Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Intel/Altera documentation to ensure correct speed grade and temperature rating. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current datasheets. Check for moisture sensitivity level requirements during storage and handling. Validate that the 780-ball BGA footprint matches your PCB design constraints before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high logic density and moderate I/O counts are required without extreme thermal constraints. Compare total available logic resources against application complexity. Ensure the operating temperature range aligns with the target environment. Verify power supply voltage compatibility with existing system rails.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V GS family, which targets cost-sensitive high-performance markets. It offers a balance between the higher-end Stratix V devices and lower-density Cyclone families. The GS designation typically indicates standard performance characteristics suitable for general-purpose high-density logic applications.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed direct substitutes are not available in the provided source material. Designers should consult official Intel replacement guides or consider next-generation Agilex families for long-term availability. Verify pin-to-pin compatibility if evaluating alternative packages within the same series.
