Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I2G' against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm the exact speed grade and package variant, as ordering codes may include additional characters for testing or revision levels. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the manufacturer's current datasheet. Check for moisture sensitivity level (MSL) requirements during storage and handling procedures.

Selection Notes

Select this model when requiring high logic density combined with significant embedded memory resources. Ensure the design fits within the 262,400 ALM limit and utilizes the available 36 transceivers for I/O needs. Verify that the 1517-pin FBGA footprint matches the PCB layout constraints and thermal management capabilities of the target system.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Stratix V GS family, which targets cost-sensitive, high-volume applications compared to the standard Stratix V line. It shares architectural similarities with other 5SGS parts but offers specific performance characteristics tailored for telecom and enterprise markets. The 'GS' designation indicates a focus on system-level integration efficiency.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-to-pin replacements are not publicly documented for this specific obsolete part number. Consider upgrading to newer Intel Agilex or Stratix 10 families for equivalent functionality, though these require redesign. Existing compatible parts within the 5SGS series should be evaluated for logical equivalence rather than physical interchangeability.
