Overview

The 10M02SCE144C8G is a compact MAX 10 FPGA featuring 2,000 logic elements and integrated dual-configuration flash memory. This device utilizes a single-core power supply and is designed for system management and control plane functions in a 144-EQFP package. It offers a balance of low power consumption and rapid 'instant-on' capability for industrial and commercial designs.

Why Choose This Part

This FPGA eliminates the need for external configuration flash, reducing PCB footprint and bill-of-materials cost. Its instant-on architecture ensures the device is operational within milliseconds, which is critical for system-critical control tasks. The 144-EQFP package provides 101 available I/O pins, offering significant flexibility for high-pin-count interfacing in a manageable form factor.

Applications

System Management
Managing power-up sequencing, reset generation, and monitoring of multi-rail voltage systems on complex circuit boards.
I/O Expansion
Providing additional UART, SPI, and I2C interfaces or general-purpose I/O for microcontrollers with limited pin counts.
Level Shifting
Bridging communication between devices operating at different logic levels thanks to its flexible I/O banks.
Interface Bridging
Converting legacy bus protocols to modern serial interfaces like SPI or I2C within a single chip.

Getting Started

To begin development, use the Intel Quartus Prime Lite Edition software, which supports the MAX 10 family without a paid license. Designers can use the Altera USB-Blaster II for programming via the JTAG interface. Evaluation boards like the MAX 10 FPGA Evaluation Kit provide a physical platform to verify RTL designs and test integrated ADC and internal flash features.
