Package and Ordering Notes
The listed package is 16-pin SOIC, industrial grade with 16 pins, leads, lands or contacts. The featured image is a generic package illustration for form-factor identification and is not an actual date-code or lot photograph. Lifecycle is recorded as Obsolete; confirm current factory support and last-time-buy constraints before design-in.
Sourcing Guidance
EPCS16SI16N is obsolete. Verify the 16-pin package variant because the existing 8-pin EPCS16 orderable code is not footprint-equivalent.
For an accurate quotation, include the full MPN, target quantity, acceptable date-code range, packaging format and destination. Icearth can help review traceability documents, label photos and electrical/package alignment before order placement.
Manufacturer Documentation
Technical values were checked against Intel (Altera) documentation. Use the linked datasheet as the controlling source and re-check revisions before PCB release or firmware qualification.
EPCS16SI16N FAQ
What is EPCS16SI16N?
EPCS16SI16N is a Intel (Altera) 16 Mbit serial configuration memory for Intel/Altera FPGA active-serial configuration. It belongs to the EPCS family.
What are the key specifications of EPCS16SI16N?
Memory Density is 16 Mbit, while Configuration Scheme is Active Serial. Check the manufacturer documentation for electrical limits and compatibility conditions.
What package does EPCS16SI16N use?
EPCS16SI16N uses 16-pin SOIC, industrial grade with 16 pins. Confirm the package drawing, land pattern and ordering suffix before PCB release.
What is the lifecycle status of EPCS16SI16N?
Intel PDN1708 discontinued the EPCS family. EPCS16SI16N is therefore recorded as Obsolete.
What should be checked before sourcing or replacing EPCS16SI16N?
Confirm FPGA family support, Quartus programming-file compatibility, supply voltage, pinout and silicon revision before replacing EPCS16SI16N. EPCQ16ASI8N is a migration candidate, not an automatically interchangeable substitute.
Lifecycle and sourcing review
This part has a legacy lifecycle status. Submit the exact MPN, quantity, delivery destination and date-code requirements for a sourcing review.
EPCS16SI16N is obsolete. Verify the 16-pin package variant because the existing 8-pin EPCS16 orderable code is not footprint-equivalent.
