Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I1VG' against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm industrial temperature rating and package variant. Ensure compatibility with required design tools and licensing. Check for any product change notices or labeling updates that may affect part identification. Confirm moisture sensitivity level handling requirements during assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this model when both high-end FPGA fabric performance and embedded ARM processing are required in a single device. Compare against the 1SG series if hard transceiver specifications differ significantly for the application. Verify that the 2912 FBGA footprint fits the target PCB layout constraints. Ensure thermal management solutions support the specified junction temperature range.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Intel Stratix 10 SX family, designed for cost-sensitive applications requiring significant logic density and embedded processing. It shares the same architectural foundation as the GX series but focuses on integrating ARM cores directly into the SX silicon process node. The 2500K logic element count places it in the mid-to-high range of the SX portfolio.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements within the same package and logic density include other variants in the 1SX250HH3F55 series, such as 1SX250HH3F55I2VG or 1SX250HH3F55E3XG, provided temperature grades match. Always verify electrical characteristics and timing models before substitution.
