Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized channels due to potential availability constraints. Confirm moisture sensitivity level handling requirements during storage and assembly. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB layouts regarding the 1517-ball FCBGA footprint. Review end-of-life status implications for long-term production planning.

Selection Notes

Compare against other Stratix V variants based on specific logic density and transceiver count requirements. Evaluate power consumption profiles relative to system thermal budgets. Assess software toolchain support within Quartus Prime for design implementation. Consider pinout compatibility if migrating from previous generation devices.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V GX family, optimized for general-purpose high-performance applications. It shares architectural similarities with other members like the 5SGXEA3K series but offers distinct resource scaling. The part number suffix indicates specific packaging and environmental ratings defined by Altera standards.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other Stratix V GX models such as 5SGXEA3K1F40I2N or 5SGXMA5K2F40I3LG, subject to pin-to-pin compatibility and resource verification.
