• Includes hard IP for PCI Express Gen1 and Gen2 with multifunction support, endpoint, and root port capabilities.
• Features enhanced configuration options including Configuration via Protocol (CvP) and dynamic partial reconfiguration.

Applications

• Industrial automation systems requiring high-bandwidth data processing
• Wireless infrastructure equipment utilizing serial transceivers
• Cost-sensitive applications needing integrated hard memory controllers

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official Intel documentation to confirm package type and temperature grade. Ensure compatibility with existing board layouts regarding the 484-FBGA footprint. Confirm that the selected speed grade meets the timing requirements of the target design before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designs require 3.125 Gbps transceivers combined with moderate logic density. Compare resource counts against other Cyclone V GX variants to ensure optimal cost-performance balance. Verify that the available GPIO count satisfies interface requirements without exceeding pin availability constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Cyclone V GX family, which targets applications requiring low-cost, low-power serial connectivity. It sits between the E series and the higher-speed GT series in terms of transceiver capabilities. The device utilizes TSMC's 28 nm low-power process technology to achieve its power efficiency goals.

Replacement Considerations

Check for updated Intel part numbers with revised labeling or packaging suffixes. Verify cross-compatibility with other Cyclone V GX devices sharing the same member code but different package codes.
