Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official datasheets to ensure correct package type and temperature rating. Confirm RoHS compliance status through manufacturer documentation prior to integration. Check for any recent Product Change Notifications regarding label or packaging updates. Ensure compatibility with required programming tools and software versions.

Selection Notes

Compare logic element counts and embedded memory sizes against alternative Stratix V variants to match design complexity. Evaluate I/O availability and pinout compatibility with existing board layouts. Consider thermal requirements and heat dissipation strategies for the FCBGA package. Verify that the selected speed grade meets timing constraints for target clock frequencies.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Altera Stratix V family, which combines ARM-based hard processors with programmable logic. The GX series specifically targets high-speed serial interface applications requiring significant bandwidth. It represents a generation of FPGAs designed for demanding network and storage environments.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Stratix V GX devices with similar logic densities such as 5SGXMA3K or 5SGXMA5K series parts, provided pinouts and performance metrics align. Cross-family migration to Agilex may require significant redesign.
