Extended Temperature Device Support

Altera's extended temperature product offerings allow you to use FPGAs and CPLDs in high-temperature environments such as automotive telematics, infotainment, and driver assistance systems, as well as temperature-sensitive military and industrial applications.

As automotive electronics continue to rapidly add more functionality and features, Altera® FPGAs and CPLDs offer many benefits over ASSP or ASIC solutions. These benefits include lower overall development costs, shorter development times, and the ability to leverage a single-chip solution over a wide range of product offerings.

Table 1 shows the temperature ranges for Altera devices.

Table 1. Altera Device Temperature Ranges
Altera Device Type Extended Junction Temperature
MAX® 7000AE -40°C to 130°C
MAX II/G (2) -40°C to 125°C
Cyclone®, Cyclone II, Cyclone III (1), ACEX® 1K -40°C to 125°C
Serial, Enhanced Configuration Devices -40°C to 125°C

Notes:

  1. For more details regarding extended temperature offerings on Cyclone III FPGAs, contact your local Altera sales office or distributor.
  2. To request information about MAX IIZ device support for the extended temperature range, please contact EarlyMax@altera.com.

Tables 2 through 8 show which Altera device voltages offer extended temperature support.
