Procurement Notes

Verify the exact part number against official manufacturer documentation before procurement. Confirm that the suffix C2G aligns with the required commercial temperature grade and packaging specifications. Ensure compatibility with the intended PCB footprint and voltage levels. Cross-reference with authorized distributors to confirm current availability status and lead times.

Selection Notes

Select this model when the design requires approximately 490k logic elements and 48 high-speed transceivers. Compare performance metrics against other Stratix V variants if higher I/O counts or different memory configurations are needed. Validate that the 1517 FBGA package fits within the mechanical constraints of the target system enclosure.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Altera Stratix V GX family, which targets high-performance computing and communications markets. The 'GX' designation indicates the inclusion of high-speed serial transceivers. It serves as a mid-range solution within the series, balancing logic density with connectivity options for scalable system designs.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements may include other Stratix V devices with similar logic and transceiver counts, such as the 5SGXEA5N2F40C3G. Verify pin-to-pin compatibility and electrical characteristics before substitution. Consult official cross-reference guides for validated alternatives.
