A5EA013BB23BI6X

Overview

The Altera A5EA013BB23BI6X is an Agilex 5E Series SoC FPGA featuring a dual-core ARM Cortex-A76 processor and a dual-core ARM Cortex-A55 MPCore processor, both equipped with CoreSight debug infrastructure. The device integrates approximately 138K logic elements within its FPGA fabric. It operates at clock speeds of up to 1.5GHz for the A55 cores and 1.8GHz for the A76 cores. The component is housed in a 795-VPBGA package measuring 23x23 mm, providing 400 I/O pins. It includes 512kB of RAM and supports peripherals such as DDR, DMA, PCIe, and WDT.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'X' against official Altera documentation to confirm availability status and any distinct manufacturing or environmental specifications compared to the standard 'S' variant. Confirm moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3) handling requirements during assembly. Check for current Product Change Notifications (PCNs) related to labeling or material composition updates.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a balance of moderate FPGA capacity (138K LEs) and high-end application processor performance is required. Ensure the design utilizes the 795-VPBGA footprint. Compare against the A5EA013BB23BI6S if commercial temperature range (0°C to 100°C) suffices instead of the extended range (-40°C to 100°C) typically associated with the 'I' grade, though verification of the specific 'X' suffix thermal rating is necessary.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Agilex 5E family, designed for cost-sensitive applications requiring significant processing power alongside programmable logic. It shares architectural similarities with other Agilex 5E parts like the A5EA005 and A5EC008 series but offers higher logic density than the 50K LE variants. The integration of Cortex-A76 cores distinguishes it from older generations lacking such high-performance CPUs.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided source data. Cross-reference with A5EA013BB23BI6S only if the suffix difference denotes packaging or regional distribution rather than functional change, subject to official datasheet confirmation.
