Yes, as you can see in the M10-Overview document, Figure 2: Migration Capability Across MAX 10 Devices. MAX10 E144 migration compatibility is in fact non mind-blowing.

Please notice that even devices marked as vertical migration compatible, e.g. Cyclone V E, F484, A2-A9 have several pins with changed function, you either need to let Quartus list the required pin connections for you or determine it yourself by comparing the pinout tables.

Hi FvM, thank pointing to Cyclone V too, I analyze them before build board in future release of primary board.

About MAX10 the more annoying is not on signal assignment but on power pin completely incompatible.

So 02 device is out of usability due is too far from selection strap... 04..25 to 40 50 with some configurable jumper can be adapted and board with strong effort can be made to accept all series 04-50.

I am astonished about this strange pinout choice.

Best regards
