Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number against official Intel/Altera documentation to ensure correct speed grade and temperature rating. Confirm that the specific suffix matches the required operational parameters. Check for any recent Product Change Notices regarding labeling or packaging updates before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when both high-performance FPGA logic and an embedded ARM application processor are required in a single package. Compare against the Stratix 10 GX series if high-speed transceivers are needed instead of embedded processor cores. Ensure the 1760-FBGA footprint fits the target PCB design constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Stratix 10 SX family, which is optimized for applications combining soft processor cores with FPGA fabric. It differs from the GX series by prioritizing embedded computing over high-speed SerDes transceivers. The 2800K logic element count places it in the mid-to-high density segment of the Stratix 10 portfolio.

Replacement Considerations

Direct functional replacements within the same package and pinout are limited due to the specific SoC configuration. Consider other Stratix 10 SX variants with different speed grades or memory configurations if available. Cross-family migration to Agilex may require significant redesign.
