Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm package type and temperature rating. Ensure compatibility with existing board layouts regarding the 896-ball BGA footprint. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current manufacturer declarations before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a combined ARM processor and FPGA fabric is required in a compact form factor. Evaluate the 85K logic element count against design complexity requirements. Consider the 925 MHz processor speed for real-time application needs compared to higher-performance Arria series options.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Arria V SX family, designed for cost-sensitive applications requiring moderate performance. It bridges the gap between standard FPGAs and full SoC devices by integrating hardened ARM cores directly onto the silicon die alongside the programmable logic fabric.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other Arria V SX variants with different logic densities or pin counts. Verify electrical compatibility and software toolchain support when substituting with Cyclone V SoC devices or newer Agilex series components.
