Replacement verdict
Compatible functional replacement candidate
The 10CL080YU484I7G and 10CL016YU484C8G share the same 484-pin UBGA package and Cyclone 10 LP device family, making them mechanically and electrically compatible at the board level. However, the 10CL080YU484I7G offers approximately five times the logic density and a wider industrial temperature range, while the 10CL016YU484C8G provides a lower-cost, commercial-grade alternative. Designers must validate logic utilization, timing closure, and power budget before substituting one for the other.

Key electrical and mechanical differences between the two devices
| Parameter | 10CL080YU484I7G | 10CL016YU484C8G | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Logic Elements (LEs) | 8,000 | 16,000 | Logic capacity determines how much custom digital logic can be implemented; a device with half the LEs cannot substitute for a design that needs the larger fabric. |
| Total RAM Bits | 294,912 | 540,672 | Embedded memory blocks hold buffers, FIFOs, and lookup tables; insufficient RAM forces external memory and breaks pin-compatible substitution. |
| Embedded Multiplier Blocks (9x9) | 48 | 112 | DSP blocks accelerate arithmetic; a design using more multipliers than the smaller device provides cannot be ported without redesign. |
| Maximum User I/O Pins | 278 | 340 | Available I/O limits how many external signals can be interfaced; fewer pins may make the smaller device unusable for a given board layout. |
| Operating Temperature Range | -40°C to 100°C (Industrial) | 0°C to 85°C (Commercial) | Industrial-grade parts are required for harsh environments; a commercial part cannot be substituted where the industrial temperature range is mandated. |
| Speed Grade | 7 (faster) | 8 (slower) | Speed grade affects maximum clock frequency and timing closure; a slower grade may fail timing in a design tuned for the faster device. |
| Package | 484-pin FBGA (UBGA) | 484-pin FBGA (UBGA) | Identical package and pinout enable drop-in board compatibility, which is essential for functional substitutability. |
| Supply Voltage (Core) | 1.2 V | 1.2 V | Matching core voltage means the same power supply design and decoupling can be reused without modification. |
| Configuration Memory Type | SRAM-based (volatile) | SRAM-based (volatile) | Both require external configuration memory at power-up; identical configuration scheme simplifies replacement. |
| Manufacturer Family | Intel Cyclone 10 LP | Intel Cyclone 10 LP | Same device family ensures compatible toolchain, IP cores, and configuration methodology. |

Frequently asked questions
What are the key differences between the 10CL080YU484I7G and the 10CL016YU484C8G?
The 10CL080YU484I7G is an Intel (Altera) Cyclone 10 LP FPGA with 80,000 logic elements, a 484-pin UBGA package, and an industrial temperature grade of -40°C to 100°C (I7 speed grade). The 10CL016YU484C8G is a Cyclone 10 LP FPGA with 16,000 logic elements, the same 484-pin UBGA package, and a commercial temperature grade of 0°C to 85°C (C8 speed grade). The primary differences are logic density, temperature range, and speed grade.
Are the 10CL080YU484I7G and 10CL016YU484C8G pin-compatible?
Both devices are offered in the same 484-pin UBGA package (484-ball Ultra FineLine BGA). However, pin compatibility depends on the specific device configuration and I/O assignments. Intel documents device migration between Cyclone 10 LP densities in the same package, but designers must verify pinout, power, and configuration pin differences using the official pin-out files and migration guidelines before substituting one for the other.
Can the 10CL016YU484C8G be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the 10CL080YU484I7G?
No. Although both are Cyclone 10 LP FPGAs in the same 484-pin UBGA package, they differ in logic capacity (16,000 vs 80,000 logic elements), temperature grade (commercial vs industrial), and speed grade (C8 vs I7). A direct drop-in replacement is not valid without a full design migration review, including logic utilization, timing closure, I/O standards, and thermal requirements.
What are the operating temperature ranges for these two devices?
The 10CL080YU484I7G is rated for industrial temperature operation, typically -40°C to 100°C junction temperature (TJ). The 10CL016YU484C8G is rated for commercial temperature operation, typically 0°C to 85°C junction temperature (TJ). These ranges are specified in the Intel Cyclone 10 LP device datasheet and must be observed for reliable operation.
What do the speed grade suffixes I7 and C8 indicate?
In Intel Cyclone 10 LP nomenclature, the speed grade indicates the device's performance level. The I7 suffix denotes an industrial-temperature speed grade with a specific maximum operating frequency and timing performance. The C8 suffix denotes a commercial-temperature speed grade. A lower speed grade number generally indicates faster performance, but the exact timing specifications must be verified in the device datasheet for each specific speed grade.
Do both devices support the same configuration methods?
Yes. Both the 10CL080YU484I7G and 10CL016YU484C8G are Cyclone 10 LP FPGAs and support the same configuration schemes, including active serial (AS), passive serial (PS), fast passive parallel (FPP), and JTAG configuration. Configuration details, including supported configuration file formats and external memory requirements, are documented in the Intel Cyclone 10 LP device documentation.
Which device should be selected for a design requiring 20,000 logic elements?
The 10CL080YU484I7G, with 80,000 logic elements, provides sufficient logic capacity for a 20,000-logic-element design with headroom for future expansion. The 10CL016YU484C8G, with only 16,000 logic elements, does not have enough logic capacity for a 20,000-logic-element design. Selection also depends on temperature grade, speed grade, and other system requirements.
Are these devices RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Intel Cyclone 10 LP devices, including the 10CL080YU484I7G and 10CL016YU484C8G, are offered in RoHS-compliant, lead-free packages as indicated by the "G" suffix in the ordering code. Designers should confirm the specific environmental compliance status using the Intel product material declaration and the distributor's product page for the exact ordering part number.
