Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Intel documentation to confirm electrical characteristics and package details. Ensure compatibility with required power management solutions, particularly if SmartVID functionality is needed. Confirm that the selected voltage regulator supports the necessary PMBus interface signals for proper device configuration and operation.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a combined FPGA and ARM processor solution is required for space-constrained designs. Evaluate the 1760-FBGA package dimensions against board layout constraints. Consider the thermal performance requirements given the operating temperature range and logic density. Verify that the available I/O count meets the system interface specifications.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Stratix 10 SX family, which targets applications requiring integrated processing and programmable logic. The SX series distinguishes itself from other variants by offering specific transceiver capabilities and processor integration optimized for cost-sensitive yet high-performance markets. It shares architectural similarities with other Stratix 10 devices but offers distinct resource configurations.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Stratix 10 SX devices with compatible pinouts and logic densities, such as the 1SX280LN3F43E2VGS2. Cross-family migration to Agilex or Arria series requires significant redesign due to architectural differences. Always verify pin-to-pin compatibility and software toolchain support before substitution.
