can we use linear regulators to power up intel cyclone 10lp 10cl120 (FBGA) Package ? can we use linear regulator for VCCINT or we must have to use switching regulator ??

Surely possible. It really depends on the expected VCCINT current consumption. Can use Early Power Estimator to get an idea.

i am new in this field. i have seen the intel cyclone FPGA kit they have use switching regulator the regulator they have used are obsolete now  i want to use linear regulator can you recommend me which linear regulator i can use???i have seen the document they mention in that we can use linear regulator for VCCIO and VCCA but not mentioned for VCCINT and VCC_PLL  .Can you please guide me how i can use early power estimator

Hi,

Please check following links from the Pin Connection Guidelines for Max 10.

This one will provide you the basic recommendation for the board connection.

Supply Pins (intel.com)

Following one provide some examples as well:

Power Supply Sharing Guidelines (intel.com)


Checking the Max 10 development kits resources will also help.


For the EPE, would recommend you to go through the following link:

1. Overview of the Early Power Estimator for Intel® Cyclone® 10 LP

Key to using the EPE efficiently is to provide as much accurate information about your FPGA design and the board details as possible.

As we did not get any response from you on my previous comment, I am setting the case to closure. However, it will still be open for the community members to comment on.
