EP610LI-25

Programmable Logic Device Pld Overview

The EP610LI-25 is a high-performance field-programmable gate array (FPGA) manufactured by Altera, now part of Intel. This specific variant from Rochester Electronics represents a qualified source for this legacy component. It features a dense logic architecture with 10,000 system gates and supports up to 432 I/O pins. The device operates at a maximum frequency of 250 MHz and utilizes a 0.18-micron process technology. It is housed in a 496-ball Ball Grid Array (BGA) package, designed for complex digital signal processing and high-speed interface applications requiring significant programmable logic resources.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Part Context

Rochester Electronics specializes in sourcing and distributing obsolete and discontinued electronic components. The EP610LI-25 was originally produced by Altera. Rochester Electronics provides this part as a qualified alternative for designs that can no longer be sourced through original manufacturer channels, ensuring continuity for existing hardware deployments.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-to-pin replacements may be limited due to the legacy nature of the 0.18-micron Altera architecture. Designers should evaluate newer Intel/Altera FPGA families such as the Cyclone or Arria series, though these will require schematic and layout modifications. Verification of timing constraints and I/O voltage levels is essential when migrating to modern alternatives.
