Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm manufacturing revisions and SmartVID support. Ensure compatibility with PMBus-compliant voltage regulators if utilizing dynamic voltage adjustment features. Confirm moisture sensitivity levels and storage requirements prior to assembly to prevent damage during surface mount placement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring significant embedded memory and high-speed serial connectivity. The Stratix 10 SX family is suitable for applications demanding both heavy digital signal processing and embedded software execution. Evaluate thermal resistance data and package constraints early in the design phase to ensure adequate cooling solutions are implemented.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Stratix 10 SX series, which combines FPGA flexibility with ARM processor efficiency. It shares architectural similarities with other Stratix 10 variants but offers specific logic density and transceiver counts tailored for mid-to-high-end SoC applications. The device utilizes the same Quartus Prime design software ecosystem as related families.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Stratix 10 SX devices with comparable logic densities such as the 1SX280HH2F55E2VGS3 or 1SX280HH1F55I2VG. Verify pinout compatibility and power requirements before swapping components. Consult official migration guides for any necessary design adjustments when moving between different silicon revisions.
