Highlighted values are higher. LUT counts are shown as published; the LUT4 equivalent is an approximation to compare different LUT types, see how FPGA vendors count logic. Add up to two more devices to this comparison.

Key differences

The 5AGZE3 has about 14% more logic capacity (272K vs 237K LUT4 equivalents).

For arithmetic, the 5AGZE3 has 1,044 variable-precision DSP blocks against 985 variable-precision DSP blocks on the 10AX032.

Both have transceivers: 24 at up to 17.4 Gb/s on the 10AX032 and 24 at up to 12.5 Gb/s on the 5AGZE3.

The 10AX032 is designed with Altera Quartus Prime and the 5AGZE3 with Altera Quartus Prime.
