Field Programmable Gate Array Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I3' against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm it denotes the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +100°C). Confirm RoHS compliance status as manufacturing statuses may vary. Check for obsolescence notices or end-of-life announcements prior to procurement planning.

Field Programmable Gate Array Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring the specific logic density and memory capacity of the Stratix III Enhanced family. Ensure the PCB layout supports the 780-FBGA footprint and thermal requirements. Verify that the design toolchain, such as Quartus Prime, supports this legacy device family for compilation and programming.

Field Programmable Gate Array Part Context

This part belongs to the Stratix III Enhanced series, an evolution of the original Stratix III line offering improved performance and power efficiency. It sits between the Cyclone and Stratix SL families in terms of complexity and cost, targeting mid-to-high-end programmable logic applications.

Field Programmable Gate Array Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other variants within the EP3SE80 family with different package or speed grades, such as EP3SE80F1152I3N. For long-term availability, consider migration paths to newer Intel FPGA families like Agilex or Arria, though pin compatibility will not exist.
