Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official manufacturer documentation to ensure correct package type and temperature rating. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level requirements prior to PCB assembly planning. Cross-reference the part number with current distributor listings to validate availability and standard packaging quantities.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high logic density combined with moderate I/O count is required for Stratix V platform compatibility. Evaluate thermal management solutions given the FCBGA package constraints and operating temperature limits. Ensure design tools support the specific Quartus Prime version compatible with this device family generation.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V GX family, which targets high-performance computing and communications markets. It utilizes Intel's 28nm process technology to deliver advanced signal integrity and power efficiency. The device integrates hard processor system capabilities in some variants, though this specific part focuses on pure FPGA logic and transceiver performance.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other Stratix V GX devices with similar logic counts such as 5SGXMA3K or 5SGXEA3 series parts. Verify pin-to-pin compatibility and electrical specifications before substitution. Consider migration paths to Agilex families for long-term supply chain stability.
