Procurement Notes

This component is listed as obsolete or end-of-life by the manufacturer. Availability is restricted, with some distributors indicating no stock in specific regions. Verification of current lifecycle status and alternative sourcing channels is essential before integration into new designs due to potential supply chain discontinuation risks.

Selection Notes

Select this part for legacy Stratix V GS designs requiring moderate logic density with integrated processor subsystems. Compare against newer Agilex families for improved performance-per-watt metrics. Ensure design tools support the specific device variant and verify pinout compatibility if migrating from similar 780-ball packages.

Part Context

Part of the Stratix V GS family, which combines FPGA fabric with an ARM Cortex-A9 hard processor system. This series targets cost-sensitive, power-efficient applications compared to the standard Stratix V line. The 5SGSMD3E designation indicates specific speed grade and package configuration within the broader portfolio.

Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitutes are available in the provided documentation. As the part is marked obsolete, engineers should evaluate Intel's Agilex 7 or Agilex 5 families for functional equivalents, noting significant architectural differences and redesign requirements.
