5AGXBB3D4F40C4G

Overview

The Altera 5AGXBB3D4F40C4G is a Stratix V GX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) designed for high-performance digital signal processing and networking applications. It features 289,000 logic elements and 132,075 Adaptive Logic Modules (ALMs). The device includes 12.67 Mbits of embedded memory and supports up to 544 I/Os. It operates with core voltages ranging from 0.85V to 0.93V and supports data rates up to 14.1 Gb/s via its transceivers. The component is housed in a 1517-ball FBGA package and functions within a junction temperature range of 0°C to 85°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrates high-speed serial transceivers supporting multi-gigabit data rates for complex interconnects.
• Utilizes Adaptive Logic Modules (ALMs) to optimize logic density and resource utilization.
• Includes extensive on-chip memory blocks for efficient data buffering and processing.

Applications

• High-speed telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• Advanced networking switches and routers
• Digital signal processing systems requiring high throughput

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm voltage grades and packaging variants. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints and thermal management solutions. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current manufacturer notices. Validate lead times as production schedules may vary. Cross-reference part numbers with authorized distributors to avoid counterfeit components.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high logic capacity and significant embedded memory are required alongside moderate I/O counts. Compare against Arria V series if lower power consumption is prioritized over raw performance. Evaluate Stratix V GT variants if higher speed transceivers are necessary for long-reach serial links. Consider the 1517 package size for board space constraints.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V family, representing a high-end FPGA architecture from Altera. It is succeeded by the Stratix 10 and Agilex families. The 5AGXBB3D designation indicates a specific density and feature set within the GX sub-series, optimized for general-purpose high-performance computing tasks.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-to-pin replacements are not publicly documented for this specific legacy part number. Upgrades typically require redesigning the PCB layout and software due to architectural differences in newer families like Stratix 10 or Agilex. Consult official migration guides for logical equivalence rather than physical substitution.
