5CGXFC5F6M11I7N

Overview

The Altera 5CGXFC5F6M11I7N is a Field Programmable Gate Array belonging to the Cyclone V GX family. It provides 77,000 logic elements and 29,080 Adaptive Logic Modules for digital design implementation. The device integrates 5.0 Mbits of embedded memory, including 424 kbits of embedded block RAM. It features four high-speed transceivers capable of data rates up to 3.125 Gb/s. The component supports 240 I/O pins and operates within a junction temperature range of 0°C to 85°C. It utilizes a 484-ball FBGA package with a 23x23 mm footprint and requires a 1.1V supply voltage.

Feature Summary

• Integrates four high-speed serial transceivers supporting Gigabit Ethernet and other serial protocols
• Provides extensive embedded memory resources for data buffering and storage applications
• Features adaptive logic modules optimized for complex combinational and sequential logic functions

Applications

• High-speed serial communication interface implementations
• Industrial control systems requiring robust programmable logic
• Test and measurement equipment signal processing

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm temperature grade and packaging details. Ensure compatibility with the Cyclone V development software suite before procurement. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current manufacturer declarations as regulatory requirements may evolve over time.

Selection Notes

Select this model when designs require moderate logic density combined with serial connectivity capabilities. Compare resource utilization against the 5CGXFC4 variant if lower capacity suffices. Verify that the 484-pin package fits the target PCB layout constraints and thermal management requirements for the intended operating environment.

Part Context

This component is part of the Cyclone V GX series, designed for cost-sensitive applications needing Gigabit transceivers. It sits between the standard Cyclone V and higher-end Stratix families in terms of performance and feature set. The GX designation specifically indicates the inclusion of hard serial transceiver blocks.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-to-pin replacements within the same package are limited. Consider the 5CGXFC4F6M11I7N for reduced resource requirements or the 5CGXC7 series for alternative package options. Migration to newer Agilex families requires significant architectural redesign.
