5CEFA9F23C8N

Overview

The Altera 5CEFA9F23C8N is a Cyclone V E-series FPGA built on TSMC's 28nm low-power process. It features an A9 member code providing 301K logic elements, 113,560 ALMs, and 454,240 registers. The device includes 12,200 Kb of M10K embedded memory and 342 variable-precision DSP blocks. It operates at a core voltage of 1.1V within the commercial temperature range (0°C to 85°C). The component utilizes a 484-pin FineLine BGA package with 224 available GPIOs.

Feature Summary

• Enhanced 8-input adaptive logic module architecture for high-density logic implementation
• Variable-precision DSP blocks supporting multiple signal processing precision levels
• Integrated hard IP including PCIe Gen2/Gen1 controllers and DDR/LPDDR2 memory controllers

Applications

• Industrial automation systems requiring cost-effective programmable logic
• Wireless and wireline infrastructure components
• General-purpose digital signal processing applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official Intel documentation to confirm lead-free packaging status and exact speed grade. Ensure compatibility with the required operating temperature range and package dimensions before finalizing procurement specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this variant when maximum logic density within the Cyclone V E family is required without integrated transceivers or hard processor systems. Confirm that the 484-pin FBGA footprint aligns with the target PCB layout constraints and I/O count requirements.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Cyclone V E family, which focuses on lowest system cost and power for general logic and DSP. Unlike GX or GT variants, it lacks integrated high-speed serial transceivers. It serves as a high-capacity solution for parallel logic-intensive designs.

Replacement Considerations

Consider the 5CEFA9F23C7N for industrial temperature operation (-40°C to 100°C) or the 5CEFA9U19C8N if a smaller 484-pin UBGA package is preferred. Verify pinout compatibility during migration.
