Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix I3G against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm the exact speed grade and temperature rating. Ensure compatibility with the required PCB footprint and thermal management solutions. Confirm availability status as older generation components may have limited supply chains or end-of-life implications. Cross-reference pinouts with the latest datasheet before finalizing board designs.

Selection Notes

Compare the 5AGXFB5H4F35I3G against other Arria V GX variants based on logic density and transceiver requirements. Evaluate if the 300,000 LE count meets current design needs without over-provisioning resources. Consider the 28nm process node maturity relative to newer families like Agilex or Stratix 10 for long-term support. Assess power budget constraints given the 1.1V core voltage and I/O configurations.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Arria V GX family, designed for cost-sensitive yet performance-demanding applications. It bridges the gap between mid-range and high-end FPGAs by offering significant transceiver counts in a manageable package size. The series is known for balancing logic capacity with high-speed serial interface capabilities, making it suitable for complex digital logic and communication protocols.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same package and pinout are limited due to specific speed grades. Similar functionality may be found in the 5AGXFB3 or 5AGXFB7 variants, though logic densities differ. Newer generations such as Agilex 3 or Cyclone V require significant redesign efforts due to architectural and packaging differences.
