1SX165HU1F50E2VG

Overview

The Altera 1SX165HU1F50E2VG is a Stratix 10 SX System on Chip FPGA featuring an integrated quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 processor. It provides 1,650,000 logic elements and 550,540 Adaptive Logic Modules within a 2397-pin FBGA package. The device includes 114 Mbit of embedded memory and supports up to 704 I/Os with a core voltage of 940 mV. It operates within a junction temperature range of 0°C to 100°C and utilizes a 50x50 mm form factor for high-density system integration.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a four-core ARM Cortex-A53 MPCore processor with CoreSight debug infrastructure for unified SoC processing.
• Combines high-performance FPGA fabric with embedded hard processors to reduce system component count.
• Supports extensive connectivity interfaces including Ethernet, USB OTG, and SPI for versatile peripheral access.

Applications

• High-performance networking equipment requiring combined packet processing and control logic.
• Industrial automation systems needing deterministic real-time control alongside complex data handling.
• Medical imaging devices utilizing parallel processing for signal acquisition and reconstruction.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix E2 against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm it denotes the commercial temperature grade (0°C to 100°C) and standard packaging. Ensure the ordering part number matches the exact pin count and package dimensions required by the PCB footprint. Cross-reference with current datasheets to confirm availability status as distribution listings may vary.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a balance of moderate logic density and embedded processing is required. Compare against the 1SX165HN variant if lower transceiver counts are acceptable for cost reduction. Verify that the 2397-pin FBGA package fits the mechanical constraints and thermal design of the target enclosure before finalizing the bill of materials.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix 10 SX family, which targets applications requiring significant embedded processing capabilities alongside programmable logic. It sits between the smaller SX 1150 models and larger capacity devices, offering a specific trade-off between resource size and power efficiency for mid-range system-on-chip designs.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other variants within the Stratix 10 SX 1650 series such as 1SX165HU3F50E2VG or 1SX165HN1F43E2VG, provided the pinout and transceiver requirements align. Upgrades to Agilex 7 F-Series require significant redesign due to architectural differences.
