Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Intel/Altera documentation to ensure correct package type and temperature rating. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current manufacturer declarations. Check for any recent Product Change Notices regarding labeling or packaging updates before finalizing orders.

Selection Notes

Compare the 340,000 LE count and 19 Mbit memory against project requirements to avoid over-specification. Ensure the 1152-pin footprint fits the PCB layout constraints. Validate that the 14.1 Gb/s transceiver speed meets interface standards. Consider power consumption profiles relative to available cooling solutions.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V GX family, which targets high-speed serial communication markets. It shares architectural similarities with other 5SGX devices but offers distinct logic density and memory configurations. The part represents a mature generation of FPGA technology widely used in established industrial and telecom designs.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other variants within the 5SGXEA3 series such as 5SGXEA3K1F35C1G or 5SGXEA3H1F35C1G, depending on required transceiver counts and pin compatibility. Cross-family migration to Stratix 10 may require significant design re-verification.
