5SEE9H40C3N

Overview

The Altera 5SEE9H40C3N is a Stratix V E Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) designed for high-density logic applications. It features 840,000 logic elements and 31,700 Adaptive Logic Modules (ALMs). The device integrates approximately 52 Mbits of embedded memory and supports 696 I/O pins. It operates within a junction temperature range of 0°C to 85°C and utilizes a 1517-ball FCBGA package with dimensions of 45x45 mm. Power supply requirements are specified between 0.82V and 0.88V.

Feature Summary

• Contains 840,000 logic elements and 31,700 ALMs for complex digital design.
• Includes ~52 Mbits of embedded memory resources.
• Supports 696 general-purpose I/O connections.
• Available in a 1517-ball FCBGA package.

Applications

• High-performance data processing systems
• Telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• Industrial automation controllers
• Network switching and routing hardware

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'N' against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm environmental compliance or lead-free status, as distributor listings may vary. Confirm availability through authorized channels, noting that standard packaging quantities typically apply. Ensure compatibility with Quartus Prime software versions supporting the Stratix V E family before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when requiring 840k LEs with an industrial temperature range (0-85°C). Compare against the C3G variant if commercial grade (0-85°C) suffices, or the I-series variants for extended temperature ranges (-40 to 100°C). Verify power delivery capabilities for the 0.82V-0.88V core voltage requirement.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V E series, which offers enhanced performance per watt compared to previous generations. The 'E' designation indicates specific optimization for cost-sensitive, high-volume applications while maintaining robust logic density. It is part of the broader Intel FPGA portfolio acquired from Altera.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-to-pin replacements within the same package and logic density include the 5SEE9H40C3G (commercial temp) or 5SEE9H40I2LG/I4G (extended temp). Ensure thermal and electrical specifications match the original design constraints before substituting.
