Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'C1N' against official Intel/Altera documentation, as standard listings often use 'C1G'. Confirm moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3) and reflow soldering profile requirements. Ensure compatibility with Quartus Prime software versions supporting the Stratix V GS family. Check for any recent product change notices affecting pinout or electrical characteristics.

Selection Notes

Select this component when requiring a balance of logic density and power efficiency for commercial applications. Compare total memory bits and LAB counts against similar Stratix V variants to ensure adequate resources. Verify that the 780-ball package fits the board space constraints. Consider thermal management solutions given the power consumption associated with high logic utilization.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Stratix V GS family, which targets cost-sensitive applications compared to the standard Stratix V series. It shares the same architectural foundation but offers optimized performance-per-watt. The 5SGSMD prefix indicates a specific die and package combination within the broader Stratix portfolio.
