AGILEX 5 Migration issue

Based upon Agilex device overview the A5E 008B, A5E 013B & A5E 028B are meant to be compatible and "migratable" as shown here 

However when I tried to choose A5EC008BM16AI4S as my current device the only compatible device for migration available was A5EC013BM16AI4S however A5EC028BM16AI4S was not ? I am currently using Quartus Prime 25.1.0 Build 129 03/26/2025 SC Pro Edition !

      Hello Eza,


      I have verified that the same findings were found in the latest Quartus version.

      I am checking this with the internal team to confirm. This could be a document discrepancy.

       

      I will update you once got any more findings.

    Hello Eza,

     

    After further checking, this is an expected behavior in the Quartus Migration Window. The migration between A5EC008BM16A and A5EC028BM16A falls under conditional migration scenario, where this migration involves different transceiver bank counts as below screenshot:

     

     

    Hence, it has impact on board design requirement. That is the reason it is falls under conditional migration. Pin Migration Window in Quartus only will list the devices that falls under vertical migration.

     

    I hope this information clarifies you.
