Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'E2' against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm speed grade and package variant accuracy. Ensure compatibility with required PCB footprint dimensions for the 2912-FBGA package. Confirm moisture sensitivity level handling procedures during assembly. Validate that the selected speed grade meets the target 1.5 GHz operational requirement for the specific application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a Stratix 10 SX architecture is required with integrated ARM Cortex-A53 cores. Compare logic element counts and memory resources against alternative models in the Stratix 10 family. Verify that the 2912-pin package size fits the mechanical constraints of the target design. Ensure the operating temperature range aligns with the environmental conditions of the final deployment.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Stratix 10 SX series, designed for cost-sensitive applications requiring significant logic density and embedded processing. It shares the same foundational architecture as other Stratix 10 devices but offers optimized resource allocation for mid-range performance needs. The SoC integration allows for heterogeneous computing architectures within a single silicon die.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same package and pinout may include other Stratix 10 SX variants with compatible speed grades. Verify functional equivalence regarding the ARM core configuration and I/O standards before substitution. Consult official cross-reference guides for any updated revisions or pin-compatible alternatives.
