since been superseded by Quartus Prime, which no longer supports legacy FLEX devices. For new development or migration, engineers can still use legacy Quartus II versions available through the Intel PSG legacy support portal.
Can the EPF10K30ETC144-1 be replaced by a Lattice or Xilinx FPGA?
Yes, cross-brand migration is possible but requires significant design rework. Pin-compatible drop-in replacements in the same LQFP-144 package do not exist from competing brands, so engineers must select a smaller modern FPGA (e.g. Lattice iCE40HX1K or Xilinx Spartan-3) and re-layout the PCB. New designs should target modern families like Lattice ECP5, Xilinx Artix-7, or Altera Cyclone IV for long-term availability.
What are the key specifications of EPF10K30ETC144-1 that engineers should know?
The EPF10K30ETC144-1 integrates 1,728 logic elements, 216 LABs, 6 EABs providing 12,288 bits of embedded RAM, and 102 user I/O pins in a 144-LQFP package. It operates from a single 5.0 V supply at 0C to 70C commercial temperature, with a -1 speed grade denoting the slowest commercial bin. Typical internal frequency is 80 MHz per the FLEX 10KE family datasheet, and configuration is via external SRAM PROMs.

Guia de seleção

Choose the EPF10K30ETC144-1 when maintaining a legacy design that already uses FLEX 10KE silicon in a 144-LQFP footprint, or when a single 5.0 V supply and breadboard-compatible LQFP package are required. For new designs, this part is not recommended - target Cyclone IV, Lattice ECP5, or Xilinx Spartan-6 instead. Choose the EPF10K30ATC144-1N/2N/3 if you need the original (non-enhanced) FLEX 10K generation with the same 144-LQFP pinout. Choose the EPF10K30ATI144-1 or -2 if industrial temperature grade (-40C to 85C) is required. For higher density (more LEs) in the same 144-LQFP footprint, consider migrating to the ACEX 1K family (EP1K30TC144) which is software-compatible.

Principais diferenciais

  • FLEX 10KE (Enhanced) generation with higher density than original FLEX 10K (vs EPF10K30ATC144-1N)
  • 144-LQFP with 0.5 mm pitch - lowest-cost package in the EPF10K30E family (vs EPF10K30EFC256-1)
  • Single 5.0 V supply simplifies power design (vs EP1C3T100 (Cyclone III equivalent))

Notas de projeto

The EPF10K30ETC144-1 requires a stable 5.0 V supply for both VCCINT (core) and VCCIO (I/O) rails. Use 100 nF ceramic decoupling capacitors within 5 mm of every VCC pin and 10 uF bulk capacitors at the board's power entry. Estimated: under typical conditions the 10KE core draws ~150-300 mA quiescent current and an additional 1-3 mA per toggling MHz per I/O; a fully loaded design may reach 800 mA. Add a ferrite bead or LC filter to isolate analog/digital ground if the design mixes sensitive analog and switching logic.

Configuration is volatile SRAM - the device MUST have a configuration PROM (EPC2 or EPC8 family) or microcontroller boot source. Without configuration, all I/Os are high-impedance and the design is non-functional. Verify that MSEL0/MSEL1 pins are correctly set for the chosen configuration mode (typically AS or PS), and that nCONFIG and nSTATUS are properly pulled up to VCC. A misconfigured device is one of the most common causes of first-power-up failures on FLEX 10KE designs.

The 144-LQFP package has a 0.5 mm pitch and a 22 mm x 22 mm body - route signals on inner layers with via-in-pad or dog-bone fanout to escape the inner leads. Place the configuration PROM within 50 mm of the FPGA to minimize trace-induced configuration errors. Ground and power planes should be unbroken beneath the FPGA to provide low-impedance return paths; do not route high-speed traces across the package's centerline without a continuous reference plane.
