10AX027E4F29E3LG

Overview

The Altera 10AX027E4F29E3LG is an Arria 10 GX FPGA featuring 270,000 logic elements and 101,620 adaptive logic modules. It integrates 14.65 Mbit of embedded memory and supports data rates up to 17.4 Gb/s via its high-speed transceivers. The device operates within a core voltage range of 870 mV to 930 mV and functions reliably between -40°C and +100°C. Packaged in an FBGA-1152 format, it provides 484 pins for system integration.

Feature Summary

• Integrates hardened ARM Cortex-A9 processing subsystems alongside programmable logic fabric
• Supports high-speed serial communication through integrated multi-gigabit transceivers
• Combines dual-core processor capabilities with dense field-programmable gate array resources

Applications

• High-performance networking equipment requiring multi-gigabit interface support
• Industrial automation systems demanding real-time parallel processing
• Test and measurement instruments utilizing high-bandwidth data acquisition

Procurement Notes

Verify export compliance requirements before ordering, as this component may require additional documentation for international shipping. Confirm the specific suffix E3 indicates the correct performance grade and temperature rating for your application environment. Ensure that the FBGA-1152 package dimensions align with your PCB layout constraints prior to finalizing procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this model when requiring a balance of moderate logic density and significant embedded memory within the Arria 10 family. Compare against the 10AS series if a hardened processor subsystem is not required, or consider higher-density variants like the 10AX115 for more complex designs. Evaluate power consumption profiles against the 870 mV to 930 mV operating range to ensure adequate thermal management solutions are implemented.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Arria 10 GX FPGA family, designed for bandwidth-intensive applications. It sits below larger devices like the 10AX115 in terms of logic capacity but offers comparable transceiver speeds. The GX designation typically implies optimized performance for general-purpose high-speed interconnects compared to other sub-families.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same package and pinout are limited due to lifecycle variations. Consider the 10AX027H2F35I1SG for similar resource counts, though pin compatibility must be verified. Upgrading to Agilex series devices may offer improved performance but requires significant design adaptation.
