Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix configuration against official Intel/Altera documentation to ensure correct speed grade and environmental rating. Confirm availability status as this specific part number may be discontinued or subject to limited supply constraints. Request current datasheets and errata documents prior to integration to validate all electrical and mechanical specifications.

Selection Notes

Compare the 340,000 LE count and 36-transceiver configuration against project requirements to ensure sufficient resources. Evaluate the 14.1 Gb/s transceiver speed against interface standards such as PCIe or Ethernet. Consider the 1152-ball FBGA package dimensions for PCB layout compatibility and thermal management strategies during the design phase.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V GX family, which targets high-speed serial communication applications. The 'EA' designation typically indicates an enhanced performance variant within the series. It shares architectural similarities with other Stratix V devices but offers specific logic and transceiver counts tailored for dense interconnect scenarios.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official Intel product selection guides for direct pin-compatible or functionally equivalent upgrades within the Stratix V or subsequent generations like Stratix 10. Verify that any substitute maintains the required 14.1 Gb/s transceiver capability and 1152-ball package footprint.
