CUSTOMER ADVISORY

FineLine BGA Packages

Altera is adding ASAT and ASE as additional sources of supply for the FineLine BGA

packages currently assembled by ANAM in the Philippines and Korea.

This change will affect the FineLine BGA package outline thickness*, which will result in a

2.10mm maximum package thickness. However, this change will not affect the moisture rating

for these packages.

These changes improve Altera’s ability to support the increasing demand for the FineLine

BGA packages. The assembly locations can be distinguished by the country of origin, which

is marked on the topside of the device.

Assembly Location Inclusion Date** Country of Origin Mark

ASAT August 1, 1999 Hong Kong

ASE August 1, 1999 Malaysia
