Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3) prior to PCB assembly. Ensure storage conditions adhere to JESD22-A113 standards to prevent humidity-induced damage. Cross-reference the full part number including suffixes to guarantee correct voltage grade and temperature rating specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this model when requiring high logic density with moderate power consumption constraints. Compare against Stratix V GX series if higher transceiver speeds are necessary. Evaluate pin count compatibility with existing board layouts due to the specific 1932-FBGA footprint. Consider thermal management requirements given the operating junction temperature range and power dissipation characteristics of the GS variant.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V GS family, designed by Altera (now Intel). It represents a mid-range solution within the broader Stratix portfolio, balancing performance and cost. The GS designation indicates specific power and feature optimizations compared to the standard Stratix V devices, targeting volume production environments.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitutes include other Stratix V GS variants with compatible pinouts such as 5SGSMD8N3F45C2G. Verify electrical parameters and package dimensions before substitution. No direct cross-family replacements are officially documented without significant design re-verification.
