Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official datasheets to confirm temperature grade and package variations. Confirm availability status directly with authorized distributors as supply levels fluctuate. Ensure compatibility with Quartus Prime software versions supporting the Agilex I family before ordering. Check for any recent Product Change Notifications regarding marking or packaging updates.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a combination of moderate FPGA capacity and robust ARM processing is required. Compare the 1.9M logic element count against application complexity to ensure sufficient resources. Verify that the 1805-BGA footprint matches the PCB design constraints. Consider the -40°C to 100°C operating range for environmental suitability compared to commercial grade alternatives.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Agilex I series, designed for mid-range applications balancing performance and power efficiency. It shares architectural similarities with other Agilex devices but offers specific logic density and processor configurations tailored for cost-sensitive embedded solutions. The series emphasizes integration of hard processor systems with flexible FPGA fabric.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same family include AGIB019R18A1I1V and AGIB019R18A1E1VB, differing primarily in temperature ranges or suffix specifications. Cross-series replacements from Agilex F or M families require significant redesign due to architecture differences. Always verify pinout and electrical characteristics before substituting.
