MPN: EP20K200CQ208C7ES ✗ Son Kullanım ZamanıEP20K200CQ208C7ES Genel Bakış
An FPGA is a semiconductor device containing configurable logic blocks and programmable interconnect that can implement arbitrary digital logic after manufacturing. In the hierarchy of programmable logic, the EP20K200 belongs to FPGA devices, which in turn are part of the larger programmable logic device (PLD) family; APEX 20KC adds embedded memory, phase-locked loops, and high-density routing for system-on-chip integration. The part is positioned between earlier FLEX/ACEX families and later Stratix/Arria families, and is supported by Altera/Intel Quartus development tools.
Key features of the EP20K200CQ208C7ES include 8,320 logic elements for medium-density gate-array replacement, 136 user I/O pins in the 208-pin PQFP package, and a 1.8 V core supply, which lowers dynamic power compared with older 2.5 V and 3.3 V programmable logic. The 0.15 um process enables high integration and competitive performance, and the C7 speed grade supports 375.94 MHz internal operation in many datapath designs. The APEX 20KC architecture also provides embedded memory blocks that can implement FIFOs and RAM without external devices.
From an architecture standpoint, APEX 20KC devices use a lookup-table based logic fabric, with multiple I/O banks supporting popular voltage standards, PLLs for clock management, and a chain-based configuration scheme compatible with Altera passive and active serial configuration. The CQ208 package exposes the 136 user I/O in a fine-pitch quad flat package, making it easier to route, probe, and assemble than high-pin BGA packages. As an ES-suffix part, C7ES likely represents an early-released engineering-sample version of the C7 commercial speed grade found in legacy stock channels.
Typical applications for EP20K200CQ208C7ES include telecommunications protocol bridging, video/image processing, DSP front-end functions, ASIC prototyping, industrial control, and network test instruments. The combination of 136 I/O and 1.8 V low-power core in PQFP-208 fits systems requiring moderate interface width in a package that is inspectable with conventional AOI equipment.
Designers using this device should confirm configuration voltage levels, I/O bank standards, and pin assignments against the APEX 20K family pin table before board fabrication. Because APEX 20K is obsolete, verify date code, qualified stock, and ES sample status with the supplier.

Tipik Uygulamalar
EP20K200CQ208C7ES için uygundur 6 uygulamas: High-Speed Networking and Telecom Line Cards, Video and Image Processing, ASIC Prototyping and Emulation, Industrial Control and Factory Automation, Medical Diagnostics and Imaging Front-Ends, Aerospace, Defense, and Rugged Computing.
High-Speed Networking and Telecom Line Cards
The EP20K200CQ208C7ES fits line-card bridging, time-slot interchange, and packet classification tasks where 136 I/O can connect to legacy backplanes or external PHYs. Its 375.94 MHz internal clock and 1.8 V APEX 20KC fabric provide enough timing margin for 50-100 MHz parallel data paths, while embedded memory blocks reduce external FIFO count. In service, the FPGA sits between a framer/MAC and a host bus, using simple state machines to align data. The PQFP-208 package enables board assembly without high-density BGA vias, useful for four- or six-layer telecom boards. However, designers must account for obsolete status and should verify timing closure with Quartus II for the target line rate.
Önerilen
Video and Image Processing
For video/image processing, the EP20K200CQ208C7ES provides 136 user I/O pins that can handle parallel RGB, YUV, or camera-link buses, and its embedded memory can implement small line buffers and window registers. The 375.94 MHz internal clock is sufficient for line-locked pixel processing at common 24-bit video rates, while the 0.15 um 1.8 V process keeps switching power moderate. The PQFP-208 package is practical for video capture cards where BGA routing is unnecessary. Designers should place the FPGA beside the ADC/decoder and use PLLs to align pixel clocks. Because the device is obsolete, confirm that the logic image still fits and that spare I/O margin exists if video bus width increases.
Önerilen
ASIC Prototyping and Emulation
The EP20K200CQ208C7ES is useful for ASIC prototyping because the APEX 20KC architecture is synthesis-friendly and the 208-pin PQFP allows easy debugging with standard logic analyzers. Its 8,320 logic elements map a moderate-size synchronous ASIC partition, while 136 I/O pins connect to external memories, bus transceivers, or a second FPGA. Because the C7 speed bin supports 375.94 MHz internal clocking, the prototype can run at near-target speeds for many control-dominated blocks. Designers should partition the ASIC into clock-domain islands and preserve reset behavior. The obsolete status of this part makes it less attractive for new production ASIC prototypes than current FPGAs, but it remains workable for legacy IP validation.
Önerilen
Industrial Control and Factory Automation
The EP20K200CQ208C7ES can implement multi-axis motor-control logic, I/O scanning, and industrial protocol bridging in a 136-I/O PQFP package. The 1.8 V core with 0.15 um process provides lower core power than earlier programmable logic, and the 375.94 MHz clock allows fast state machines for encoder or PWM generation. Because PQFP packages are easier to inspect than BGAs, this device is a practical fit for industrial boards with conservative assembly processes. However, industrial environments may require wider temperature range, so designers should verify whether the C7 commercial grade is sufficient or choose an industrial I7-suffix device. Long-term supply should also be considered because APEX 20K is obsolete; maintain a last-time-buy stock or prepare a replacement design.
Önerilen
Medical Diagnostics and Imaging Front-Ends
In medical diagnostic systems such as ultrasound beamformers or imaging front-ends, the EP20K200CQ208C7ES can handle moderate data preprocessing, timing control, and sensor interface sequencing. The 136 I/O pins provide connections to ADCs, AFEs, and memory devices, while the internal clock rate supports real-time acquisition in many diagnostic subsystems. Designers benefit from the deterministic timing of an FPGA and the easy pin assignment when interfacing multiple sensors. Although this FPGA is not certified for medical safety, it can be used in non-safety-critical processing chains if the system obtains appropriate certification. Because of the obsolete supply chain, medical manufacturers should qualify a long-term alternate or secure sufficient inventory for the product lifecycle.
Önerilen
Aerospace, Defense, and Rugged Computing
The EP20K200CQ208C7ES can be used in avionics interfaces, radar signal conditioning, or mission-data recorders where medium-density FPGA logic and 136 I/O are needed in a solderable QFP package. The 0.15 um 1.8 V process is beneficial for power-constrained convection-cooled enclosures, and the 375.94 MHz internal clock allows complex cryptographic or protocol state machines to run at practical rates. For rugged applications, a commercial C7 part may need screening or thermal evaluation, and military-temperature variants should be verified using the I-suffix ordering code. Since Altera/Intel no longer manufactures this APEX 20K family, defense programs should assess DMSMS (Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages) risk and maintain an approved alternate or second-source strategy.

Tasarım Notları
Treat the EP20K200CQ208C7ES as an obsolete FPGA. Before starting a new design, verify that Intel/Altera still supports the configuration flow in your chosen Quartus II version and that you have enough residual stock or a trusted legacy distributor. The ES suffix may identify early engineering material rather than a fully production-qualified device, so request the device marking, date code, qualification status, and any available test reports from the supplier. Do not assume that a C7ES unit can be assembled under the same PCN/qualification evidence as a standard C7 unit.
Estimated core power scales with logic utilization and clock frequency; there is no detailed thermal model in the verified source data. For an APEX 20KC 1.8 V core device, use a low-noise 1.8 V supply for VCCINT and confirm the required VCCIO rail level from the pin plan, typically 2.5 V or 3.3 V depending on I/O bank. Place 100 nF ceramic capacitors near every power pin and add bulk capacitance at the regulator output. If the design runs many I/O simultaneously, estimate power by multiplying core current, I/O current, and voltage, then verify with Intel/Altera power estimation rather than relying on this note.
The 208-pin PQFP has leads on all four sides; keep the analog and digital I/O banks separated and use a solid ground plane under the device. Reference the APEX 20K family pin table before finalizing every pin assignment because FPGA pin flexibility is limited by package bond-out and dedicated configuration pins. For legacy ES material, inspect leads for oxidation or coplanarity before reflow because long storage can degrade solderability. Use an AOI-friendly solder paste stencil and ensure the thermal pad, if present on the BFQFP variant, is connected to the appropriate thermal/ground plane.
