Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm temperature grade and packaging variations. Confirm current product status as distribution channels may list obsolete or end-of-life variants. Ensure compatibility with required design tools and licensing models before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring high logic density and significant embedded memory within a moderate pin count footprint. Compare performance metrics against Stratix V GX series if higher-speed transceivers are necessary. Validate thermal management requirements for the FCBGA package under maximum load conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Stratix V GS family, targeting general-purpose high-performance applications. It utilizes 28-nm technology to deliver efficient power consumption relative to logic density. The GS variant typically offers cost-effective solutions compared to the GX or GT series while maintaining robust computational capabilities.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same package and pinout are limited due to the maturity of the 28-nm Stratix V platform. Consider migrating to newer Intel Agilex or Stratix 10 families for long-term supply assurance, noting that architectural differences require significant design re-verification.
