Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Altera documentation to ensure correct package type and temperature rating. Confirm availability through authorized distributors as lead times may vary. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3) handling procedures during assembly. Cross-reference part numbers with current product lifecycle status to confirm active manufacturing support.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a combination of programmable logic and hard processor system is required. Evaluate the 573K logic element count against design complexity. Consider the 1.4GHz maximum frequency for timing closure. Verify that the 384 available I/Os meet interface requirements. Check compatibility with Quartus Prime software versions for the Agilex family.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Agilex F-Series, designed for mid-range applications balancing performance and power efficiency. It sits between lower-density Cyclone devices and higher-end Agilex M or P series. The R16A designation indicates a specific package variant within the Agilex 7 portfolio, offering a mature solution for scalable system designs.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements are limited within the same Agilex F-series family due to unique pinouts and logic densities. Consider Agilex F-series variants with similar logic counts if pin compatibility allows. Legacy alternatives like Stratix 10 offer different architectures but require significant redesign. Consult official migration guides for architectural differences.
