• Supports high-speed serial communication through 48 transceivers capable of 28.3 Gb/s data rates.
• Provides extensive connectivity options including Ethernet, USB OTG, SPI, UART, and MMC/SD interfaces.

Applications

• High-performance networking equipment requiring integrated processing and packet acceleration
• Industrial automation controllers utilizing embedded ARM cores for real-time management
• Telecommunications baseband processing units leveraging high-speed transceivers

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm package dimensions, operating temperature grade, and speed grading. Ensure compatibility with required power delivery networks for the 940 mV core voltage. Confirm moisture sensitivity level handling procedures during assembly to prevent damage.

Selection Notes

Select this model when both high-density FPGA fabric and embedded ARM processing are required in a compact 1760-ball form factor. Compare against the 1SG series if transceiver count or I/O density requirements differ. Validate that the 229 Mbit embedded memory suffices for application buffers before choosing alternative capacity variants.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix 10 SX family, designed for systems combining programmable logic with embedded processors. It shares the 1760-ball FBGA footprint with other devices in the same package size category but differs in logic capacity and transceiver availability compared to larger or smaller variants.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible substitutes within the same package require matching logic density and transceiver counts. Verify electrical characteristics and software toolchain support for any cross-series replacements.
