Soc System On Chip Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I7' confirms the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to 100°C TJ). Confirm the package type is 672-UBGA. Check for RoHS compliance status and any applicable export control classifications such as ECCN 3A991D. Ensure compatibility with current Intel Quartus Prime software versions for programming and configuration.

Soc System On Chip Selection Notes

Select this model when a balance of moderate FPGA logic density and powerful application processing is required. Compare against single-core variants like the 5CSEBA2 series if lower cost suffices, or higher-end models if more logic elements are needed. Verify that the 145 available user I/Os meet interface requirements without excessive multiplexing.

Soc System On Chip Part Context

This component belongs to the Cyclone V SoC FPGA family, specifically the System Edition (SE) designed for cost-sensitive applications. It combines the performance of an ARM processor with the flexibility of FPGA logic, targeting markets where system integration and power efficiency are critical compared to discrete processor and FPGA solutions.

Soc System On Chip Replacement Considerations

Direct functional replacements within the same package and pinout include other 5CSEBA5 variants with different speed grades or temperature ranges, such as 5CSEBA5U23C8N or 5CSEBA5U23A7N. Always verify electrical specifications and timing constraints before substitution.
