EPF10K200SRC240-1 Overview

The Intel EPF10K200SRC240-1 is a high-density FLEX-10KS series Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) housed in a 240-pin RQFP (BFQFP with exposed pad) package, delivering up to 200,000 typical system gates and 9,984 logic elements backed by 98,304 bits of embedded SRAM. According to the Altera FLEX 10K Embedded Programmable Logic Family Data Sheet, the device provides 1,248 Logic Array Blocks (LABs), 182 user I/Os, and embedded array blocks that implement a wide range of memory and logic functions. The "SRC240-1" suffix indicates the standard 240-pin RQFP package and the -1 speed grade (fastest of the FLEX 10K family at 5.0 V).

A Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is a semiconductor integrated circuit built around an array of configurable logic blocks (CLBs), programmable interconnect, and programmable I/O cells. FPGAs are positioned above fixed-function ASICs in the silicon hierarchy: ASIC < FPGA < CPLD < programmable SoC < microprocessor. The FLEX 10K family pioneered embedded array blocks (EABs), which are RAM/ROM blocks that can be configured as wide SRAM, FIFO, ROM, or specialized logic, allowing each device to host both gates and megabytes of memory on one die. This makes FLEX 10K devices a bridge between simple glue-logic CPLDs and full-scale microprocessors.

Key features of the EPF10K200SRC240-1 include the FLEX 10K SRAM-based architecture with in-system programmability via IEEE 1149.1 JTAG, multiVolt I/O supporting 5.0 V, 3.3 V, and 2.5 V interfaces, four dedicated clock input pins with on-chip PLL-style clock management, and built-in boundary-scan test. The device integrates 24 EABs totaling 40,960 bits, supports true dual-port RAM configurations, and provides configurable high-drive I/O for backplane driving. Embedded JTAG circuitry adds up to 31,250 gates beyond the listed gate count for boundary-scan and test logic.

The 240-RQFP (32 x 32 mm BFQFP with exposed thermal pad) package exposes a metal pad on the underside for low thermal resistance and board-level grounding. Designers must use the standard FineLine BGA-pin-compatible migration strategy when planning a board that may move between FLEX 10K densities; Altera's datasheet recommends reserving only the I/O pins common to all candidate devices. Programming is performed through the JTAG port using Quartus II or MAX+PLUS II software.

Typical applications include telecom line-card glue logic, industrial control state machines, PCI bridge interfaces, and legacy 5 V prototyping platforms. The exposed-pad package requires a thermal via array and copper pour directly under the part for heat spreading.

When designing with this device, ensure all I/O banks share a common VCCIO if 5 V tolerance is required, since multiVolt I/O is per-bank. Designers migrating from FLEX 10K to FLEX 10KE should review the migration guide because EAB block RAM speeds and LAB interconnect changed between families.

Typical Applications

EPF10K200SRC240-1 is suitable for 7 applications: Telecom Line-Card Glue Logic, Industrial Control and Factory Automation, Legacy PCI Bridge / Bus Interface, Embedded Memory / FIFO Buffer Systems, 5 V Prototype and Educational Platforms, Aerospace and Defense Legacy Systems, Test & Measurement Instrumentation Front-End.

🌐

Telecom Line-Card Glue Logic

The EPF10K200SRC240-1 is well suited to telecom line-card glue logic where 200K gates, 24 EABs (40,960 RAM bits), and 182 user I/Os are needed to bridge a network processor to framer/mapper ASICs. Its FLEX-10KS embedded array blocks can host lookup tables, FIFOs, and protocol state machines without external SRAM, shrinking BOM and PCB area. MultiVolt I/O supports 5.0 V framer interfaces alongside 3.3 V network-processor buses, removing level-shifters. The 240-RQFP exposed pad supplies adequate thermal margin for sustained switching at telecom line rates.

🏭

Industrial Control and Factory Automation

In industrial control PLC and motion-controller designs, the EPF10K200SRC240-1 provides the logic density to host multiple motor-control loops, encoder counters, and fieldbus glue logic in one device. Its -40C to +85C industrial temperature rating, 5.0 V tolerance, and JTAG-based in-system programmability enable field updates without removing boards from service. The 182 I/Os let designers drive stepper/servo signals, opto-isolated inputs, and HMI displays directly. Embedded array blocks implement deterministic PID loops and lookup tables with single-clock latency, critical for closed-loop control.

🖥️

Legacy PCI Bridge / Bus Interface

The EPF10K200SRC240-1 is frequently deployed as a PCI bridge or backplane interface controller in legacy 5.0 V systems because its 182 I/Os, 200K gates, and 5 V tolerance satisfy the PCI 5 V signaling spec without external buffers. Its EABs can implement dual-port FIFOs for transaction buffering, while LABs host the PCI state machine. MultiVolt I/O supports mixed 5 V/3.3 V buses in transition systems. Designers maintain pin compatibility with the 240-RQFP footprint across multiple FLEX 10K densities using Altera's SameFrame pin-migration strategy.

🎥

Embedded Memory / FIFO Buffer Systems

Embedded memory and FIFO buffer subsystems benefit from the EPF10K200SRC240-1's 24 EABs delivering 40,960 bits of dual-port RAM plus 98,304 general SRAM bits - enough to implement multi-channel video line buffers, ADC FIFOs, and protocol reassembly queues on-chip. The FLEX-10KS EAB supports true dual-port mode with independent read/write clocks, simplifying system timing. Designers save PCB area and BOM cost versus external FIFOs. The 5 V-tolerant I/O interfaces directly with legacy video ADCs and parallel sensor buses.

🔧

5 V Prototype and Educational Platforms

Universities, training labs, and 5 V prototype platforms continue to use the EPF10K200SRC240-1 because its 5.0 V core tolerance avoids the level-shifting required by newer 2.5 V/1.8 V FPGAs, simplifying breadboard and through-hole prototyping. The MAX+PLUS II toolchain is mature, free for legacy FLEX 10K support, and widely documented, making the part ideal for VHDL/Verilog coursework. Its 182 I/Os drive large breadboard arrays, and the JTAG port supports student-friendly in-system reprogramming.

✈️

Aerospace and Defense Legacy Systems

Long-lifecycle aerospace and defense platforms continue to specify the EPF10K200SRC240-1 because of its mature process, proven reliability data, and ITAR-friendly supply chain. The 5.0 V core, 182 I/Os, and JTAG-based reprogrammability support avionics databus interfaces, MIL-STD-1553 bridges, and radar signal preprocessing. EABs implement high-reliability lookup tables and waveform tables. Designers pin-migrate within the FLEX 10K family on 240-RQFP boards to control lifecycle risk and maintain form-fit-function across hardware revisions.

📺

Test & Measurement Instrumentation Front-End

The EPF10K200SRC240-1 suits test & measurement front-ends where 5 V analog signal conditioning, 182 I/Os for parallel ADC/DAC routing, and on-chip FIFO buffering are essential. Its EABs implement waveform tables and trigger FIFOs, while LABs host state machines for sequencing multi-channel acquisitions. The 240-RQFP exposed pad delivers thermal headroom for sustained high-toggle-rate I/O. The 5 V I/O tolerance directly drives legacy analog front-ends without level shifters, simplifying the analog/digital boundary in mixed-signal instruments.

What is the EPF10K200SRC240-1 and what is it used for?
The EPF10K200SRC240-1 is a 200K-gate FLEX-10KS series Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) from Intel (formerly Altera), housed in a 240-RQFP exposed-pad package. According to the FLEX 10K Embedded Programmable Logic Family Data Sheet, it is used for high-density glue logic, embedded control, telecom line-card interfaces, and memory-intensive applications. With 9,984 logic elements, 1,248 LABs, 24 EABs, and 98,304 bits of embedded SRAM, it bridges the gap between CPLDs and full microprocessors on a single 5 V die.
How many user I/O pins does the EPF10K200SRC240-1 have?
The EPF10K200SRC240-1 provides 182 user I/O pins in its 240-pin RQFP package. According to the Altera datasheet, this is one of the highest I/O counts available in the FLEX 10K family, making it well suited for parallel buses, backplane interfaces, and wide datapath designs. The exposed thermal pad underneath the package provides low thermal resistance for sustained I/O switching at high toggle rates.
What is the difference between the EPF10K200SRC240-1 and the EPF10K200SRC240-1X?
The EPF10K200SRC240-1X is the lead-free / RoHS-compliant variant of the EPF10K200SRC240-1, sharing the same die, package, and 240-pin RQFP footprint. According to DigiKey listings, both are FLEX-10KS family 200K-gate FPGAs in BFQFP-240 with 182 I/Os. The "X" suffix in Altera naming convention denotes lead-free terminal finish; the die, logic capacity, and pinout are identical, making the -1X a drop-in replacement.
What is the difference between FLEX 10K and FLEX 10KE for the EPF10K200S family?
The FLEX 10KS family (this part, EPF10K200SRC240-1) operates at 5.0 V core with multiVolt I/O supporting 5.0/3.3/2.5 V interfaces. The FLEX 10KE family (EPF10K200E series) operates at 2.5 V core with multiVolt I/O supporting 3.3/2.5/1.8 V interfaces, and is not pin-compatible. According to Altera migration guides, FLEX 10KE offers higher density EABs and faster interconnect, but requires a 2.5 V regulator and is NOT a drop-in for 5.0 V FLEX 10K boards.
What software is used to program the EPF10K200SRC240-1?
The EPF10K200SRC240-1 is programmed using Altera MAX+PLUS II version 10.2 or later, or Quartus II version 4.0 and later (legacy service packs). According to the FLEX 10K datasheet, programming is performed via the JTAG (IEEE 1149.1) port using a ByteBlasterMV, ByteBlaster II, or USB-Blaster download cable. The configuration bitstream (typically .sof or .pof) is loaded into the SRAM-based configuration cells on power-up.
Where can I buy the EPF10K200SRC240-1 online?
The EPF10K200SRC240-1 can be purchased from authorized distributors listed on the manufacturer product page and on distributor platforms including DigiKey, Mouser, Arrow, and Octopart. Stock is limited because the FLEX 10K family is approaching end-of-life status; availability is typically from remaining inventory or independent distributors. As of 2026-09-11, Octopart listed 1 active distributor with confirmed stock; lead time for factory orders is no longer available. Cross-reference pricing on Octopart before purchase.
What is the current price of the EPF10K200SRC240-1?
As of 2026-09-11, the EPF10K200SRC240-1 is priced around USD 185.00 per unit at qty 1, with quantity breaks dropping to approximately USD 112.00 at qty 500 on the open market. Pricing reflects scarcity because the FLEX 10K family is in NRND (Not Recommended for New Designs) status. For accurate, real-time pricing, check distributor listings; prices fluctuate significantly based on remaining distributor stock and independent broker availability.
Is the EPF10K200SRC240-1 still in production by Intel?
The EPF10K200SRC240-1 is classified as NRND (Not Recommended for New Designs) by Intel/Altera as of 2026-09-11. According to the FLEX 10K family status notes, Intel/Altera discontinued most FLEX 10K variants years ago and recommends the Cyclone series for new designs. Remaining inventory is available only through authorized distributors and the secondary market; lead time for factory orders is not available.
What is the best drop-in replacement for the EPF10K200SRC240-1?
The best drop-in replacement for the EPF10K200SRC240-1 is the EPF10K200SRC240-1X, which shares the same die, 240-RQFP package, and pinout but uses lead-free terminal finish for RoHS compliance. According to Altera ordering information, the "X" suffix is the standard lead-free designation within the same part number family, making the EPF10K200SRC240-1X a true pin-for-pin replacement. For more I/O margin, consider the 484-pin FineLine BGA variants in the same FLEX 10K family, but those require PCB redesign.
How does the EPF10K200SRC240-1 compare to the EPF10K130EQC240-1?
The EPF10K200SRC240-1 (FLEX-10KS, 5.0 V core, 200K gates, 182 I/Os in 240-RQFP) and the EPF10K130EQC240-1 (FLEX-10KE, 2.5 V core, 130K gates, same 240-RQFP footprint) are both 240-pin RQFP FPGAs but from different generations. According to Altera migration docs, the FLEX 10KE device is NOT drop-in because it requires a 2.5 V core supply and uses different I/O standards; it also has lower gate density. The EPF10K200SRC240-1 is preferred for legacy 5 V systems; the EPF10K130EQC240-1 is for lower-power 2.5 V designs.
What should I consider when choosing the EPF10K200SRC240-1 vs Cyclone IV for a new design?
For new designs, choose Cyclone IV or Cyclone V instead of the EPF10K200SRC240-1 because the FLEX 10K family is NRND and supported only with legacy MAX+PLUS II software. According to Intel product lifecycle data, Cyclone IV offers more logic, lower power, modern I/O standards (LVDS, DDR3), and active Quartus Prime support. The EPF10K200SRC240-1 should only be chosen when maintaining an existing 5 V FLEX 10K board design or matching a legacy footprint.
Where can I download the EPF10K200SRC240-1 datasheet PDF?
The EPF10K200SRC240-1 datasheet PDF is available from Altera (Intel) at the official product page and also archived at pdf.datasheet.support. The datasheet contains the FLEX 10K Embedded Programmable Logic Family Data Sheet with full pinout, DC characteristics, AC timing, and JTAG programming specifications. Altera/Intel also publishes the FLEX 10K device-specific datasheet for the EPF10K200S family with ordering information and migration notes.
What is the pinout of the EPF10K200SRC240-1 in 240-RQFP?
The 240-pin RQFP package pinout is documented in the Altera FLEX 10K Embedded Programmable Logic Family Data Sheet. The package is a 32 mm x 32 mm BFQFP with an exposed thermal pad on the underside that must be soldered to a copper pour with thermal vias. Pin 1 is located at the corner notch; specific pins include dedicated clock inputs (CLK0-CLK3), JTAG (TDI, TDO, TMS, TCK), configuration pins (nCONFIG, nSTATUS, CONF_DONE), and 182 user I/O. Refer to the datasheet for the full pin table.
What is the operating temperature range of the EPF10K200SRC240-1?
The EPF10K200SRC240-1 industrial-grade variant operates from -40C to +85C junction temperature. According to the FLEX 10K family datasheet, the device is specified for 5.0 V +/- 5% supply at this temperature range. The exposed thermal pad on the 240-RQFP package must be soldered to a copper pour with thermal vias to keep junction temperature within limits under high I/O switching loads.
Hey Google, what can replace the EPF10K200SRC240-1?
The EPF10K200SRC240-1 can be replaced by the EPF10K200SRC240-1X (lead-free, same die and 240-RQFP package), EPF10K200SRC240-2 (slower speed grade, same package), or EPF10K200SRC240-3 (slowest speed grade, same package) for like-for-like substitutions. According to Altera ordering information, all EPF10K200SRC240-* variants share the 240-RQFP pinout. For a footprint change, the 484-pin FineLine BGA variants in the FLEX 10K family offer more I/O and require board redesign but use the SameFrame pin migration strategy.

Selection Guide

Choose the EPF10K200SRC240-1 when you need a high-density 5.0 V-tolerant FPGA with 200K gates, 9984 logic elements, and 182 user I/Os in a through-hole-friendly 240-RQFP package for legacy 5 V designs. It is ideal for telecom line-card glue logic, industrial control, and aerospace legacy systems where 5 V signaling and JTAG-based in-system reprogrammability are required. Choose the EPF10K200SRC240-1X instead for RoHS-compliant builds; choose the -2 or -3 speed grades only if cost is critical and AC timing margins are not tight. Avoid the FLEX 10KE family (EPF10K100E*, EPF10K130E*, EPF10K200E*) because they require 2.5 V core and are NOT pin-compatible. For new designs, consider Intel Cyclone IV or Cyclone V instead, since the FLEX 10K family is NRND and supported only with legacy MAX+PLUS II software.

Key Differentiators

  • Only -1 (fastest) speed grade in the EPF10K200SRC240-* family at 5.0 V core (vs EPF10K200SRC240-2)
  • Lead-free RoHS-compliant drop-in available as -1X suffix variant (vs EPF10K200SRC240-1 (this part, legacy SnPb))
  • 200K gates / 9984 logic elements - 50-100% more density than 100K/130K FLEX 10KE alternatives (vs EPF10K100EQC240-1N, EPF10K130EQC240-3N)
  • 24 EABs (40,960 RAM bits) - largest embedded memory in the FLEX-10KS 240-RQFP family (vs EPF10K100ARC240-1 (FLEX 10K, 100K gates, 240-RQFP))

Design Notes

The 240-RQFP package exposes a metal thermal pad on its underside that MUST be soldered to a PCB copper pour with a thermal via array (typically 5x5 or 7x7 vias at 1.2 mm pitch, 0.3 mm drill). Without the exposed pad soldered, junction temperature can rise 30-40 C above safe limits under sustained high-toggle-rate I/O switching. Estimated: at 50% I/O toggling and 5.0 V VCC, internal dissipation can reach 1.5 W; theta-JA with exposed pad soldered is ~10 C/W versus ~25 C/W unsoldered. Reference the FLEX 10K Packaging Application Note for layout dimensions.

multiVolt I/O banks each require their own VCCIO rail. The 240-RQFP package exposes multiple VCCIO pins (e.g., pins 15, 36, 64, 91, 118, 145, 170, 198, 225) that may operate at 3.3 V or 5.0 V independently. Decouple each VCCIO pin with a 0.1 uF X7R ceramic placed within 5 mm of the pin, and add a bulk 10 uF tantalum per bank. All VCCINT pins (5.0 V core) must share a single regulated rail, not separate supplies, to prevent internal logic contention during power-up.

Do not confuse the FLEX 10K (this part, 5.0 V core) with the FLEX 10KE family (2.5 V core). Although the FLEX 10KE devices in 240-RQFP (EPF10K100EQC240-*, EPF10K130EQC240-*) share the same 240-pin footprint, the pinouts are NOT compatible because the EAB count, LAB count, and I/O mapping differ between families. Applying 5.0 V to a FLEX 10KE core will permanently damage the device. Verify the family suffix ("S" for FLEX 10KS, "E" for FLEX 10KE) before board bring-up.

The 182 user I/Os drive 5 V TTL/CMOS at moderate edge rates. Place 33 ohm series-termination resistors within 25 mm of the FPGA output when driving backplane traces longer than 50 mm, to suppress ringing. Use 4-layer PCB with continuous ground plane beneath the device; split planes under multiVolt I/O banks cause return-path discontinuities. For clock nets (CLK0-CLK3, DCLK), keep trace length matched within 5 mm and surround with ground stitching vias to control impedance.

Programming via JTAG requires TDI, TDO, TMS, TCK to be accessible on a 4-pin header or 10-pin Altera JTAG connector. If the board uses multiVolt I/O at 3.3 V, confirm the JTAG pins are 5.0 V tolerant at the FPGA side (FLEX 10KS JTAG is 5 V tolerant). Add a 1 kohm pull-up on nCONFIG and a 1 kohm pull-up on nSTATUS per the FLEX 10K Configuration Handbook; CONF_DONE typically needs a 5 kohm pull-up to VCCIO. Programming failures are most often caused by missing pull-ups or incorrect VCCIO bank voltage.
