EPF6024AQI208-3N Visão geral

The Altera EPF6024AQI208-3N is a member of the FLEX 6000 family of Field Programmable Gate Arrays, delivering 24,000 gates, 1,960 logic elements (cells), and a maximum internal operating frequency of 142.86 MHz in a 208-pin Plastic Quad Flat Pack (PQFP/BFQFP) package. Manufactured on a 0.42 µm CMOS process with a 3.3 V core supply, the device combines a register-rich, look-up-table (LUT) based OptiFLEX architecture with 171 user I/O pins, making it suited for high-volume gate array replacement and rapid prototyping flows.

A Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is a type of programmable logic device (PLD) that allows engineers to implement arbitrary digital logic via a configurable array of logic blocks, routing channels, and I/O cells. Within the broader taxonomy, the FLEX 6000 sits as a low-cost, register-rich mid-density FPGA, positioned between simple CPLDs and higher-density SRAM-based FPGAs such as the FLEX 10K and APEX families. The FLEX 6000 family was specifically architected as an ideal low-cost programmable alternative to high-volume gate array applications, enabling fast design changes during prototyping and design testing.

Key features include the OptiFLEX architecture for high utilization, multiVolt I/O support for interfacing with 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V buses, in-system programmability through a dedicated configuration interface, and JTAG boundary-scan test support per IEEE 1149.1. The "3N" speed grade designation places this part in a specific performance bin optimized for typical commercial industrial temperature ranges. With 1,960 logic elements and abundant user I/O, the EPF6024AQI208-3N delivers substantial logic capacity for glue logic, bus bridging, and parallel DSP pre/post-processing tasks.

From an architectural perspective, the FLEX 6000 family employs continuous, segmented routing interconnect combined with dedicated carry chains and cascade chains that accelerate arithmetic and wide datapath operations. The 0.42 µm four-metal-layer CMOS process delivers a balance of die density, static power, and 3.3 V tolerance that was industry-leading at product introduction.

Typical applications include industrial control glue logic, telecommunications interface bridging, prototyping of ASIC designs, parallel peripheral controllers, and embedded system bus arbiters. The 208-pin PQFP package and 171 user I/O pins enable direct interfacing with wide parallel buses such as PCI, ISA, and external memory buses.

When designing with this device, pay close attention to configuration mode selection and the configuration device interface, since the FLEX 6000 family supports both passive serial and passive parallel configuration schemes with EPC configuration memories. Designers should also verify supply decoupling on every VCCINT and VCCIO pin per the FLEX 6000 Device Family datasheet recommendations.

Aplicações típicas

EPF6024AQI208-3N é adequado para 6 aplicaçãos: Industrial Control Glue Logic, Telecommunications Interface Bridging, ASIC Prototyping and Emulation, Peripheral Bus Controllers, Embedded System Bus Arbiters and Bridges, Test and Measurement Front-End Logic.

🏭

Industrial Control Glue Logic

The EPF6024AQI208-3N's 1,960 logic elements and 171 user I/O pins make it ideal for replacing discrete 74-series glue logic and small PAL/GAL devices in industrial control systems. Its multiVolt I/O (2.5/3.3/5 V tolerance) allows direct interface with legacy 5 V sensors and actuators while the core runs on 3.3 V, eliminating level-shifters. Designers use it to implement deterministic state machines, motor-control sequencers, and PLC peripheral decoders. Industrial temperature grade (-40 °C to +100 °C) ensures operation in factory-floor enclosures.

🌐

Telecommunications Interface Bridging

With 142.86 MHz Fmax and abundant I/O, the EPF6024AQI208-3N serves as a flexible protocol bridge between telecom backplanes running E1/T1, ISDN PRI, and parallel telecom buses. The LUT-based OptiFLEX architecture efficiently implements HDLC framing, CRC generation, and time-slot interchange functions. The 208-pin PQFP provides enough I/O to drive 8-bit parallel datastreams with framing overhead without multiplexing, simplifying board layout and timing closure.

🖥️

ASIC Prototyping and Emulation

Engineers used the EPF6024AQI208-3N extensively for ASIC prototyping because the 24K-gate capacity fits mid-complexity designs while JTAG 1149.1 boundary-scan provides real-time visibility into internal nodes. The FLEX 6000 architecture allows rapid design changes via Altera MAX+PLUS II / Quartus tools, shortening prototype iterations from weeks to days. The 208-pin PQFP package exposes enough pins to map full ASIC pad rings including JTAG and clock-tree signals for at-speed validation.

🔧

Peripheral Bus Controllers

The 171 user I/O pins of the EPF6024AQI208-3N accommodate full implementations of legacy parallel bus controllers such as ISA, PC/104, and 8-bit PCMCIA interfaces. Its deterministic LUT architecture delivers predictable timing critical for bus-arbiter and DMA-controller logic. The 0.42 µm CMOS process at 3.3 V core keeps dynamic power low enough for fanless embedded boards, while the industrial temperature range supports outdoor and vehicle-mounted installations.

🧩

Embedded System Bus Arbiters and Bridges

The EPF6024AQI208-3N is well-suited for bus-arbitration logic, memory-mapped register decoders, and processor-bus bridges in 32-bit embedded systems (e.g., 68k, PowerPC, ARM7 external-bus glue). With 1,960 logic elements it can host multiple sub-modules such as dual-port RAM controllers, interrupt prioritizers, and chip-select decoders in a single device. The 142.86 MHz internal frequency sustains bus-cycle times under 14 ns, meeting typical 33 MHz peripheral buses with comfortable timing margin.

📺

Test and Measurement Front-End Logic

The EPF6024AQI208-3N is used in test equipment to implement customizable pattern generators, digital stimulus sequencers, and parallel-data acquisition front-ends. Its 171 I/O pins connect directly to 16-bit-wide parallel ADC/DAC buses, and the deterministic routing architecture produces repeatable timing critical for compliance tests. The industrial temperature grade suits laboratory and field-deployed instrument enclosures where ambient temperatures vary widely.

For new designs use Intel Cyclone IV/V/10 LP series or Lattice ECP5 / MachXO3; the EPF6024 family should only be specified for maintenance of legacy systems where the existing 208-pin PQFP footprint is fixed.
What configuration memory should I use with EPF6024AQI208-3N?
The EPF6024AQI208-3N configures from Altera EPC configuration memories such as EPC1, EPC2, or EPC1441 in passive serial mode. Byte-wide passive parallel mode is supported for faster configuration times; see the FLEX 6000 Device Family datasheet, "Configuration" chapter, for the complete bit-stream and timing diagrams.
What is the input/output voltage compatibility of EPF6024AQI208-3N?
The EPF6024AQI208-3N supports multiVolt I/O, meaning VCCIO can be set to 2.5 V, 3.3 V, or 5 V while VCCINT remains at 3.3 V, allowing direct interface to mixed-voltage buses. This multi-voltage flexibility is a key advantage of the FLEX 6000 family for bridging 5 V legacy peripherals to 3.3 V processors.

Guia de seleção

Choose EPF6024AQI208-3N when you need the fastest speed grade (-3) of the FLEX 6000 family in a 208-pin PQFP, with industrial temperature range (-40 to +100 °C) and lead-free Pb-free finish. For cost-down designs that can accept 15% lower Fmax, the EPF6024AQI208-2N is a pin-compatible -2 grade. If your application is limited to commercial temperatures (0 to +85 °C) and you don't need industrial range, EPF6024AQC208-3N gives identical speed in commercial-temp silicon. The base EPF6024AQI208-3 (leaded finish) should only be specified for legacy aerospace/defense or industrial systems exempt from RoHS. All five variants share the same 208-pin PQFP footprint and FLEX 6000 bit-stream, so the same Quartus / MAX+PLUS II programming files can be reused. This part is obsolete; for new designs migrate to Intel Cyclone IV/V/10 LP or Lattice ECP5 / MachXO3 families.

Notas de projeto

Decouple every VCCINT and VCCIO pin with 0.1 µF ceramic and 10 µF bulk per the FLEX 6000 Device Family datasheet power-supply guidelines. The 0.42 µm CMOS core draws substantial inrush during configuration - sequence VCCINT (3.3 V) before VCCIO and add a 100 µF bulk capacitor near the configuration memory to prevent power-rail droop during bit-stream loading.

The 208-pin PQFP has 0.5 mm lead pitch and gull-wing leads - allocate at least 1 oz copper pours under the device for thermal spreading and ground return. Use a 4-layer PCB with dedicated VCC and GND planes; the FLEX 6000 family datasheet recommends matched impedance traces of 50 Ω single-ended for clock inputs.

Configure global clock buffers (CLK0/CLK1) with dedicated low-skew routing and place clock-input pins at package corners closest to the clock source. For high-speed designs exceeding 100 MHz, terminate clock traces with 33 Ω series resistors at the driver to dampen reflections on the relatively long PQFP bond-wire-to-pin path.

Do not confuse 'I' (Industrial temperature grade) with 'C' (Commercial) in the FLEX 6000 ordering code - the EPF6024AQI vs EPF6024AQC variants are NOT thermal drop-in equivalents. Also, the 'N' suffix indicates Pb-free finish; mixing leaded and lead-free PQFPs on the same board can cause assembly defects and tombstoning during reflow.
