10AS027H3F35E2LG

Overview

The Altera 10AS027H3F35E2LG is an Arria 10 SX System on Chip FPGA manufactured by Intel. It features a dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 Hard Processor System (HPS) operating at 1.5 GHz, integrated with programmable logic containing 270,000 Logic Elements (LEs). The device includes 14.65 Mbit of embedded memory and supports up to 384 I/O pins. It utilizes a 20nm process technology and offers high-speed transceivers capable of data rates up to 17.4 Gbps for chip-to-chip communication. The component is housed in a 1152-ball FBGA package designed for surface-mount applications.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 processor with the FPGA fabric for hardware-software co-design
• Supports secure boot with Elliptical Curve Digital Signature Authentication and AES encryption
• Provides flexible embedded system integration by consolidating processing, I/O, and acceleration

Applications

• Industrial automation systems requiring control-plane and data-plane functions
• Automotive embedded applications utilizing hardware-software co-design
• Communications systems supporting backplane and chip-to-chip interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official Intel documentation to confirm temperature grade and speed bin. Ensure compliance with export control classifications such as ECCN 3A991. Confirm package authenticity and moisture sensitivity levels prior to assembly. Cross-reference part numbers with authorized distributors to avoid counterfeit components.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a balance of processing power and programmable logic is required within the Arria 10 family. Consider the 1152-pin FBGA footprint for board layout constraints. Evaluate the 17.4 Gbps transceiver capability against interface requirements. Compare against other Arria 10 variants if higher logic density or different memory configurations are needed.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Arria 10 SX series, which targets cost-sensitive applications compared to the Stratix 10 line. It shares the same HPS architecture but offers lower logic density. The series is positioned between Cyclone and Stratix families, providing enhanced performance for complex embedded designs without the premium cost of higher-tier devices.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other Arria 10 SX variants with compatible pinouts, such as 10AS027H3F35I2LG. Verify that alternative parts match the required speed grade and temperature range. Consult Intel's product lifecycle status to ensure long-term availability for production runs.
