Operates from 4.75 V to 5.25 V supply, 45 ns max propagation delay, 24 I/O lines. ## OTP architecture — program once, no field updates The EP900PC-2 is a one-time-programmable EPLD. Once programmed, the logic is fixed — no in-system reconfiguration, no firmware updates via JTAG. This suits production builds where the logic is finalised and verified, but it means every design change costs a new device and a re-burn. For prototyping or iterative development, a UV-erasable windowed package variant would be needed, but this bulk PDIP is OTP only. ## Through-hole DIP — rework and socket fit 40-pin PDIP (0.600\" row spacing) through-hole package. Sits in a DIP socket or solders into plated through-holes. ## Temperature grade — indoor use only Rated for 0°C to 70°C ambient — commercial temperature range. Not suitable for outdoor or unheated industrial enclosures.","metaTitle":"Altera EP900PC-2 EPLD, 24 Macrocells, 45 ns, 40-PDIP","metaDescription":"Altera EP900PC-2 EPLD in 40-PDIP, 24 macrocells, 45 ns tpd, 5 V supply.
