5AGXFA5H4F35I5NGA

Overview

The Altera 5AGXFA5H4F35I5NGA is an Arria V GX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) manufactured using a 28nm low-power process technology. It features a logic capacity of 190,000 logic elements and 8,962 Logic Array Blocks (LABs). The device includes approximately 12.9 Mbits of embedded memory and provides 544 I/O pins. It integrates 24 high-speed transceivers capable of data rates up to 6.5536 Gbps. The component operates at a maximum frequency of 670 MHz and is housed in a 1152-pin FBGA package measuring 35x35 mm. The 'I5N' suffix indicates an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +100°C.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm the temperature grade and speed bin, as variations exist within the Arria V GX family. Confirm availability status, as certain commercial variants have been discontinued. Ensure compatibility with the Quartus Prime software version supporting the Arria V architecture during the procurement phase.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a balance of moderate logic density and high-speed serial connectivity is required. Compare against the 5AGXFA3 series for lower logic needs or the 5AGXFA7 series for higher capacity. Consider the 5AGTFD series if higher transceiver speeds are necessary, noting the architectural differences between GX and GT families.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Arria V GX FPGA family, designed for cost-sensitive yet performance-demanding applications. It sits between the smaller Arria V ST models and the larger Arria V SX/GT models. The family is characterized by its efficient use of embedded memory and dedicated DSP blocks for media processing tasks.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-to-pin replacements are not officially listed for this specific configuration. Designers may consider migrating to the Agilex 5 D series for enhanced performance or the Cyclone 10 LP for lower-cost, lower-performance requirements, though architectural changes will necessitate design re-verification.
