Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix 'C2WN' against official manufacturer documentation, as standard listings often use 'C2N' or 'C2G'. Confirm current lifecycle status, as this specific variant may be discontinued or restricted. Ensure compatibility with required PCB footprint and thermal management solutions before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high logic density and significant embedded memory are required alongside moderate I/O counts. Compare against the 5SGSMD5K2F40C2N for potential availability differences. Consider the 5SGXMA series if higher performance transceivers are needed instead of the GS series capabilities.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Altera Stratix V GS family, which targets cost-sensitive yet high-performance markets. It shares the same physical package and pinout with other variants in the 5SGSMD5K2F40 series, differing primarily in internal configuration and speed grades. The GS series typically offers a balance between performance and power efficiency.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the 5SGSMD5K2F40C2N and 5SGSMD5K2F40C3G, which share identical logical resources and packaging. Verify that any replacement matches the specific operating temperature and voltage requirements of the original design.
