Occasional ContributorEPM7032AETI44-7N
Hello!
Could you please confirm whether the EPM7032AETI44-7N was discontinued on December 6, 2021, or if it continued to be produced for some time after that?
We have some EPM7032AETI44-7N chips with a date code 2225 — is that possible?
Photos are attached.
Please reply as soon as possible.
Thank you!

Hello,
If you refer to this PRODUCT DISCONTINUANCE NOTIFICATION (PDN2041), https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/content-details/677869/product-discontinuance-notification-pdn2041.html?wapkw=%20EPM7032AETI44-7N%20&DocID=677869, the OPN is one of the affected with no replacement OPN.

Where were those devices purchased? Thru an authorized Altera/Intel distributor, or thru a third party grey market reseller?
speranskyantonHello!
Sorry for the delay.
These components were purchased from Arrow.
I received the following information: “The original factory received an order of approximately 6 million US dollars from a major customer to Arrow in 2022, with a relatively large quantity and amount. The original factory resumed production in 2022.”
Could you please confirm this information?
I’ve attached photos of the labels.
Thank you!- AqidAyman_Altera
Hello,
This is unusual, as we already published PDN 2041, which I provided earlier, that listed out that this OPN is being discontinued.
You may check with Arrow if possible.
Regards,
Aqid
