New ContributorAlt for EP1K50TI144-2N
Nope, you are stuck with the EP1K50 series if all you have is a .pof file. Any temp grade, any speed grade will suffice.
You need the source code to migrate to any other device (or even a different size of the EP1K series) to do a recompile.
So unless you can come up with the source code you are going to be stuck sourcing EP1K50's from brokers.
New ContributorHello,
I only have the .pof code for my EP1K50TI144-2N,no source code,would I be able to go to a MAX10 without much issues?

Hello again,
Is that also the case for the
EPM7064STI100-7 CPLD?

The EPM7K series is a bit different, as there is a current production functional binary-compatible replacement for that part.
Intel doesn't make it, MicroChip/Atmel does as the ATF1504AS series part, in your case the ATF1504AS-10 AI100 is the closest
you can get. It is I temperature range, but 10ns Tpd max vs 7ns for the Altera part. 7ns is available in C temp range.
Same TQFP100 package is available. Basically it is 100% compatible second source replacement part in current production.
You can use the MicroChip POF2JED tool to translate the Altera .POF file to the Atmel .JED file to program the part.
I have done this process for EPM7064 devices in the PLCC44 package with no issues.
You will have to go to the MicroChip site to get any further info on the part and the tools.

Correction: part number should be ATF1504AS-10AU100
