1SX280HH1F55E1VGS3

Overview

The Altera 1SX280HH1F55E1VGS3 is a Stratix 10 SX System on Chip FPGA featuring 2,800,000 logic elements and 933,120 adaptive logic modules. It integrates four ARM Cortex-A53 processor cores operating at up to 1 GHz with 229 Mbit of embedded memory. The device supports 1,160 I/Os and includes 24 transceivers. It operates within a supply voltage range of 0.77V to 0.97V and functions at temperatures from 0°C to 100°C TJ. The component is housed in a 2912-ball FCBGA package.

Feature Summary

• Integrates quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 processors for system-level control alongside programmable fabric
• Supports dynamic voltage adjustment via SmartVID technology managed by the Secure Device Manager subsystem
• Provides high-speed connectivity through integrated transceiver interfaces

Applications

• High-performance networking infrastructure equipment
• Industrial automation and control systems
• Telecommunications base stations

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix E1 against official Intel documentation to confirm feature set alignment. Ensure power delivery designs strictly adhere to PMBus requirements for SmartVID-enabled devices. Confirm moisture sensitivity level handling procedures during assembly to prevent package damage.

Selection Notes

Select this model when requiring significant logic capacity combined with embedded processing capabilities. Compare against the 1SG series if pure FPGA performance without processor cores is sufficient. Evaluate thermal management requirements given the high density of the 2912-ball package and active core operation.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Stratix 10 SX family, which targets cost-sensitive applications compared to the GX series. It shares the same foundational architecture but differs in transceiver count and processor integration specifics. The SX variant provides a balance between high-end performance and manageable power consumption.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes are limited due to unique pinouts and internal architectures. Consider the 1SX280HN1F43E1VGS3 for similar logic density but different package and speed grades. Verify compatibility with existing board layouts before transitioning to alternative SKUs.
