Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number against official Intel/Altera documentation to ensure correct suffix alignment. Confirm that the specific revision matches project requirements for pinout and electrical characteristics. Cross-reference with authorized distributors to validate authenticity and traceability records prior to procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a combined SoC architecture is required to reduce board space and power consumption. Compare against the Stratix 10 GX series if higher transceiver counts or different temperature grades are needed. Ensure the 1760-FBGA package size fits the mechanical constraints of the target enclosure design.

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 focuses on integrating ARM processors with moderate logic density. It serves as an evolution from previous generations like Arria 10 in mixed-signal and networking domains.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same package and functionality are limited due to specific silicon revisions. Consider the 1SX280LN3F43E2VGS2 for similar SX capabilities if suffix differences are acceptable. Upgrades may require migrating to Agilex families, necessitating significant design re-verification.
