Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I3L' against official manufacturer documentation to confirm the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +85°C) and RoHS compliance status. Cross-reference the part number with current lifecycle notices, as availability may be limited due to end-of-life status. Ensure compatibility with legacy design tools if migrating from older platforms.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high logic density and significant embedded memory are required alongside multiple high-speed serial interfaces. Compare total logic element counts and ALM efficiency against alternative devices in the Stratix V family. Verify that the 1517-ball package footprint matches the target PCB layout constraints and thermal management requirements.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V GX family, which targets high-performance computing and communications markets. It utilizes advanced process technology to deliver high transistor density and power efficiency. The GX designation indicates the presence of high-speed transceivers essential for serial communication protocols.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other variants within the Stratix V GX family such as the 5SGXEA9K3H40I3L or 5SGXEABK3H40C2L, provided pinouts and electrical specifications align. Consult official migration guides for architectural differences between device densities.
