Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix and package variant against current inventory records, as this component belongs to the Arria V GX family which may have multiple pin-compatible or functionally similar derivatives. Confirm that the requested unit matches the exact electrical specifications and thermal requirements for your design. Due to the product status being obsolete, ensure compatibility with existing supply chains and consider long-term availability constraints when finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this FPGA when the application demands a balance between moderate logic density and high-speed serial connectivity within a compact footprint. The Arria V GX series is suitable for designs requiring specific I/O counts and embedded memory without the complexity of higher-end Stratix devices. Evaluate the power consumption profile relative to the 1.1 V core voltage requirement and ensure the PCB layout supports the 896-ball grid array package thermal dissipation needs.

Part Context

This component is part of the Altera Arria V GX family, targeting cost-sensitive high-performance applications. It bridges the gap between lower-density Arria V S and higher-performance Stratix V devices. The GX series specifically emphasizes serial connectivity through its integrated transceivers, making it distinct from the standard Arria V variants focused primarily on general-purpose logic and DSP functions.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. As the product status is listed as obsolete, direct replacements may require consulting official Intel/Altera lifecycle notices or evaluating next-generation Agilex families for functional equivalence.
