5CEFA2M13C6N

Overview

The Altera 5CEFA2M13C6N is a Cyclone V E series Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) designed for cost-sensitive and power-efficient applications. It features 49,000 logic elements and 18,480 Adaptive Logic Modules (ALMs). The device integrates 3.38 Mbits of embedded memory and supports up to 223 I/O pins. Operating at a core voltage of 1.1V, it is housed in a 383-ball MBGA package with dimensions suitable for surface-mount assembly. The component operates within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to 85°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrates high-density programmable logic with significant embedded memory resources for complex data processing tasks.
• Supports extensive I/O capabilities with flexible pin assignments for diverse interface requirements.
• Optimized for low power consumption through efficient architecture and standard voltage operation.

Applications

• Industrial automation control systems
• Consumer electronics peripheral interfaces
• Telecommunications baseband processing

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'C6N' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm the exact speed grade and commercial temperature rating. Ensure compatibility with the 383-ball MBGA footprint during PCB layout. Confirm RoHS compliance status if required by your supply chain standards before finalizing orders.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a balance between moderate logic density and low cost is required. Compare total embedded memory capacity against application needs to ensure sufficient on-chip storage. Verify that the 223 I/O count meets all external connection requirements without excessive multiplexing.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Cyclone V E family, which targets entry-level to mid-range FPGA applications. It shares architectural similarities with other 5CEA4 devices but differs in package type and specific speed binning. It serves as a successor to earlier Cyclone IV designs, offering improved performance-per-watt metrics.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 5CEFA4 series variants with compatible packages. Cross-reference pinouts and electrical characteristics carefully when considering upgrades to higher density Cyclone V models or alternative vendor FPGAs with similar LE counts.
