Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm package type, temperature range, and lead-free status. Ensure compatibility with Intel Quartus Prime software versions supporting the Arria 10 family. Confirm supply chain authenticity through authorized distributors to mitigate counterfeiting risks.

Selection Notes

Select this model when both soft-core processing flexibility and hard-processor performance are required within a single device. Compare resource utilization against the 10AS016 variant for higher logic density needs or the 10AS048 variants for different pin counts. Evaluate power consumption profiles relative to application thermal constraints.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Arria 10 SX family, which targets cost-sensitive yet high-performance applications compared to the GX and TX series. It shares architectural similarities with other Arria 10 devices but offers distinct resource configurations optimized for specific market segments such as communications and industrial control.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements may include other Arria 10 SX variants with compatible pinouts and similar logic densities. Verify electrical specifications and timing requirements before substituting with older Cyclone V or newer Agilex families, as architectural differences exist.
