5CSEBA5U23A7N

Soc System On Chip Overview

The Altera 5CSEBA5U23A7N is a System on Chip FPGA from the Cyclone V SE family, built on TSMC 28nm technology. It integrates a dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 MPCore processor with CoreSight debug support and an FPGA fabric containing 85,000 logic elements or 32,070 Adaptive Logic Modules. The device features 3.88 Mbit of embedded memory and supports a maximum clock frequency of 925 MHz for the processor and 400 MHz for the fabric. It operates at 1.1 V with L1 caches of 2 x 32 KB instruction and data per core. Packaged in a 672-UBGA (23x23) format, it offers 145 I/Os and functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.

Soc System On Chip Procurement Notes

Verify export compliance requirements as this product may require additional documentation for shipment from the United States due to its cryptographic or high-performance computing classification. Confirm RoHS status and moisture sensitivity level prior to assembly planning. Ensure the specific suffix matches the required temperature grade and package variant for your design constraints.

Soc System On Chip Selection Notes

Select this component when a balance of moderate FPGA logic density and powerful application processing is required. The dual-core ARM A9 architecture suits tasks needing real-time operating system execution alongside hardware acceleration. Consider the 672-pin UBGA package size and pin count against board space limitations. Verify that the 145 available I/Os meet interface requirements for sensors, displays, or communication buses.

Soc System On Chip Part Context

This part belongs to the Cyclone V SE (System Edition) family, which targets cost-sensitive applications requiring embedded processing. The '5' indicates the 85K logic element tier, while 'BA' denotes the automotive/extended temperature grade. The 'U23' specifies the 672-pin package, and 'A7' typically refers to the speed grade and commercial/industrial temperature range variant within the series.

Soc System On Chip Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same package and pinout include other variants in the 5CSEBA5U23 series such as 5CSEBA5U23C8N or 5CSEBA5U23I7N, provided the speed grade and temperature specifications align with the design needs. Cross-family migration to Arria V or Stratix V requires significant schematic and layout redesign.
