1SX250HH3F55I3XG

Overview

The Altera 1SX250HH3F55I3XG is a Stratix 10 SX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) System on Chip (SoC). It integrates a quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 MPCore processor with CoreSight technology and 2.5 million logic elements. The device features 195 Mbit of embedded memory, 24 high-speed transceivers, and supports up to 1160 I/Os. Operating at speeds up to 1.5 GHz, it utilizes a 2912-ball FC-BGA package measuring 55x55 mm. Key peripherals include DMA and WDT, with connectivity options such as Ethernet, USB OTG, SPI, and UART.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 MPCore processor with CoreSight for embedded control
• Provides 2.5 million logic elements and 195 Mbit of embedded memory for complex logic processing
• Includes 24 high-speed transceivers supporting advanced serial communication protocols
• Supports extensive peripheral interfaces including Ethernet, USB OTG, and standard serial buses

Applications

• High-performance network infrastructure equipment
• Industrial automation and control systems
• Medical imaging and diagnostic devices
• Test and measurement instrumentation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I3' against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm temperature grade and speed bin accuracy. Confirm package marking and RoHS compliance status prior to integration. Ensure supply chain channels are authorized to prevent counterfeit components. Check for any recent Product Change Notifications regarding labeling or material updates.

Selection Notes

Select this model when both FPGA fabric capacity and embedded ARM processing are required in a single component. Compare against the 1SG series if high-speed transceiver density is the primary constraint rather than embedded processor needs. Evaluate power consumption profiles against system thermal limits given the 1.5 GHz operating capability.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix 10 SX family, designed for applications requiring significant embedded processing alongside programmable logic. It differs from the GX series by prioritizing the integration of the ARM Cortex-A53 cores over maximum transceiver counts. The 2912 FBGA package provides a dense interconnect solution for high-pin-count designs.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed direct substitute part numbers are not available in the provided source data. Designers should consult official Intel compatibility matrices for pin-to-pin or functional equivalents within the Stratix 10 portfolio.
