Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm package type, temperature range, and speed grade. Ensure compliance with export control regulations, as these components may require authorization for international shipment. Confirm that the ordering information matches the exact functional requirements before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a balance of moderate logic density and integrated processor capability is required. Compare the 36-transceiver count against interface needs; higher-density variants offer more lanes. Evaluate the 1.2 GHz HPS performance against application latency requirements. Consider the FBGA package constraints for PCB layout planning.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Arria 10 SoC family, which merges FPGA fabric with ARM-based processors. It targets applications needing both hardware acceleration and software flexibility. The 'SX' designation indicates the specific sub-family within the broader Arria 10 portfolio, distinguishing it from GX or TX variants based on transceiver and memory configurations.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other Arria 10 SoC devices with similar logic counts, such as the 10AS066N2F40E1SG or 10AS066K3F40E2SGE2. Verify pin compatibility and feature parity, particularly regarding the number of transceivers and HPS specifications, before substituting.
