10AX057K4F40I3LG

Overview

The Altera 10AX057K4F40I3LG is an Arria 10 GX Series Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) designed for high-performance computing and bandwidth-intensive applications. It features 570,000 Logic Elements (LEs) and 217,080 Adaptive Logic Modules (ALMs). The device integrates 36 High-Speed Transceivers supporting data rates up to 17.4 Gb/s. Embedded memory capacity totals 35.16 Mbit. It includes a hardened Processing System (HPS) with dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 processors operating at a maximum frequency of 1.2 GHz. The component utilizes a 20 nm process technology and is housed in a 1152-ball FineLine BGA package.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a hardened dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 processing subsystem alongside programmable logic for system-on-chip flexibility.
• Provides extensive connectivity through 36 high-speed transceivers capable of 17.4 Gb/s operation.
• Delivers high-density logic resources via over 570,000 logic elements and adaptive logic modules.

Applications

• High-performance computing and server acceleration
• Telecommunications infrastructure and baseband processing
• Video capture and real-time image processing

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm package type, temperature range, and speed grade. Ensure compliance with export control regulations, as this component may require authorization for international shipment. Confirm availability through authorized distributors, as supply levels fluctuate based on manufacturing allocation.

Selection Notes

Select this model when requiring a balance of moderate logic density and significant serial I/O throughput within the Arria 10 family. Compare against the 10AS series if embedded processor integration is not required, or consider larger devices like the 10AX115 if higher logic capacity is needed. Validate that the 1152-ball package fits the target PCB form factor constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Arria 10 GX family, which targets mid-to-high-end performance markets. It shares architectural similarities with other 10AX variants but offers a specific resource count optimized for cost-sensitive high-bandwidth designs. The K4 suffix typically denotes a specific speed grade within the GX lineup.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements are limited within the same family due to varying ball counts and resource densities. Evaluate the 10AS057K2F40I1HGJZ if the hardened processor core is unnecessary, noting the package difference. No direct cross-family substitutes exist without redesigning the board layout.
