Field Programmable Gate Array Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I3' against official datasheets to confirm the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +85°C) and RoHS compliance status. Confirm the package type is FBGA-1932. Check for obsolescence notices as this part may be discontinued or subject to supply constraints.

Field Programmable Gate Array Selection Notes

Select this model when high I/O count (920) and significant transceiver resources (48 lanes) are required alongside substantial logic density. Ensure the design utilizes the Quartus II software suite for configuration. Verify that the PCB layout accommodates the 1932-pin FBGA footprint and thermal requirements for the 40-nm technology node.

Field Programmable Gate Array Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix IV GX family, designed for applications requiring high bandwidth and low power consumption. It shares the same logic fabric and memory structure with other EP4SGX530 variants but differs in pin count, package size, and I/O availability based on the specific suffix codes.

Field Programmable Gate Array Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same family include EP4SGX530NF45I4, which offers the same logic density but operates in an extended commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C). Other variants like EP4SGX530HH35I3 share similar capabilities but differ in package and I/O count.
