• Supports high-speed serial communication through integrated multi-gigabit transceivers

Applications

• High-performance computing infrastructure
• Video capture and processing systems
• Test and measurement equipment
• Industrial automation controllers

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'ES' against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm engineering sample status or extended temperature range specifications. Ensure compatibility with Quartus Prime software versions supporting the Arria 10 family before procurement. Confirm package availability and lead times directly with authorized distributors as supply levels vary.

Selection Notes

Select this model when requiring a balance of significant logic capacity (660k LEs) and substantial embedded memory (41.62 Mbit). The 48-transceiver count makes it suitable for bandwidth-intensive applications compared to lower-end Arria 10 variants. Verify that the FBGA-1152 package fits the target PCB footprint and thermal design constraints.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Arria 10 SX series, designed for cost-sensitive yet high-performance applications. It combines the flexibility of FPGA fabric with the efficiency of an ARM processor on a single die. The 660K variant sits in the mid-to-high range of the SX family, offering robust resources for signal processing and protocol conversion.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements within the same package are limited due to unique suffix variations. Consider other Arria 10 SX models like 10AS066H4F40I3SG if transceiver counts differ. For legacy support, verify if Intel offers migration guides from older Cyclone or Stratix families.
