Field Programmable Gate Array Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'C2N' against official Intel/Altera documentation, as public records primarily list the 'EP4SGX70HF35C4G' variant for this logic density. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3) prior to procurement. Check for End-of-Life (EOL) notices or Production Change Notices (PCN) affecting availability.

Field Programmable Gate Array Selection Notes

Select this model for applications requiring moderate logic density with high-speed serial connectivity. Ensure the design accommodates the 1152-pin BGA footprint and thermal requirements. Compare against the EP4SGX70HF35C4G if extended temperature ranges or different pin configurations are required. Validate that the 8.5 Gb/s transceiver speed meets system bandwidth needs.

Field Programmable Gate Array Part Context

This part belongs to the Stratix IV GX family, designed for high-performance digital signal processing and networking. It utilizes TSMC's 40-nm technology. The 'GX' designation indicates the inclusion of high-speed Gigabit Transceivers, distinguishing it from the GT (11.3 Gb/s) and E (enhanced logic) variants within the broader Stratix IV portfolio.

Field Programmable Gate Array Replacement Considerations

Publicly verified direct substitutes for the exact suffix C2N are not available in the provided source material. The EP4SGX70HF35C4G shares identical logic resources (72,600 LEs) and package type but may differ in temperature grade or revision. Consult official cross-reference guides for qualified replacements.
