Procurement Notes

This specific part number is listed as End-of-Life or discontinued by the manufacturer. Verification of current availability requires checking authorized distributors for remaining stock or obsolescence notices. Sourcing should prioritize official channels to ensure authenticity and compliance with RoHS standards. Designers must assess long-term supply stability before finalizing this component in new production runs due to its retired status.

Selection Notes

Engineers selecting this component should consider its position within the Arria V SoC SX family. The F35 package index indicates a 1152-ball BGA form factor suitable for high-pin-count applications. Comparison with newer Intel Agilex or Cyclone V families may be necessary for updated feature sets. Verify that the 1.1V core voltage requirements align with existing power delivery designs on the target PCB.

Part Context

The 5ASXFB5G4F35C5N belongs to the Arria V SoC SX series, which combines ARM processors with FPGA fabric. This specific suffix denotes the commercial temperature grade and the F35 package variant. It sits between the standard SX and higher-performance GX/GT series in terms of transceiver capabilities and logic density, targeting cost-sensitive embedded applications.

Replacement Considerations

As this model is discontinued, direct substitutes are limited. Review the Arria V SoC SX product table for pin-compatible or functionally similar parts still in production. Consider migrating to Intel Agilex or Cyclone V devices for future-proofing, though these require schematic and layout redesigns rather than simple drop-in replacement.
