Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm temperature grade and packaging options. Ensure compliance with export regulations as this item may require additional authorization for shipment from the United States. Confirm RoHS status and moisture sensitivity levels prior to assembly planning.

Selection Notes

Select this model when 480k LE capacity and 36 high-speed transceivers are required within the Arria 10 GX family. Compare against the SX series if lower power consumption is prioritized over raw performance. Verify that the FBGA-1152 footprint matches the target PCB design constraints and thermal management capabilities.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Arria 10 GX series, which targets cost-sensitive high-performance applications. It shares architectural similarities with other Arria 10 devices but offers specific logic density and transceiver counts tailored for mid-range networking and industrial uses. It serves as a bridge between Stratix 10 performance and Cyclone 10 cost efficiency.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Arria 10 GX variants such as 10AX048N2F35E2LG or 10AX048S2F35E2LG, depending on the required speed grade and feature set. Cross-family migration to Stratix 10 requires significant redesign due to architectural differences.
