1SX250LU3F50I2VG

Overview

The Altera 1SX250LU3F50I2VG is a Stratix 10 SX System on Chip FPGA featuring 2,500,000 logic elements and 821,150 Adaptive Logic Modules. It integrates 195 Mbit of embedded memory and supports 1,160 I/Os within a 2397-pin FBGA package. The device operates at a core voltage of 940 mV with a temperature range of -40°C to +100°C. It includes 96 high-speed transceivers capable of data rates up to 28.3 Gb/s, designed for complex digital signal processing and high-bandwidth applications.

Feature Summary

• Integrates an ARM-based Hard Processor System (HPS) with dual-core Cortex-A53 processors for unified system control and acceleration.
• Features advanced 16nm FinFET technology optimized for high-density logic and low-power operation in demanding environments.
• Supports extensive connectivity through integrated hard IP blocks including PCIe Gen3/Gen4, Ethernet MACs, and JESD204B interfaces.

Applications

• Telecommunications infrastructure including baseband processing and packet forwarding.
• Industrial automation and robotics requiring real-time deterministic control.
• Medical imaging systems such as MRI and CT scanners needing high-throughput data handling.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I2' indicates the commercial temperature grade (-40°C to +100°C) against the official datasheet. Confirm the package marking and date code match the requested revision. Ensure export compliance documentation is prepared if shipping from restricted regions, as this component may require additional licensing.

Selection Notes

Compare the 1SX250LU3F50I2VG against the 1SG250 series if HPS integration is not required, noting the GX/SX variants lack the embedded processor. Evaluate the 1ST250 series for applications prioritizing higher-speed transceiver performance over logic density. Verify power supply requirements align with the 940 mV core voltage specification.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Intel (formerly Altera) Stratix 10 SX family, which combines FPGA fabric with an embedded ARM processor. It targets applications requiring both programmable logic flexibility and software-defined processing capabilities. The SX variant specifically balances logic resources and memory bandwidth for cost-effective high-performance computing.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed direct substitutes are not available in the provided source material. Consider the 1SX250LU3F50I3VG for extended temperature ranges or different packaging options if compatible with the design constraints.
