FLEX 10KE device package types include thin quad flat pack (TQFP), plastic quad flat pack (PQFP), power quad
flat pack (RQFP), pin-grid array (PGA), and ball-grid array (BGA) packages.
Devices in the same package are pin-compatible, although some devices have more I/O pins than others. When
planning device migration, use the I/O pins that are common to all devices. The MAX+PLUS II software
versions 9.1 and higher provide features to help designers use only the common pins.
This option is supported with a 484-pin FineLine BGA package. By using SameFrame pin migration, all
FineLine BGA packages are pin-compatible. For example, a board can be designed to support 256-pin, 484-pin, and
672-pin FineLine BGA packages. The MAX+PLUS II software automatically avoids conflicting pins when future
migration is set.

General
Description
Altera FLEX 10KE devices are enhanced versions of FLEX 10K devices.
Based on reconfigurable CMOS SRAM elements, the FLEX architecture
incorporates all features necessary to implement common gate array
megafunctions. With up to 200,000 typical gates, FLEX 10KE devices
provide the density, speed, and features to integrate entire systems,
including multiple 32-bit buses, into a single device.
The ability to reconfigure FLEX 10KE devices enables 100% testing prior
to shipment and allows the designer to focus on simulation and design
verification. FLEX 10KE reconfigurability eliminates inventory
management for gate array designs and generation of test vectors for fault
coverage.
Table 5
shows FLEX 10KE performance for some common designs. All
performance values were obtained with Synopsys DesignWare or LPM
functions. Special design techniques are not required to implement the
applications; the designer simply infers or instantiates a function in a
Verilog HDL, VHDL, Altera Hardware Description Language (AHDL), or
schematic design file.
