EPF6024AQC2403 Tóm tắt

The Intel (formerly Altera) EPF6024AQC240-3 is a member of the FLEX 6000 family of SRAM-based Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), delivering 24,000 typical gates and 1,960 logic elements in a 240-pin Fine-pitch Ball Grid Array / Quad Flat Pack (240-BFQFP) package. The device operates at 3.3V core supply using 0.42 µm CMOS technology with a maximum internal frequency of 142.86 MHz, providing 199 user I/O pins for high-density glue-logic and bus-interface applications.

What is an FPGA? A Field-Programmable Gate Array is a programmable logic device (PLD) containing an array of configurable logic blocks (CLBs), programmable interconnect, and I/O cells, all of which are defined after manufacture by a bitstream loaded into on-chip SRAM. FPGAs occupy the middle ground between discrete logic ICs and application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), offering ASIC-like density with mask-programmable-like time-to-market. The FLEX 6000 family specifically targets high-volume, low-cost glue-logic, bus bridging, and standard gate-array replacement designs.

Key features of the EPF6024AQC240-3 include 1,960 logic elements (LEs), 24 Kbits of embedded RAM, 199 maximum user I/O pins, multi-voltage I/O support (3.3V/5V tolerant), an in-system programmability (ISP) interface via the passive serial or JTAG configuration scheme, and an industrial operating temperature range. The device implements a 4-input look-up table (LUT)-based architecture with fast-carry chains for arithmetic functions and dedicated clock networks that simplify high-speed state-machine implementation.

The EPF6024AQC240-3 architecture uses an SRAM-based configuration cell, meaning the design must be reloaded at every power-up from a serial PROM or system memory. The 0.42 µm process node provides mature, well-characterized timing closure at 3.3V core supply and supports the IEEE 1149.1 (JTAG) boundary-scan test standard. The 240-BFQFP package (body size 32 mm x 32 mm, 0.5 mm lead pitch) is suitable for through-hole-style surface mounting on 1.0 mm-thick PCBs.

Typical applications include telecom line-card glue logic, industrial control bus bridges (PCI-to-ISA, ISA-to-PCMCIA), peripheral interface controllers (UART, I2C, SPI multiplexing), legacy system modernization, and education laboratory platforms. The 199 user I/O count accommodates designs that previously required multiple CPLDs or low-density ASICs.

When designing with this part, plan the configuration memory separately - the SRAM cells require an external EPC1/EPC2 configuration PROM or a microcontroller to load the bitstream at every power-on. Verify JTAG chain integrity on first prototypes; FLEX 6000 devices are sensitive to VCC ramp times below the 100 µs minimum specified in the datasheet.

This page consolidates distributor pricing, drop-in package alternatives from the same FLEX 6000 family, and application guidance not found in the standalone datasheet.

Ứng dụng tiêu biểu

EPF6024AQC2403 phù hợp cho 7 Áp dụngs: Telecom Line-Card Glue Logic, PCI-to-ISA Bus Bridge, Industrial Control State Machine, Peripheral Interface Multiplexer, Legacy System Modernization, FPGA Education Laboratory Platform, Display Controller / Video Sync Generator.

🌐

Telecom Line-Card Glue Logic

The EPF6024AQC240-3 is well-suited for telecom line-card glue-logic consolidation, where its 1,960 logic elements and 199 user I/Os allow designers to replace dozens of discrete 74-series TTL chips with a single programmable device. Its 3.3V core supply and 5V-tolerant I/O banks interface cleanly with legacy T1/E1 framer chips and backplane transceivers. The FLEX 6000 fast-carry chain delivers >100 MHz arithmetic for protocol-header CRC generation on the line side. Designers should pair the FPGA with an EPC2 configuration PROM for hot-swap-capable line cards requiring in-system reconfiguration.

🖥️

PCI-to-ISA Bus Bridge

The EPF6024AQC240-3's 199 user I/Os are sufficient to implement a full PCI (32-bit, 33 MHz) target interface plus a complete ISA bus master/slave interface within a single device, eliminating the need for a separate PCI controller ASIC. Its 142.86 MHz internal frequency comfortably exceeds PCI's 33 MHz spec, and the multi-voltage I/O banks cleanly bridge the 5V ISA bus to the 3.3V PCI bus. The 24 Kbits of embedded RAM double as FIFO buffers for write-posting transactions. Pin-compatibility with EPF6024AQC240-2 lets designers step up timing margin without re-laying out the PCB.

🏭

Industrial Control State Machine

Industrial controllers benefit from the EPF6024AQC240-3's combination of 1,960 LEs and 142.86 MHz Fmax, which allows designers to consolidate multiple state machines (motor sequencing, sensor debouncing, fault handlers) into one device. The 240-BFQFP package with 199 I/Os provides ample headroom for 32-bit sensor buses plus parallel encoder inputs. The SRAM-based configuration simplifies field firmware updates via JTAG, which is essential in industrial environments where downtime is costly. Designers should add external watchdog supervision since FLEX 6000 does not include a built-in watchdog block.

🔧

Peripheral Interface Multiplexer

The EPF6024AQC240-3 excels at high-channel-count UART, SPI, and I2C multiplexing for embedded systems that need to route multiple peripheral buses to a single processor. Its 199 I/Os easily support 8-16 UART channels plus chip-select expansion for SPI peripherals. The dedicated fast-carry chain handles baud-rate generation down to 50 baud without external divider chips. The 3.3V core with 5V-tolerant I/Os bridges cleanly between modern MCUs and legacy 5V peripherals, removing the need for level-shifters on every line.

Legacy System Modernization

Designers modernizing legacy 5V systems that use dozens of 74LS/74F TTL chips can use the EPF6024AQC240-3 as a one-chip replacement for the entire glue-logic cluster, preserving the existing PCB while reducing part count, inventory SKUs, and power consumption. The 199 user I/Os and 3.3V/5V-tolerant I/O banks absorb legacy bus widths without buffering. Designers can re-use the original 74-series logic symbols by importing EDIF netlists into the Quartus II design tool, then verify timing against the original worst-case propagation delays before tape-out.

FPGA Education Laboratory Platform

The EPF6024AQC240-3 is widely used in university digital-design laboratories as the target FPGA on Altera/Intel education boards because its 1,960 LEs and 199 I/Os provide enough headroom for senior-project complexity while remaining cost-effective for classroom deployment. Students learn SRAM-based configuration by manually loading bitstreams via the JTAG port, and the 240-BFQFP package is mechanically robust enough to survive repeated lab handling. Quartus II Web Edition (free) supports the device, removing per-seat licensing cost for educational institutions.

Display Controller / Video Sync Generator

The EPF6024AQC240-3's 142.86 MHz Fmax and 24 Kbits of embedded RAM are sufficient to implement a low-resolution VGA / NTSC sync generator for kiosks, instrumentation displays, and legacy industrial HMIs. Its 199 I/Os drive 24-bit color LCD panels directly without an external frame-buffer ASIC. The SRAM-based configuration lets designers swap resolution tables by reloading bitstreams from a microcontroller, supporting multi-mode displays (VGA + NTSC) on a single hardware platform.

What is the logic capacity of the EPF6024AQC240-3?
The EPF6024AQC240-3 contains 1,960 logic elements (LEs) and is rated for 24,000 typical gates, according to the FLEX 6000 datasheet. This makes it suitable for medium-density glue-logic, bus-interface bridging, and state-machine consolidation designs that previously required multiple CPLDs. Each LE is built around a 4-input look-up table (LUT) with a fast-carry chain for arithmetic operations.
How many user I/O pins does the EPF6024AQC240-3 provide?
The EPF6024AQC240-3 offers up to 199 user I/O pins in the 240-BFQFP package. Three of the 240 package pins are reserved for VCC, GND, and dedicated configuration signals (nCONFIG, nSTATUS, CONF_DONE), leaving 199 general-purpose I/Os that support 3.3V LVTTL/LVCMOS with multi-voltage (5V-tolerant) interfacing on selected banks per the FLEX 6000 datasheet.
What is the maximum operating frequency of the EPF6024AQC240-3?
The EPF6024AQC240-3 supports a maximum internal frequency of 142.86 MHz in the -3 speed grade per the FLEX 6000 datasheet. Real-world toggle rates depend on routing and fan-out; conservative designs typically run at 80-100 MHz for state machines and 60 MHz for 16-bit counters using the dedicated fast-carry chain.
Does the EPF6024AQC240-3 require an external configuration PROM?
Yes, the EPF6024AQC240-3 uses SRAM-based configuration cells which are volatile, so it must be reconfigured at every power-up using an external EPC1, EPC2, or EPC4 serial configuration PROM, or via a microcontroller that emulates the passive-serial configuration protocol per the FLEX 6000 handbook.
Is the EPF6024AQC240-3 RoHS compliant?
No, the EPF6024AQC240-3 is NOT RoHS compliant per the distributor listings - it contains lead as part of its 240-BFQFP package finish. For RoHS-compliant designs requiring the same FLEX 6000 family logic capacity, consider migrating to the EPF6024AFC256 package variant or to a newer Cyclone-series device per Intel's product migration guide.
What is the difference between EPF6024AQC240-3 and EPF6024AQC240-2?
The EPF6024AQC240-3 is the mid-tier speed grade, while the EPF6024AQC240-2 is a faster speed grade with improved Fmax timing margins. Both share the identical 240-BFQFP package, 1,960 LEs, 199 user I/Os, and 3.3V core supply, making them fully pin-compatible drop-in replacements - choose -2 for higher throughput, -3 for cost optimization.
What is the difference between EPF6024AQC240-3 and EPF6024AQC240-4?
The EPF6024AQC240-4 is a slower speed grade than the EPF6024AQC240-3, with reduced Fmax but typically lower pricing. Both share the identical 240-BFQFP package footprint and silicon, making them fully pin-compatible. Choose -3 for balanced cost/performance, or -4 when the design meets timing at the slower grade to save cost.
Where can I buy the EPF6024AQC240-3 today?
As of 2026-09-12, the EPF6024AQC240-3 is listed as obsolete by Intel but remains available in distributor inventory - Heisener lists in stock, Jotrin and Altera-Price list 2,759 pieces, and DigiKey typically ships same-day for small quantities. For new designs, consider migrating to the Cyclone IV or Cyclone V families for long-term availability.
What is the price of the EPF6024AQC240-3?
As of 2026-09-12, the EPF6024AQC240-3 lists at $54.27 per unit at Heisener for qty-1, while Altera-Price lists $10.30 at qty 1 and $9.70 at qty 200+. Octopart aggregates 14 distributors and is the recommended tool for the lowest live market price. Prices fluctuate weekly given the part's obsolete status.
What is the lead time for the EPF6024AQC240-3?
As of 2026-09-12, the EPF6024AQC240-3 ships immediately from stock at most distributors (Heisener, Jotrin, Altera-Price). Because the part is obsolete, long-term supply is not guaranteed - Intel recommends migrating to Cyclone-series devices for new production. For end-of-life purchases, confirm the date code with the distributor before placing orders.
EPF6024AQC240-3 vs EPF6024AQC208-3 - which is better for a 180-I/O design?
For a 180-I/O design, the EPF6024AQC240-3 is the correct choice because it provides 199 user I/Os in a 240-BFQFP package, while the EPF6024AQC208-3 has only 171 user I/Os in a 208-pin PQFP - insufficient headroom. Both share the same 1,960 LEs, 24 Kbits RAM, and 3.3V core, so electrical compatibility is preserved when migrating between packages per the FLEX 6000 datasheet.
What is the best drop-in replacement for the EPF6024AQC240-3?
The best drop-in replacement for the EPF6024AQC240-3 is the EPF6024AQC240-2 (faster speed grade) or EPF6024AQC240-4 (slower speed grade) - all three share the identical 240-BFQFP package, pinout, and silicon. For RoHS designs, the EPF6024AFC256-3 in 256-pin FBGA is functionally similar but requires PCB re-layout per the FLEX 6000 datasheet pin migration guide.
When should I choose the EPF6024AQC240-3 over the EPF6016AQC208-3?
Choose the EPF6024AQC240-3 over the EPF6016AQC208-3 when your design needs more than the EPF6016's 1,320 logic elements / 16K gates, or when you need more than the EPF6016's 171 user I/Os. The EPF6024 provides 1,960 LEs and 199 I/Os. If your design fits within 1,320 LEs, the EPF6016AQC208-3 is more cost-effective per design.

Ghi chú thiết kế

Estimated: the EPF6024AQC240-3 core ICC (VCCINT = 3.3V) is typically 50-200 mA depending on toggle rate and utilization. For a fully utilized 1,960-LE design switching at 100 MHz on 50% of signals, ICC_INT is approximately 200 mA per the FLEX 6000 datasheet ICC vs. frequency curves. The I/O banks (VCCIO1-4) draw additional current proportional to output loading and switching frequency - budget an extra 50-100 mA per bank at 100 MHz with 50 pF loads. Add 100 nF decoupling per VCC pin and a single 47 uF bulk capacitor within 25 mm of the package.

The FLEX 6000 SRAM configuration is volatile - the device loses its bitstream on every power-down and must be reloaded by an external EPC1, EPC2, or EPC4 serial configuration PROM at every power-up. Without the PROM, the FPGA will not function. The CONF_DONE pin will stay low if configuration fails. Verify the configuration clock (DCLK) frequency does not exceed the maximum specified in the FLEX 6000 datasheet - typically 33 MHz in passive-serial mode.

Estimated: at maximum core current (200 mA at 3.3 V), the EPF6024AQC240-3 dissipates approximately 0.66 W internally plus I/O switching losses. The 240-BFQFP package has a typical theta_JA of approximately 25-30 C/W on a 4-layer JEDEC test board with 0.5 m/s airflow. Junction temperature rise is roughly 17-20 C above ambient, which keeps Tj well below the 125 C limit. For high-utilization industrial designs at 70 C ambient, verify with a thermal probe on the top-side package surface during worst-case utilization.
