Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized channels due to potential availability constraints. Confirm moisture sensitivity level handling procedures are strictly followed during storage and assembly. Ensure compatibility with current design specifications before procurement as this specific part number may have limited active distribution status.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high logic density combined with significant serial connectivity is required within a standard industrial temperature range. Compare against other Stratix V GX variants if higher operating temperatures or different I/O counts are necessary. Validate that the 1152-ball package fits the target PCB footprint constraints.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Intel (formerly Altera) Stratix V GX family, designed for high-performance applications requiring substantial parallel processing and high-speed serial interfaces. The 'GX' designation indicates optimized general-purpose transceiver capabilities, while the 'EA5' suffix denotes the specific logic density tier within the product line.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-to-pin replacements within the same package and density class should be verified against official Intel substitution guides. Consider upgrading to newer Intel Agilex families for improved performance per watt, though software migration will be required.
