Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I3LG' against official manufacturer documentation to confirm pinout and electrical characteristics, as suffix variations can indicate different packaging or environmental ratings. Confirm availability status through authorized distributors, as this part may be subject to end-of-life notices or limited stock conditions.

Selection Notes

Select this model when requiring a balance of moderate logic density and high-speed serial connectivity within the Stratix V family. Ensure design requirements align with the 14.1 Gb/s transceiver speed and 900 mV core voltage. Compare against other 5SGX variants if higher logic counts or different I/O configurations are needed.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Altera Stratix V GX family, which targets gigabit communications and DSP applications. It shares architectural similarities with other Stratix V devices but offers specific resource scaling. The 'GX' designation typically highlights its focus on high-speed serial interface capabilities compared to standard Stratix V models.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same family include the 5SGXEA3K3F40I3N and 5SGXEA3K3F40I3G. Verify pin compatibility and thermal specifications before substitution. Cross-family migration to Agilex series requires significant redesign.
