5CGTFD5C5F27C7N

Overview

The Altera 5CGTFD5C5F27C7N is a Cyclone V GT Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) housed in a 672-BGA package. It features 77,000 logic elements and 29,080 Logic Array Blocks (LABs). The device includes 5,001,216 total RAM bits for data storage. It supports 336 I/O pins and operates within a junction temperature range of 0°C to 85°C. The supply voltage ranges from 1.07V to 1.13V.

Feature Summary

• Integrates high-density programmable logic fabric with extensive embedded memory resources for complex digital signal processing tasks.
• Supports high-speed serial communication through integrated transceivers suitable for demanding interface applications.
• Utilizes the Cyclone V GT architecture to provide cost-effective scalability for mid-range system integration requirements.

Applications

• Industrial automation control systems requiring reliable programmable logic.
• Medical imaging equipment signal processing modules.
• Telecommunications infrastructure baseband processing units.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'C7N' against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm commercial temperature grade and lead-free status. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for the 672-FBGA package. Confirm moisture sensitivity level handling procedures during assembly to prevent damage. Cross-reference part numbers with authorized distributors to avoid counterfeit components.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a balance of moderate logic density and high-speed serial connectivity is required within the Cyclone V family. Compare against the 5CEFA series if lower power consumption is prioritized over transceiver capabilities. Evaluate the 5CGX series if higher performance or different packaging options are necessary for the target application constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Cyclone V GT family, designed for applications needing Gigabit Transceivers. It sits between the standard E series and the higher-performance GX/GT variants with more advanced features. The 5CGTFD5C5F27C7N specifically targets markets requiring robust I/O counts and significant embedded memory within a compact form factor.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Cyclone V GT devices with similar LAB counts and I/O configurations, such as the 5CGTFD5C5F27I7N for industrial temperature grades. Verify pin-to-pin compatibility before swapping. Consider newer Agilex families for long-term lifecycle support, though architectural differences require design revalidation.
