Aerospace and Defense Data Acquisition
The 10AX115N3F45I2LG suits aerospace and defense data acquisition because of its industrial temperature grade, high logic density, and hardened floating-point DSP for signal conditioning. Common uses include radar pre-processing, electronic-warfare channelization, and avionics data routing. The 28.05 Gbps transceivers support modern serial fabrics such as 10 Gb Ethernet and ARINC 818, while the M20K block memory absorbs sample bursts from multiple ADC channels. According to the Intel Arria 10 datasheet, the device's radiation-tolerant characteristics (when paired with mitigation IP) make it appropriate for airborne and naval deployments.

Key Differentiators
- Highest logic density in the Arria 10 GX family with 1,150,000 LEs (vs 10AX090N3F45I2LG)
- 12-channel transceiver count for full multi-protocol headroom (vs 10AX115N2F45I2LG)
- Industrial temperature range (-40C to +100C junction) for outdoor deployments (vs 10AX115N3F45E2LG)
- Hardened floating-point DSP blocks for high-throughput arithmetic (vs Smaller Cyclone 10 GX variants)
Design Notes
The 10AX115N3F45I2LG requires a multi-rail power tree: 0.9 V core (typically 8-15 A under load depending on utilization), 1.1 V / 1.8 V auxiliary, 2.5 V / 3.3 V I/O, and a separate PLL analog rail. According to the Intel Arria 10 datasheet, all rails must ramp within the Power-On Reset (POR) timing window; otherwise, the device enters an indeterminate state and requires a full power-off cycle. Designers should decouple each rail with bulk + 100 nF + 1 uF ceramic networks placed within 5 mm of the FC-FBGA balls. Use a high-performance PMBus controller such as the LTM4675 or TPS536C7 for adaptive voltage positioning.
Estimated: At full 1,150,000 LE utilization with the 12-channel transceiver active, total power dissipation can reach 25-40 W depending on clock and toggle rates. The FC-FBGA package requires a thermal pad with an array of thermal vias (0.3 mm pitch, 0.2 mm drill) stitched to internal copper planes. According to Intel Arria 10 thermal guidelines, designers must provide a continuous copper pour on top and bottom layers for spreading. Industrial-grade parts must keep the junction below 100 C; designers should verify the thermal model in Quartus Prime PowerPlay early in the project to size a heatsink or forced-air cooling.
The 1932-ball FC-FBGA package demands a high-layer-count PCB (typically 12-16 layers) with 0.8 mm or 1.0 mm ball pitch escape routing. Designers should use a 1-2-1 via-in-pad microvia stack under the BGA and follow Intel's signal-integrity guidelines for high-speed transceiver channels. Length-matching within a transceiver channel pair is typically required to within 0.05 mm. The reference clock and JTAG chain traces must be guarded against noise. According to the Intel Arria 10 datasheet, the high-speed serial channels require a tuned 100-ohm differential microstrip or stripline on a low-loss dielectric.
Do not assume 10AX115N3F45I2LG configuration is automatically preserved across power cycles: Active Serial (AS) configuration requires a valid EPCQ flash image that includes the correct device ID. According to the Intel Arria 10 datasheet, the configuration clock must be present before the CONF_DONE pin is sampled, and an unstable clock causes boot loops. Designers should always populate a JTAG header and confirm the Quartus Prime programmer sees the correct JTAG IDCODE (0x02FF) before relying on field updates. Also avoid mixing extended- and industrial-grade parts on the same PCB if your system spec requires industrial temperature at all positions.
Compliance Information
