Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'W' against official Intel/Altera documentation, as standard datasheets typically list 'C1N' or 'C1G'. Confirm current lifecycle status, as many Stratix V parts are discontinued. Ensure compatibility with Quartus Prime software versions supporting this legacy family before procurement planning.

Selection Notes

Select this component when balancing high logic density with power efficiency requirements typical of the GS series. Compare against the GX series if higher performance transceiver capabilities are needed. Verify that the 1517-pin package fits the target board layout constraints and thermal management strategy.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Stratix V GS family, designed for high-volume, cost-optimized applications requiring significant programmable logic. It shares the same silicon foundation as the GX and GT families but focuses on reducing cost through optimized features while maintaining robust performance for general-purpose digital design tasks.
