1SX280LH3F55E1VG

Overview

The Altera 1SX280LH3F55E1VG is a Stratix 10 SX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) System on Chip (SoC). It integrates a quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 processor with FPGA fabric containing 2,800,000 logic elements and 933,120 Adaptive Logic Modules. The device features 229 Mbit of embedded memory and 24 high-speed transceivers. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +100°C TJ and utilizes a 2912-pin FBGA package.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 MPCore processor with CoreSight debug infrastructure for embedded control applications.
• Provides high-density programmable logic fabric with extensive embedded memory resources for complex data processing.
• Supports high-speed serial communications through multiple integrated transceiver channels.

Applications

• High-performance networking equipment requiring low-latency packet processing.
• Industrial automation systems utilizing embedded control and real-time monitoring.
• Medical imaging hardware demanding high throughput and signal integrity.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix E1 against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm voltage and temperature grades. Ensure compatibility with PMBus-compliant regulators if SmartVID functionality is required. Confirm moisture sensitivity level handling procedures during assembly to prevent package damage.

Selection Notes

Compare the 24-transceiver count against application bandwidth requirements. Evaluate the 2912-pin FBGA footprint against PCB layout constraints. Consider the 2800K logic element capacity relative to design complexity. Verify that the selected power delivery network supports the specified operating voltages.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix 10 SX family, designed for cost-sensitive high-performance applications. It shares architectural similarities with other SX variants but differs in pin count and transceiver availability. The part represents a convergence of hard processor system capabilities with flexible FPGA logic.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Stratix 10 SX devices with compatible packages, such as 1SX280HN3F43I3VG or 1SX280HH2F55I1VG, provided pinout and I/O counts align with the design. Cross-family migration requires significant redesign.
