5CGXFC3B6F23I7N

Overview

The Altera 5CGXFC3B6F23I7N is a Cyclone V GX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) housed in a 484-ball Fine-Pitch Ball Grid Array (FBGA) package. It contains 36,000 logic elements and 13,460 Adaptive Logic Modules (ALMs). The device integrates 1.32 Mbit of embedded memory, including 182 kbit of embedded block RAM. It operates with a core voltage range of 1.07 V to 1.13 V and supports data rates up to 3.125 Gb/s via three transceivers. The maximum operating frequency is 400 MHz, and it functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +100°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrates three high-speed serial transceivers supporting data rates up to 3.125 Gb/s for serial communication applications.
• Features an architecture based on Adaptive Logic Modules (ALMs) to optimize logic density and resource utilization.
• Includes dedicated embedded block RAM (EBR) for efficient data buffering and storage requirements.

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust programmable logic.
• Communication infrastructure utilizing serial transceiver interfaces.
• Test and measurement equipment needing high-speed signal processing capabilities.

Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number against official manufacturer documentation to ensure correct suffix identification. Confirm that the specific ordering code matches the required package type and temperature grade. Cross-reference the component with current datasheets to validate any recent design changes or labeling updates before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a Cyclone V GX device with exactly 36,000 LEs and a 484-pin FBGA package is required. Ensure the application demands three transceivers and fits within the specified 1.07 V to 1.13 V power supply constraints. Verify that the thermal environment remains within the -40°C to +100°C operational range for reliable performance.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Altera Cyclone V GX family, which targets cost-sensitive applications requiring moderate performance and low power consumption. The 'FC' designation indicates the specific die size and logic capacity within the 5CGXC3 sub-series. The 'I7' suffix denotes the industrial temperature rating, distinguishing it from commercial variants.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Cyclone V GX devices with identical pin counts and comparable logic resources, such as the 5CGXFC3B6F23I7. Verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications before swapping components to ensure system integrity.
