Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix C3N against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm the exact temperature grade and package variant. Ensure compatibility with existing board designs regarding the 1517-ball FCBGA footprint and power delivery requirements for the 0.82V-0.88V core voltage range before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when requiring a balance of high logic density and moderate embedded memory within the Stratix V GS family. Compare against the 5SGSMD series if higher performance or different I/O counts are needed. Verify that the 1517-ball package fits the target PCB constraints and that the thermal solution supports the 85°C junction temperature limit.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V GS family, which targets cost-sensitive applications requiring significant programmable logic. It shares architectural similarities with other Stratix V devices but offers optimized resource allocation for general-purpose high-density logic applications compared to the GX or GT variants.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-to-pin replacements within the same package may include other 5SGS... variants with similar I/O counts, such as the 5SGSMD series, provided logic resources meet design requirements. Cross-family migration to Agilex requires re-evaluation of architecture and tools.
