Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'LH' against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm the exact speed grade and package variant, as minor alphanumeric changes can indicate different electrical characteristics or testing levels. Ensure compatibility with current design tools and check for any active Product Change Notifications that may affect long-term availability or pin definitions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density FPGA fabric is required alongside an embedded ARM processor for heterogeneous computing. Compare the 2.5M LE capacity and 195 Mbit memory against application requirements. Evaluate the 24 transceiver count against bandwidth needs and ensure the FCBGA footprint fits the target PCB layout constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Stratix 10 SX family, designed for scalable performance and power efficiency. It utilizes Intel's 14nm FinFET technology. The series targets applications requiring significant parallel processing capabilities combined with embedded software control, bridging the gap between general-purpose processors and pure FPGA solutions.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official cross-reference guides for compatible devices within the Stratix 10 portfolio. Verify if higher or lower density variants offer necessary feature parity. No direct public substitute part numbers are confirmed without checking specific pin-to-pin compatibility matrices.
