Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer part number against official Intel/Altera documentation to ensure authenticity. Confirm that the specific suffix matches the required package and temperature grade. Check for recent Product Change Notifications regarding labeling or material composition updates before placing orders.

Selection Notes

Select this model when 31,500 logic elements and 144 I/Os are sufficient for the target application. Ensure the design fits within the 324-ball UBGA footprint constraints. Verify that the 0°C to 85°C operating temperature range meets the environmental requirements of the final system deployment.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Cyclone V GX family, which targets cost-sensitive applications requiring moderate performance. It shares architectural similarities with other devices in the 5CGXC3 series but differs in pin count and package size compared to higher-density variants like the 5CGXFC4 series.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements within the same package are limited due to specific logic density variations. Consider the 5CGXFC3B7U15A7N if an extended industrial temperature range (-40°C to 125°C) is required, noting the difference in qualification standards.
