Typical Applications
10AX115S2F45E1SG is suitable for 6 applications: 100G/40G Ethernet Line Card, Radar and Electronic Warfare Beamforming, Professional 4K/8K Video Processing, Test and Measurement Instrumentation, PCI Express Gen3 Accelerator, Software Defined Radio Base Station.
100G/40G Ethernet Line Card
The 10AX115S2F45E1SG's 24 transceivers at 17.4 Gbps aggregate to more than 400 Gbps of serial bandwidth, sufficient for 100G line-card MAC plus oversubscription. Its 1,518 variable-precision DSP blocks can run line-rate packet classification, while the four PCIe Gen3 hard IP blocks provide host-side connectivity for chassis backplanes. Placed on a line-card PCB alongside QSFP28 cages and a network processor, the FPGA bridges the optical interfaces to the switching fabric. Use the Arria 10 GX Transceiver Signal Integrity Development Kit as a reference design for the 1932-ball FCBGA layout and power-rail sequencing.
Recommended
Radar and Electronic Warfare Beamforming
The 10AX115S2F45E1SG's 1.5 TFLOPS peak floating-point DSP throughput and 1,518 DSP blocks enable real-time beamforming, pulse compression, and Doppler processing at RF sample rates. Its 17.4 Gbps transceivers accept direct ADC connections for phased-array digitizers, while 68.86 Mbit of embedded RAM buffers windowed FFTs and CFAR detection. In an EW receiver, the FPGA sits between the antenna-digitizer modules and the signal-recording CPU/FPGA cluster. The hardened floating-point DSP saves DSP block cycles that would otherwise be spent in software, reducing overall latency for time-critical detection.
Recommended
Professional 4K/8K Video Processing
The 10AX115S2F45E1SG integrates 12G-SDI capable transceivers and ample DSP blocks for color space conversion, scaling, and frame-rate conversion of 4K/UHD and 8K video. Its 624 user I/Os expose HDMI 2.0, DisplayPort 1.4, and 12G-SDI interfaces simultaneously. The 68.86 Mbit embedded memory holds multiple line buffers for deinterlacing and motion-adaptive processing. Compared to discrete ASSP solutions, the FPGA allows firmware-driven format upgrades and broadcast protocol evolution. Quartus Prime reference designs provide 12G-SDI transmit and receive pipelines ready for integration.
Recommended
Test and Measurement Instrumentation
The 10AX115S2F45E1SG's 1,150,000 LE plus 1,518 DSP blocks deliver the gate count and arithmetic throughput needed for high-channel-count logic analyzers, protocol analyzers, and arbitrary waveform generators. Its transceivers capture and generate multi-gigabit serial protocols such as PCIe Gen3, USB 3.1, and SATA while the embedded memory buffers deep trace records. In a protocol analyzer instrument, the FPGA sits between the probe front-end and the host CPU, performing real-time triggering and state decoding. The -E1 extended temperature grade also supports bench and laboratory environments with elevated ambient temperatures.
Recommended
PCI Express Gen3 Accelerator
The 10AX115S2F45E1SG's four PCIe Gen3 hard IP blocks enable direct x8 or x4 Gen3 host connectivity without soft IP overhead. The 1.5 TFLOPS DSP throughput accelerates financial analytics, genomics, and machine-learning inference workloads offloaded from the host CPU. The 17.4 Gbps transceivers also expose QSFP28 network ports for cluster-attached accelerators. Placed on a half-height, half-length card, the FPGA sits between the PCIe edge connector and external memory. Quartus Prime PCIe Gen3 reference design reduces development time for x8 endpoint designs.
Recommended
Software Defined Radio Base Station
The 10AX115S2F45E1SG's 24 transceivers aggregate multiple CPRI or OBSAI radio heads to a baseband processing pool, while the 1,518 DSP blocks execute channelization, crest-factor reduction, and digital predistortion for multi-standard LTE/5G NR base stations. Its 624 user I/Os fan out to front-panel optical SFP+ cages and to the baseband card. The hardened floating-point DSP pipeline directly accelerates DPD algorithms that are computationally expensive on general-purpose processors. Industrial-temperature -I2 grades are available in the same family when environmental qualification is required.

Key Differentiators
- Mid-tier speed grade balances Fmax and cost (vs 10AX115S1F45E1SG)
- Extended temperature for industrial environments (vs 10AX115S1F45I1SG)
- Full Arria 10 GX 1150K LE density (vs 10AX090S2F45E1SG)
- 24 high-speed transceivers on board (vs 10AS066H2F34E1HG)
Design Notes
Estimated: at 85% logic utilization, full 17.4 Gbps transceiver engagement, and a 25C ambient, the 10AX115S2F45E1SG can dissipate 25-35 W. The 1932-ball FCBGA requires a heatsink plus forced-air cooling, and the PCB must include a thermal pad array beneath the package. Run Quartus Prime PowerPlay early in the project to size the heatsink correctly.
The 1932-ball FCBGA uses a 1.0 mm ball pitch with 45x45 mm body, requiring HDI PCB stackup with microvia-in-pad for breakout. Reference the Arria 10 GX Transceiver Signal Integrity Development Kit stackup. Maintain 100-ohm differential impedance for transceiver lanes and use length matching within 0.127 mm for high-speed signals.
The 10AX115S2F45E1SG requires multiple power rails (0.9V core, 1.1V/1.5V transceiver, 1.8V/3.0V I/O) with strict sequencing per the Intel Arria 10 datasheet. Use a dedicated PMIC with voltage-tracking or the Altera-recommended power controller; missing sequencing can latch-up or damage the device. Decouple each rail with 0.1 uF and 10 uF ceramics placed within 5 mm of the package balls.
Place transceiver reference clock sources within 50 mm of the clock input pins and route with controlled-impedance stripline. Provide AC-coupling capacitors on every high-speed serial lane between the FPGA and connectors. Avoid routing noisy digital signals across the transceiver bank to prevent coupling into sensitive analog lanes.
Do not reuse the F40 1517-ball FCBGA pinout for the F45 1932-ball package - the ball maps differ even though both are Arria 10. Also, the -2 speed grade is slower than -1; design headroom timing closure at -2 may fail if migrated from a -1 reference. Validate the configuration scheme (AS, PS, JTAG) early since the bitstream size scales with logic density.
