Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official manufacturer documentation to confirm exact performance grades and environmental ratings. Ensure compatibility with required programming tools and verify that the package dimensions match the target PCB footprint design constraints before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Compare total logic element counts and embedded memory sizes against alternative models within the Stratix V family to ensure sufficient resource headroom. Confirm that the operating temperature range meets the specific environmental requirements of the intended deployment location and system enclosure conditions.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V GX series, which targets high-speed serial communication and complex digital signal processing tasks. The part number indicates specific logic density and package configuration within the broader Altera FPGA portfolio, distinguishing it from GS or GT variants based on transceiver capabilities and memory allocation.

Replacement Considerations

Direct functional substitutes are not explicitly confirmed in public documentation. Evaluate other Stratix V GX devices with matching pin counts and comparable logic/memory specifications for potential hardware compatibility.
