Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number against official Intel documentation to ensure correct speed grades, temperature ranges, and package types. Confirm that the specific ordering suffix matches the required manufacturing specifications. Cross-reference datasheets for any recent product change notices or errata updates relevant to this component revision.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high logic density and integrated transceivers are required in a cost-effective FPGA architecture. Ensure the design fits within the 301K LE capacity and verify power supply requirements align with the specified 1.1V core voltage range. Consider thermal management solutions suitable for the 896-FBGA package footprint.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Cyclone V GX family, optimized for low-cost and low-power transceiver applications. It shares architectural features with other Cyclone V variants but distinguishes itself through its specific combination of logic resources and 3-Gbps transceiver channels. It serves as a bridge between general-purpose FPGAs and higher-end SoC devices.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other Cyclone V GX devices with compatible pinouts and resource counts, such as the 5CGXFC9A6F31I7N. Verify package compatibility and speed grade equivalence before substitution. Consult Intel's migration guides for detailed pin-to-pin compatibility information.
