Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the EP2AGX65DF29C4 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Logic Architecture: Identical number of logic elements (60,214) and LABs/CLBs (2,530)
• Memory Configuration: Identical total RAM bits (5,371,904)
• I/O Count: Identical number of I/O pins (364)
• Electrical Specifications: Identical supply voltage range (0.87V ~ 0.93V)
• Thermal Range: Identical operating temperature (0°C ~ 85°C)
• Package Geometry: Identical package type (780-BBGA, FCBGA) and footprint (780-FBGA 29x29)
• Mounting Technology: Identical surface mount configuration

The substitute part EP2AGX65DF29C4G maintains full functional and electrical equivalence while offering improved product status and compliance characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The EP2AGX65DF29C4G is the direct functional equivalent of the EP2AGX65DF29C4, with identical electrical and logical specifications. The primary distinction is product status: EP2AGX65DF29C4G is active, whereas EP2AGX65DF29C4 is obsolete. Additionally, EP2AGX65DF29C4G carries RoHS Compliant certification, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic components in regulated markets. The substitute part is supplied in Tray packaging, compared to Bulk packaging for the original part.

For new designs or procurement requiring long-term availability and regulatory compliance, EP2AGX65DF29C4G is the appropriate selection. Both parts are functionally interchangeable at the circuit level, with identical pinout, electrical performance, and thermal characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are EP2AGX65DF29C4 and EP2AGX65DF29C4G pin-compatible?
