4000 logic elements — what that means for your design
The Intel/Altera 10M04SCE144A7G is a MAX® 10 family FPGA with 4000 logic elements and 193536 bits of embedded RAM. This density tier targets glue-logic consolidation, sensor interface bridging, and low-complexity control state machines — not compute-heavy DSP or video pipelines. The 101 user I/O in the 144-EQFP package give enough headroom for a parallel bus plus a handful of control lines without needing a larger footprint.
Industrial temperature grade — the real differentiator
Rated for -40°C to 125°C junction temperature; the commercial-grade peer 10M04SCE144I7G tops out at 100°C.
Supply and I/O — what to budget
Core and I/O share a single 2.85 V to 3.465 V supply rail. The exposed pad package (20x20 mm) requires a thermal via array under the pad for the 125°C junction rating.
