• Industrial-grade operational capability across extended temperature ranges

Applications

• High-performance networking infrastructure equipment
• Telecommunications base station processing units
• Enterprise storage controller systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I3L' against official datasheets to confirm industrial temperature rating and package variant. Confirm end-of-life status with the manufacturer before finalizing design-in decisions. Ensure compatibility with legacy programming tools if applicable.

Selection Notes

Compare resource utilization against project requirements for logic elements and transceiver counts. Evaluate power consumption profiles relative to available cooling solutions. Verify pinout compatibility with existing board layouts when considering alternative package options within the same family.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V GX family, designed for high-speed serial applications. It shares architectural similarities with other devices in the 5SGXA9 series but offers distinct I/O and transceiver configurations tailored for bandwidth-intensive interfaces.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the 5SGXEA9K2H40C2LG for commercial temperature variants or the 5SGXEABK2H40I3LG for higher density needs. Cross-family migration to Agilex devices requires significant redesign.
