Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the EP3SL110F780C4N is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Base Product Number: EP3SL110 (identical across all qualified substitutes)
• Number of Logic Elements: 107,500 (functional capacity match)
• Total RAM Bits: 4,992,000 (memory capacity match)
• Number of I/O: 488 (pin count match)
• Package / Case: 780-FBGA (physical and electrical compatibility)
• Voltage - Supply: 0.86V ~ 1.15V (power supply compatibility)
• Operating Temperature Range: 0°C ~ 85°C (thermal operating envelope)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount (PCB assembly compatibility)
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant (environmental compliance match)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 3 (168 Hours) (handling and storage requirements)

Only components matching all these parameters across the Stratix® III L series are classified as direct substitutes. Variations in packaging type (tray vs. tube) do not affect functional or electrical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The EP3SL110F780C4G serves as a direct functional and electrical substitute for the EP3SL110F780C4N. Both components share identical logic element count, RAM capacity, I/O configuration, voltage specifications, and thermal operating range. The primary distinction is product status: the EP3SL110F780C4N is obsolete, while the EP3SL110F780C4G maintains active production status.

For new designs or system replacements, the EP3SL110F780C4G is the appropriate selection due to its active availability and continued manufacturer support. Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and identical moisture sensitivity specifications, ensuring equivalent handling and storage requirements. The packaging designation difference (780-FBGA vs. 780-BBGA, FCBGA) does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility on standard PCB assemblies.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can EP3SL110F780C4G directly replace EP3SL110F780C4N in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components are electrically and functionally identical across all critical parameters: logic element count, RAM capacity, I/O count, voltage supply range, operating temperature, and package footprint. Direct substitution is supported without design modification.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference (Obsolete vs. Active)?

A: Product status indicates manufacturer support and availability. The EP3SL110F780C4N is obsolete and no longer manufactured. The EP3SL110F780C4G is actively produced, ensuring supply chain availability and continued technical support from Intel.

Q: Are there packaging compatibility concerns between these parts?

A: Both parts use 780-FBGA packaging in a 29x29 footprint with surface mount configuration. The packaging designation variations (780-BBGA, FCBGA vs. 780-FBGA) refer to the same physical package and are compatible with identical PCB layouts and assembly processes.

Q: Do these parts have identical moisture sensitivity requirements?

A: Yes. Both components specify Moisture Sensitivity Level 3 with a 168-hour floor life. Identical handling, storage, and baking procedures apply to both parts.

Q: Is the voltage supply range identical between these substitutes?

A: Yes. Both the EP3SL110F780C4N and EP3SL110F780C4G operate within the 0.86V to 1.15V supply voltage range, ensuring compatibility with identical power delivery systems.
