5CEFA7F31C8N

Overview

The Altera 5CEFA7F31C8N is a Cyclone V E Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC designed for high-performance logic-intensive applications. It features 301,000 Logic Elements and 113,560 Adaptive Logic Modules (ALMs). The device integrates 14,251,008 bits of total embedded memory. It supports 480 user I/Os and operates within a supply voltage range of 1.07V to 1.13V. The component is housed in an 896-ball FBGA package with dimensions of 31x31 mm. It is rated for commercial operating temperatures from 0°C to 85°C junction temperature.

Feature Summary

• High-density programmable logic architecture supporting complex digital designs
• Large embedded memory capacity for data buffering and processing
• Extensive I/O interface support for peripheral connectivity
• Surface-mount packaging suitable for automated assembly

Applications

• Low-power hardware prototyping
• Logic-intensive design implementation
• Peripheral interface bridging

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'C8N' against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm pinout, speed grade, and environmental rating. Ensure compatibility with existing board layouts due to the 896-FBGA footprint. Confirm current product status as active or obsolete through authorized distributors before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high logic density is required without the cost of SoC integration. Compare total ALM count and memory size against alternative Cyclone V variants like the 5CEFA9 series for higher capacity needs. Verify that the 480 I/O count meets system interface requirements and that the 896-BGA package fits the mechanical constraints.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Cyclone V E family, which targets economy and low-power applications while maintaining significant logic resources. It differs from the SX and GX families by lacking integrated ARM processors or high-speed SerDes transceivers, focusing instead on pure FPGA logic and embedded memory efficiency.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same package and functionality include other Cyclone V E devices such as 5CEFA9F31C8N. Verify pin-to-pin compatibility and electrical specifications before swapping components in existing designs.
