• Integrates dual ARM Cortex-A9 MPCore processors with CoreSight embedded trace functionality for system-level processing.
• Provides high-density programmable logic resources suitable for complex digital design implementations.
• Supports multiple high-speed communication protocols including Ethernet and USB OTG for versatile connectivity.

Applications

• Industrial automation controllers requiring integrated processing and logic control
• Medical imaging systems utilizing embedded processor cores for data handling
• Telecommunications infrastructure equipment needing high-speed interface support

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I5G' against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm temperature grade and packaging details. Ensure compatibility with Quartus Prime software versions supporting the Arria V ST family. Check for moisture sensitivity level requirements during storage and handling procedures prior to assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a combined hard processor system and flexible FPGA fabric is required. Compare logic density and processor speed against other Arria V variants like the GX series if transceiver performance is not critical. Evaluate power consumption profiles at the 1.1 V operating voltage for thermal management planning.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Arria V ST family, which targets cost-sensitive applications compared to the higher-performance GX series. It shares the same 896-ball FBGA footprint as other devices in the series, facilitating potential pin-compatible upgrades or downgrades within the ST lineup depending on resource needs.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other Arria V ST devices with similar logic counts, such as 5ASTMD5E3F31I3G, provided the temperature grade matches the application requirements. Verify pinout compatibility before substitution.
