Key differences
The A5E 028A has about 20% more logic capacity (191K vs 160K LUT4 equivalents).
They use different logic architectures: the A5E 028A is built from ALMs and the Ti165 from LUT4, so the raw LUT counts (95.7K vs 160K) are not directly comparable.
For arithmetic, the Ti165 has 590 DSP blocks against 376 variable-precision DSP blocks on the A5E 028A.
The A5E 028A has more on-chip memory (14 Mb vs 12.1 Mb).
Both have transceivers: 12 at up to 28 Gb/s on the A5E 028A and 16 at up to 16 Gb/s on the Ti165.
The A5E 028A is designed with Altera Quartus Prime and the Ti165 with Efinix Efinity.
