Occasional ContributorPart query
Hi,
Can you please let me know the validity (ACTIVE/DISCONTINUED) of below part number.
If part is valid then please provide us the supported datasheet.
Part: EP610DM/833B
Altera/Intel discontinued manufacturing this part long ago, back in 2007. See:
https://www.intel.com/content/dam/altera-www/global/en_US/pdfs/literature/pcn/pdn0605.pdf
However, a third party has remained a source, available currently via DigiKey:
https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/rochester-electronics-llc/EP610DM-35/12608414
Rochester Electronics sources parts based on original manufacturer die or masks, principally for the military market.
Expect to pay a very high per part price, however, for the privilege of using such an old part.

That page listing all the PDNs is certainly useful, but in practice it is NOT easy to find if a particular part and/or package has been EOLed.
I would suggest Intel/Altera make a web search page where I can enter a full or partial part number AND have it search the PDN database to pop up any PDNs that reference that part.
That would be very useful to customers.
Right now manually searching PDNs by title (that is not always sufficiently detailed) is quite tedious.
