EPF10K30ETC144-2 Visão geral

The Intel (formerly Altera) EPF10K30ETC144-2 is a member of the FLEX 10KE family of Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) that delivers 30,000 typical gates and 1,728 logic elements in a 144-pin LQFP surface-mount package. The device integrates 24,576 bits of embedded array memory, 102 user I/Os, and 216 Logic Array Blocks (LABs), combining look-up-table (LUT) logic with embedded array blocks for System-on-a-Programmable-Chip (SOPC) integration. The "-2" speed grade is a mid-tier performance option within the family, while the "C" letter denotes the commercial 0C to 70C operating temperature range.

A Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is a type of integrated circuit that can be reconfigured by the customer after manufacturing to implement arbitrary digital logic. FPGAs sit in the broader taxonomy of programmable logic devices (PLDs), which also includes CPLDs and PALs. The FLEX 10KE family is built on a CMOS SRAM-based architecture, meaning the configuration is volatile and must be reloaded from an external PROM or flash on power-up. Within the broader semiconductor hierarchy, an FPGA belongs to the category of logic ICs / digital ICs, used wherever custom glue logic, high-speed datapath processing, or hardware-level parallelism is needed.

Key features of the EPF10K30ETC144-2 include 24576 embedded memory bits organized as Embedded Array Blocks (EABs), 4-input look-up-tables (LUTs) for combinational and registered logic, multi-voltage I/O support, and a dedicated clock network with up to 6 global clock pins. The device supports in-system programming via the IEEE 1149.1 (JTAG) interface and is supported by the Altera MAX+PLUS II and Quartus design toolchains. Internal signal frequencies up to 80 MHz are achievable in this speed grade, with pin-to-pin propagation delays as low as 0.6 ns in carry-chain configurations.

The architecture combines a fine-grained logic fabric (LABs containing 8 Logic Elements each) with coarse-grained EABs that can implement RAM, ROM, or multiplier functions. This hybrid structure is the defining feature of the FLEX 10KE family and the predecessor to later APEX and Cyclone families. MultiVolt I/O allows interfacing with 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5.0 V logic without external level shifters when correctly configured.

Typical applications include telecommunications line cards and routers, industrial control and factory automation, legacy PCI bridge and bus-interface designs, prototyping ASICs, and replacement of discrete TTL/CMOS glue-logic on legacy PCBs. The 144-LQFP package is suitable for hand-repair and through-hole-adjacent prototype boards where BGAs are impractical.

When designing with this FPGA, plan for an external configuration PROM (e.g. EPC2 or EPC8) because the SRAM cells are volatile. Use proper decoupling (100 nF plus 10 uF bulk) on every VCCINT and VCCIO pin and follow Altera's AN75 application note for high-speed PCB layout to minimize simultaneous switching noise (SSN). This page synthesizes distributor pricing, drop-in same-family alternatives, and practical design considerations not found in the manufacturer datasheet alone.

Aplicações típicas

EPF10K30ETC144-2 é adequado para 6 aplicaçãos: Legacy Industrial Control and PLC Backplanes, Telecommunications Line Cards and TDM Bridges, ASIC Prototyping and Hardware Emulation, PCI Bridge and Bus-Interface Designs, Display and Video Timing Controllers, Test and Measurement Front-Ends.

🏭

Legacy Industrial Control and PLC Backplanes

The EPF10K30ETC144-2 is widely deployed in legacy PLC backplanes and industrial control modules where 30,000-gate logic capacity and 102 user I/Os are sufficient for motor-control sequencing, I/O expansion, and protocol bridging. Its 2.5 V VCCINT and MultiVolt I/O (2.5/3.3/5.0 V) simplify interfacing to legacy 5 V peripherals still common in factory automation. Designers value the 144-LQFP package because it allows hand-repair and BGA-free prototyping on long-lifecycle industrial equipment. Compared with modern Cyclone IV replacements, the EPF10K30E form factor remains drop-in compatible on existing PCBs. The EABs (Embedded Array Blocks) provide 24 kbits of on-chip memory for lookup-table-driven state machines and protocol translation.

🌐

Telecommunications Line Cards and TDM Bridges

Telecommunications line cards from the late 1990s and early 2000s used the FLEX 10KE family for TDM bus bridging, HDLC framing, and low-density packet classification. The EPF10K30ETC144-2 fits 8-bit and 16-bit TDM stream multiplexing with its 80 MHz internal Fmax and 0.6 ns propagation delay. The 102 user I/Os comfortably support parallel T1/E1 framers and PCM highway interfaces. Embedded array blocks are used to implement small CAM-like lookup tables for channel-associated signaling. Where original designs specified FLEX 10KE, the EPF10K30ETC144-2 remains a direct upgrade from the original 10K and 10KA families.

🖥️

ASIC Prototyping and Hardware Emulation

The EPF10K30ETC144-2 has historically been used as a multi-chip ASIC prototyping platform because its LUT-based logic fabric can absorb a target ASIC's random logic and its EABs can emulate small SRAM blocks. Designers map RTL (VHDL/Verilog) to FLEX 10KE using Quartus Prime or MAX+PLUS II and validate at near-real-time clock speeds. With 30,000 gates, the device is sized for ASIC prototyping of single-chip controllers, audio DSPs, and small protocol stacks. The commercial 0C to 70C temperature range is sufficient for lab and chassis prototyping.

🔧

PCI Bridge and Bus-Interface Designs

The EPF10K30ETC144-2 was a popular choice for PCI 2.2 bus bridges, ISA-to-PCI adapters, and custom 32-bit local-bus controllers in the early 2000s. The 80 MHz internal frequency and the dedicated clock network (up to 6 global clocks) are well-suited to 33 MHz PCI operation with margin for state-machine latency. The MultiVolt I/O banks allow the FPGA to interface directly to 5 V PCI slots without external buffers. The 102 user I/Os cover a 32-bit data bus plus parity, control, and interrupt signals with headroom. PCI designs transitioning to PCIe use the EPF10K30E primarily for legacy card maintenance.

📺

Display and Video Timing Controllers

The EPF10K30ETC144-2 serves in industrial flat-panel timing controllers and legacy CRT/LCD controllers where the user needs precise multi-clock synchronization. Its 216 LABs and 102 user I/Os are sufficient for driving RGB parallel interfaces, generating HSYNC/VSYNC, and pixel-clock multiplication via the PLL-less dedicated clock network. The EABs can store character ROMs, font tables, or color LUTs for small displays. Industrial display modules from 1998-2005 frequently use FLEX 10KE variants, and the EPF10K30ETC144-2 remains a service replacement.

🎥

Test and Measurement Front-Ends

Test and measurement front-ends use the EPF10K30ETC144-2 for pattern generation, programmable trigger logic, and protocol-aware stimulus synthesis. Its SRAM-based configuration allows the same hardware to be reprogrammed in seconds via JTAG to support different test patterns across production lines. The 24,576 bits of embedded memory provide scratch storage for stimulus buffers and captured-response comparison. The 144-LQFP package simplifies benchtop instrument PCBs and supports field upgrades through configuration PROM swap.

What is the EPF10K30ETC144-2?
The EPF10K30ETC144-2 is an Intel/Altera FLEX 10KE family Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) in a 144-pin LQFP package. According to the manufacturer datasheet, it provides 30,000 typical gates, 1,728 logic elements, 102 user I/Os, and 24,576 embedded memory bits. It is a commercial-temperature, speed-grade -2 device aimed at legacy glue-logic, telecommunications, and industrial control designs.
How many user I/Os does the EPF10K30ETC144-2 have?
The EPF10K30ETC144-2 provides 102 user I/O pins in the 144-LQFP package, with 102 of the 144 package pins available as general-purpose I/O after power, ground, JTAG, and dedicated configuration pins are reserved. This is sufficient for 32-bit datapaths, parallel memory interfaces, and most glue-logic bridging tasks.
What is the operating voltage of the EPF10K30ETC144-2?
The EPF10K30ETC144-2 uses a 2.5 V core supply (VCCINT, range 2.375 V to 2.625 V) with MultiVolt I/O supporting 2.5 V, 3.3 V, or 5.0 V VCCIO rails. According to the FLEX 10KE datasheet, separate VCCINT and VCCIO pins must each be decoupled with 100 nF ceramic and 10 uF bulk capacitors placed as close to the package as possible.
Is the EPF10K30ETC144-2 still in production?
No. The FLEX 10KE family was discontinued by Altera and is now considered obsolete, with remaining inventory sold through distributors like Rochester Electronics and secondary-market brokers. According to DigiKey and Mouser listings, stock is limited and pricing has risen sharply; long-term designs should plan for migration to Cyclone IV or Cyclone 10 GX FPGAs.
What is the internal clock frequency of the EPF10K30ETC144-2?
The EPF10K30ETC144-2 speed grade -2 supports internal clock frequencies up to 80 MHz in the FLEX 10KE family. Real-world achievable frequency depends on design routing and logic depth; for timing closure the datasheet recommends using the Quartus TimeQuest timing analyzer with the -2 timing model.
What is the difference between EPF10K30ETC144-2 and EPF10K30ETC144-1?
The EPF10K30ETC144-2 is the medium speed grade of the same die, while the -1 variant is the slowest and the -3 is the fastest. Higher speed grades (lower number for slower, -3 for faster) typically command higher prices and are required when designs fail timing closure at the slower speed grade. Pin-out and electrical specifications are identical across speed grades.
Where to buy EPF10K30ETC144-2 online?
The EPF10K30ETC144-2 is available from authorized distributors including DigiKey (Rochester Electronics franchise), Mouser, Heisener, AIChipLink, and Avaq. As of 2026-09-11, Heisener lists in stock at approximately $60.80 unit price. Expect minimum-order quantities and extended lead times because the part is obsolete.
What is the lead time for EPF10K30ETC144-2?
The lead time for EPF10K30ETC144-2 is to-be-confirmed because the part is obsolete and held in allocated distributor or broker stock. Heisener currently estimates February 27 to March 4 delivery on available inventory; for production volumes, request a quote and authorize a multi-year forecast to lock allocation before stock is exhausted.
What is the price of EPF10K30ETC144-2?
The EPF10K30ETC144-2 unit price is approximately $60.80 at quantity 1 as of 2026-09-11, per Heisener distributor listings. Volume pricing drops to roughly $48.90 at 100 pieces and $37.80 at 1,000 pieces. Compared with original Altera MSRP, obsolete-market pricing has risen 3-5x due to scarcity.
Is EPF10K30ETC144-2 in stock?
EPF10K30ETC144-2 stock is limited and varies daily across distributors. As of 2026-09-11, Heisener lists 5,040 pieces available, and DigiKey / Mouser show small allocations via Rochester Electronics. For volume needs, contact distributor sales directly because web stock counts can be reserved or allocated to existing contracts.
EPF10K30ETC144-2 vs EPF10K30ETC144-3 - which is better?
The EPF10K30ETC144-3 is the faster speed grade of the same die in the same 144-LQFP package, suitable for designs that fail timing closure at -2. Choose -2 for lower cost and lower power when 80 MHz performance is sufficient; choose -3 when a higher Fmax margin is required and the budget supports the price premium.
When should I choose EPF10K30ETC144-2 over a modern Cyclone FPGA?
Choose EPF10K30ETC144-2 only when maintaining or repairing legacy FLEX 10KE-based PCBs, or when the existing firmware/toolchain is FLEX 10KE-specific. For new designs, prefer Intel Cyclone IV E (EP4CE6E22) or Cyclone 10 LP (10CL010YE144) which offer lower power, more logic, and active lifecycle status at comparable cost.
What is the best drop-in replacement for EPF10K30ETC144-2?
The best drop-in replacement is the EPF10K30ETC144-1 (same die, speed grade -1) when timing closure permits, or EPF10K30ETC144-3 (speed grade -3) when more timing margin is needed. All share the 144-LQFP footprint, identical pinout, and identical electrical ratings, allowing PCB-level swap without re-spin.

Guia de seleção

Choose the EPF10K30ETC144-2 when you need a 30K-gate SRAM-based FPGA in a 144-LQFP package for legacy commercial-temperature (0C to 70C) applications such as industrial control backplanes, telecom TDM bridges, PCI bus adapters, or ASIC prototyping where the existing firmware targets the FLEX 10KE toolchain. Select the EPF10K30ETC144-1 if you need a same-footprint drop-in with timing margin to spare at lower cost; select the EPF10K30ETC144-3 when timing closure fails at -2 and you need ~15% more Fmax. For industrial -40C to +85C operation, pick EPF10K30ATI144-2 (or -3N) in the same package. Avoid the EPF10K30ATC144-2N (older FLEX 10KA family) unless you must match a 10KA pinout, because it lacks EABs and uses a 3.3 V core. For new designs, prefer an active-lifecycle alternative such as Intel Cyclone IV EP4CE6E22C8N in QFP-144 or Lattice ECP5 LFE5U-12F-8BG256I.

Principais diferenciais

  • Embedded Array Blocks (EABs) for on-chip memory (vs EPF10K30ATC144-2N (older FLEX 10KA family))
  • Industrial temperature grade option in same package (vs EPF10K30ETC144-2 (commercial 0-70C))
  • Drop-in same-family alternative for legacy designs (vs EPF10K30ETC144-1 (slower speed grade))
  • SRAM-based configuration supports field upgrades (vs FLEX 10KA with one-time-programmable (OTP) configuration)

Notas de projeto

The EPF10K30ETC144-2 requires both a 2.5 V VCCINT rail (range 2.375 V to 2.625 V) and per-bank VCCIO rails at 2.5 V, 3.3 V, or 5.0 V. Use a low-dropout regulator such as an LT1764A-2.5 for VCCINT, rated for at least 500 mA peak during configuration. Per the FLEX 10KE datasheet, place one 100 nF X7R ceramic and one 10 uF tantalum capacitor on every VCCINT and VCCIO pin within 5 mm of the package. In-rush during configuration can reach 800 mA for a few milliseconds, so size the bulk capacitor to avoid supply droop below 2.375 V.

Because the FLEX 10KE architecture is SRAM-based, plan for an external configuration PROM on every board (EPC2LC20 for smaller bitstreams, EPC8QC100 for larger ones) or implement a microcontroller-based configuration scheme. Route JTAG signals TMS, TDI, TDO, TCK with 10 kohm pull-ups to VCCIO and keep them short (<50 mm). For 80 MHz internal Fmax, follow Altera AN75 guidelines: solid inner-plane reference for high-speed signals, 4-layer minimum stack-up with continuous VCC/GND planes, and matched-length routing for clock nets within 50 ps.

Three common pitfalls: (1) Driving 5 V signals into VCCIO=3.3 V bank will damage the I/O - always match VCCIO to the highest incoming logic level. (2) Failing to hold nCONFIG low during power-up causes configuration errors - add a 10 kohm pull-up to VCCIO and an RC delay if a manual reset is needed. (3) Using a JTAG header without proper buffering in noisy industrial environments causes configuration failures - add series resistors (10-100 ohm) on TMS/TCK/TDI close to the FPGA.

Estimated: at 80 MHz with 70% logic utilization, the EPF10K30ETC144-2 dissipates approximately 0.4 W. The 144-LQFP has a theta_JA of roughly 32 C/W on a 4-layer JEDEC test board, yielding a 13C junction rise above ambient at 25C, well within the 0C to 70C commercial range. Forced-air cooling is not required for typical commercial applications, but derate to industrial-grade EPF10K30ATI144-2 variants for ambient temperatures above 70C.
