Overview

The 10M02SCU169I7G is a compact MAX 10 FPGA from Altera (now Intel) featuring 2,000 logic elements and integrated flash memory. This device utilizes a single-chip, dual-configuration architecture, allowing for instant-on capability and reduced board space by eliminating the need for external configuration memory. Designed for industrial temperature ranges, it provides a cost-effective solution for system management, I/O expansion, and control plane applications.

Why Choose This Part

The primary advantage is the non-volatile integration, which provides instant-on functionality and enhanced security against bitstream interception. Its 169-UBGA package offers a high I/O density in a small 7x7mm footprint, making it ideal for space-constrained designs. Additionally, the MAX 10 architecture supports internal analog-to-digital converters and flexible voltage supply options.

Applications

System Management
Handling power-up sequencing, reset generation, and board monitoring logic in complex embedded systems.
I/O Expansion
Adding GPIO, UARTs, or proprietary bus interfaces to microcontrollers with limited peripheral counts.
Interface Bridging
Converting between different signaling standards or bus protocols such as LVDS, I2C, and SPI.
Industrial Control
Implementing low-latency motor control loops or sensor data pre-processing in industrial automation equipment.

Getting Started

Development is primarily done using the Intel Quartus Prime Design Software, which provides a full suite for synthesis, routing, and simulation. For hardware evaluation, the Intel MAX 10 FPGA Evaluation Kit is a standard starting point. Designers should use the Platform Designer tool for system-level integration and the Signal Tap logic analyzer for on-chip debugging.
