Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Intel/Altera documentation to ensure correct speed grade and package variant. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level requirements prior to assembly. Check for obsolescence notices or lifecycle changes as this component family may have limited availability in current markets.

Selection Notes

Select this model when designs require substantial logic density combined with moderate I/O counts. Ensure the PCB layout accommodates the FBGA-1517 package dimensions. Verify that the power supply design can deliver stable 900 mV core voltage under maximum switching loads. Consider thermal management solutions suitable for the specified operating temperature range.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Stratix V GS series, targeting general-purpose high-performance applications. It sits below the full Stratix V lineup in terms of transceiver count but retains significant logic resources. The GS designation typically indicates standard performance characteristics compared to higher-end variants.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-to-pin replacements are not publicly confirmed for this specific obsolete part number. Engineers should evaluate newer Intel Agilex or Arria 10 families for functional equivalents, though software migration and physical footprint changes will be required.
