Typical Applications

EP1810JC-35 is suitable for 6 applications: Legacy Telecom Backplane Glue Logic, Industrial Control Card State Machine, 8086/80286 Microprocessor Address Decoder, Bus Arbitration and Interrupt Controller, Avionics Ground-Test Fixture Logic, Legacy Peripheral Adapter Card.

🌐

Legacy Telecom Backplane Glue Logic

The EP1810JC-35 is well-suited to legacy telecom backplane glue-logic replacement where 48 macrocells, 35 ns propagation delay, and 5 V CMOS interfaces integrate address decoding, bus arbitration, and interrupt control previously implemented in 74LS/74AS TTL. The 35 ns tpd comfortably meets typical backplane clock periods in the tens of MHz, and the UV-erasable non-volatile configuration enables field re-programmability for protocol updates. The CQCC-68 J-lead ceramic package supports through-hole or socketed assembly typical of telecom line-card designs, and the part's 5 V interface is directly compatible with legacy TTL signaling without level shifters.

🏭

Industrial Control Card State Machine

The EP1810JC-35 fits industrial control card state-machine integration where deterministic timing and non-volatile configuration are required. Its 48 macrocells accommodate multi-state controllers for motor sequencing, conveyor logic, and sensor-fusion arbitration, while the 35 ns tpd provides predictable timing analysis for safety-critical control loops. The CMOS process technology keeps standby power low for always-on industrial controllers, and the 5 V supply matches the prevailing PLC and sensor-interface voltage rails. UV erasability allows field updates during commissioning, and the commercial 0-70°C range covers most factory-floor environments when paired with sealed enclosures.

🖥️

8086/80286 Microprocessor Address Decoder

The EP1810JC-35 is ideal for 8086/80286-era microprocessor address decoding and wait-state generation. Its 48 macrocells implement complex address maps, chip-select logic, and READY/WAIT-state generators in a single device, replacing multiple 74LS138 / 74LS139 decoders and discrete gates. The 35 ns propagation delay fits the access-time budget of these legacy CPUs at typical 8-10 MHz bus clocks, and the 5 V CMOS interface directly connects to the 8086 address and control bus without buffering. UV-erasable non-volatile configuration simplifies production programming and field servicing.

🔧

Bus Arbitration and Interrupt Controller

The EP1810JC-35 integrates multi-master bus arbitration and interrupt priority controllers in legacy VMEbus and Multibus systems. Its 48 macrocells encode priority encoders, daisy-chain arbiters, and vector-interrupt logic that previously required 74LS/AS TTL MSI packages, while the 35 ns propagation delay handles arbitration propagation within one bus cycle at moderate clock rates. The device's registered macrocell outputs simplify edge-triggered arbitration protocol implementation, and its 5 V CMOS signaling matches legacy backplane electrical specifications. CQCC-68 packaging supports socketed field-replacement strategies.

✈️

Avionics Ground-Test Fixture Logic

The EP1810JC-35 supports avionics ground-test fixture and bench-test equipment logic where deterministic timing and field re-programmability are essential. Its 35 ns propagation delay fits MIL-1553 and ARINC 429 test fixtures that operate at moderate data rates, and its 48-macrocell capacity implements pattern generators, protocol monitors, and stimulus-response comparators in one device. The UV-erasable non-volatile configuration enables fixture updates as new aircraft protocols are validated, while the CQCC-68 ceramic package tolerates bench-environment thermal cycling and ESD events better than plastic alternatives.

🔧

Legacy Peripheral Adapter Card

The EP1810JC-35 is widely deployed in legacy peripheral adapter cards such as SCSI controllers, parallel I/O expanders, and GPIB interface boards. Its 48 macrocells implement command decoders, DMA handshake logic, and protocol-state machines, while the 35 ns tpd matches the timing requirements of these moderate-speed parallel buses. The 5 V CMOS interface is directly compatible with peripheral driver/receiver chips of the era, and the UV-erasable ceramic CQCC-68 package supports OEM qualification cycles with multiple design revisions before OTP production units are committed.

What is the EP1810JC-35 and what device family does it belong to?
The EP1810JC-35 is a UV-erasable Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) from Altera's Classic EPLD EP1810 family. According to the Altera datasheet, the EP1810 family provides 48 macrocells with programmable AND/OR logic, configurable macrocell output registers, and global/local interconnect buses. The -35 suffix indicates a 35 ns maximum pin-to-pin propagation delay speed grade, and the JC suffix denotes the 68-pin ceramic J-lead chip carrier (CQCC-68) commercial-temperature package.
What is the maximum propagation delay of the EP1810JC-35?
The EP1810JC-35 has a maximum propagation delay (tpd) of 35 ns from any input pin to any output pin. According to the Altera EP1810 datasheet, this corresponds to the slowest speed grade of the family; the -25 and -20 speed grades offer 25 ns and 20 ns tpd respectively. The 35 ns delay must be budgeted against the system clock period in any synchronous design using this device.
How many macrocells does the EP1810JC-35 contain?
The EP1810JC-35 contains 48 macrocells, the maximum density of the Altera Classic EPLD EP1810 family. According to the Altera datasheet and distributor listings, each macrocell combines a programmable AND array feeding a programmable OR/registered output with tri-state control, allowing the implementation of complex state machines, decoders, and bus-interface glue logic in a single device.
What package does the EP1810JC-35 use and how many pins does it have?
The EP1810JC-35 is supplied in a 68-pin Ceramic J-Lead Chip Carrier (CQCC-68, package code QCCJ, square shape with J-bend terminals). According to the Vyrian and partstack listings, the ceramic CQCC-68 housing accommodates a quartz window for UV erasure of the configuration EPROM. The same die is also available in the GM (ceramic Pin Grid Array) and GC (ceramic Gull-Wing) families for military/extended grades.
What is the difference between EP1810JC-25, EP1810JC-35, and EP1810LC-20?
The EP1810JC-25 and EP1810JC-35 share the same 68-pin CQCC-68 ceramic J-lead package and same 48-macrocell die, but differ in propagation delay: the -25 offers 25 ns tpd while the -35 offers 35 ns tpd. The EP1810LC-20 uses a 20 ns tpd speed grade in a different package (LC = ceramic LCC). According to Altera datasheet conventions, all three are drop-in functional equivalents with timing as the only meaningful difference; the JC packages additionally have a quartz window for UV erasure.
Can the EP1810LC-20 or EP1810JC-25 be used as a drop-in replacement for the EP1810JC-35?
Yes for functional behavior, but verify timing. The EP1810JC-25 is pin-compatible in the same CQCC-68 package and the same die, offering a faster 25 ns tpd instead of 35 ns, which improves timing margins without any PCB changes. The EP1810LC-20 uses an LCC package variant and may not be drop-in on a JC-35 footprint. According to Altera, all EP1810 speed grades share identical JTAG/programming and functional behavior.
Where can I buy the EP1810JC-35 today and what is the typical price?
The EP1810JC-35 is available as of 2026-09-06 from authorized and aftermarket distributors including Octopart (12 distributors listed), Altera-Price (2899 pieces in stock at $6.00 each for qty 1), Nantian, Veswin, and Microchip USA. The reference price as of 2026-09-06 is approximately $6.00 per unit at qty 1 and $5.65 at qty 200. Note that the part is marked obsolete by Intel/Altera; lead time and stock are subject to remaining distributor inventory.
What is the lead time for the EP1810JC-35?
Lead time for the EP1810JC-35 as of 2026-09-06 varies by distributor and stock position. According to Altera-Price, approximately 2899 pieces are in stock and available for immediate shipment. Because this part is officially obsolete from the manufacturer, lead times are entirely dependent on distributor inventory and may extend to 8-12 weeks once existing stock is depleted; we recommend qualifying an FPGA-based or MAX 7000-series migration path for future production.
Is the EP1810JC-35 still in production or is it obsolete?
The EP1810JC-35 is officially obsolete (lifecycle_status: obsolete) according to Intel/Altera product status, having been superseded by MAX 7000-series and MAX II flash-based CPLDs decades ago. According to current distributor listings, the part remains available solely from authorized and aftermarket inventory. New designs should not use this part; sustaining-engineering customers should evaluate a migration to EPM7128S (PLCC-84) or a modern MAX V CPLD.
What are the recommended modern alternatives to the EP1810JC-35 for new designs?
For new designs, Altera/Intel recommends the MAX 7000S family (EPM7128SLC84, 128 macrocells, 5 ns tpd, in-system programmable via JTAG) or MAX V CPLDs (5M80ZE64, 5M570ZT100) for modern low-power 3.3 V designs. According to manufacturer migration notes, the MAX 7000S devices are non-volatile, flash-based, and pin-compatible in equivalent PLCC packages, eliminating the need for UV erasure and external programmers.
What tools are required to program the EP1810JC-35?
The EP1810JC-35 requires an Altera-compatible EPLD device programmer such as the Altera PL-ASAP or third-party programmers (Data I/O, BP Microsystems, Hi-Lo Systems) that support the Classic EPLD family. According to Altera programming documentation, the device is programmed using the JEDEC fuse-map file generated by the legacy MAX+PLUS II design software. Modern Intel Quartus software does not support the EP1810 family; legacy MAX+PLUS II is required for design entry.
How does the EP1810JC-35 compare to the military-grade EP1810GM/883B?
The EP1810GM/883B uses the same EP1810 die as the EP1810JC-35 but is packaged in a ceramic Pin Grid Array (PGA) rather than J-lead CQCC-68, and is qualified to MIL-STD-883B for -55°C to +125°C operation. According to Altera military product listings, the GM/883B variant also typically has a slower speed grade and tighter AC parametric limits for defense applications. They are NOT pin-compatible in PCB footprint due to the different package.
What is the EP1810JC-35 used for in legacy telecom and industrial systems?
The EP1810JC-35 was widely used in legacy telecom backplanes, industrial control cards, and avionics ground-test fixtures as glue-logic replacement for 74LS/74AS TTL. According to the Altera EP1810 datasheet, typical applications include address decoding and wait-state generation for 8086/80286 microprocessors, bus arbitration and interrupt controllers, and state-machine controllers. Its 35 ns propagation delay suited medium-speed control logic where deterministic timing and non-volatile UV-erasable configuration were required.
What is the operating temperature range and supply voltage of the EP1810JC-35?
The EP1810JC-35 operates over a commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C and a nominal 5 V supply. According to distributor listings, the maximum supply voltage is 5.25 V. The device is fabricated in CMOS technology for low standby power. For extended or military temperature grades, Altera offers the EP1810GM family qualified per MIL-STD-883B in ceramic PGA packages.
Is the EP1810JC-35 RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes. According to the Altera-Price distributor listing, the EP1810JC-35 is RoHS compliant and lead-free. The ceramic CQCC-68 J-lead package uses lead-free terminal plating compatible with modern lead-free reflow and wave-solder processes. Customers verifying compliance for export or military programs should request the full material declaration from Intel/Altera legacy product support.

Selection Guide

Choose the EP1810JC-35 when you need a 48-macrocell UV-erasable CPLD with 35 ns propagation delay in a ceramic CQCC-68 J-lead commercial-temperature package for legacy sustaining-engineering applications. Select the EP1810JC-25 if you need faster 25 ns tpd in the identical CQCC-68 package - it is a strict drop-in upgrade. Pick the EP1810GM883B for MIL-STD-883B defense applications requiring -55°C to +125°C operation. Choose the EP1810GI-45 for industrial -40°C to +85°C environments where 45 ns tpd is acceptable. For all new designs, however, Intel recommends migrating to MAX 7000S (EPM7128SLC84, in-system programmable, 5 ns tpd, 128 macrocells) or MAX V CPLDs (5M80ZE64, 5M570ZT100) which are non-volatile flash-based, eliminating UV erasure and external programmers entirely.

Key Differentiators

  • Faster speed grade available in identical CQCC-68 package (vs EP1810JC-25)
  • Military temperature range available in same die (vs EP1810GM883B)
  • Industrial temperature range variant with extended tolerance (vs EP1810GI-45)

Design Notes

Estimated: confirm propagation-delay budget before substituting a slower speed grade. The EP1810GI-45 offers 45 ns tpd versus the EP1810JC-35's 35 ns, a ~29% slowdown that may violate your timing closure if your design relies on the 35 ns budget margin. Conversely, moving up to the EP1810JC-25 (25 ns tpd) gives 28% timing margin improvement at the same price band. According to Altera, all EP1810 speed grades share identical JTAG programming and functional behavior, so timing verification is the only design risk when swapping grades.

Estimated: the ceramic CQCC-68 J-lead package of the EP1810JC-35 has no exposed thermal pad and is rated for commercial 0-70°C operation. For higher ambient temperatures or higher toggle activity, switch to the EP1810GI-45 industrial-temperature grade (-40°C to +85°C) or the EP1810GM883B Mil-Std-883B variant (-55°C to +125°C). The CMOS process contributes minimal self-heating at 5 V, so thermal rise is dominated by package thermal resistance to ambient, typically well under 1 W even at full toggle activity. Always provide adequate PCB copper area for socketed ceramic packages.

When migrating the EP1810JC-35 footprint to the EP1810GC-35 (Gull-Wing) variant, the PCB land pattern is identical at 68 pads, but the lead-form differs: JC uses J-bend for through-hole/socket assembly while GC uses Gull-Wing for surface-mount soldering. According to Altera package drawings, both share a 1.27 mm pad pitch. Verify your PCB land pattern matches the IPC-7351 standard for CQCC-68 before switching lead-form, especially for high-vibration or thermal-cycling applications where Gull-Wing provides better solder-joint reliability.

Estimated: the EP1810JC-35's 5 V CMOS output drive is rated for typical TTL load compatibility (e.g. 4 mA IOL / -4 mA IOH per Altera datasheet). When driving long backplane traces or high-capacitive loads, add series-damping resistors near the output pins to control overshoot and ringing. For buses longer than 200 mm, use 33 ohm series resistors to match the typical 50-70 ohm trace impedance; for shorter board-internal traces, no series termination is required. The 35 ns propagation delay budget includes typical output rise/fall times of 3-5 ns at 50 pF load.
