5SGSMD5K3F40C3WN

Overview

The Altera 5SGSMD5K3F40C3WN is a Stratix V GS Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) designed for high-performance embedded applications. This device features 457,000 logic elements and 172,600 Adaptive Logic Modules (ALMs). It integrates 39 Mbits of total embedded memory, including 5.27 Mbits of embedded block RAM. The component supports up to 696 I/Os and includes 24 transceivers capable of data rates up to 14.1 Gb/s. It operates within a junction temperature range of 0°C to 85°C and utilizes a 1517-ball FCBGA package.

Feature Summary

• Stratix V GS series architecture optimized for cost-sensitive, high-volume applications
• Integrated hard IP blocks supporting standard protocols like PCIe Gen3
• High-speed serial transceivers for bandwidth-centric data processing
• Advanced power management with multiple voltage domains

Applications

• Telecommunications infrastructure and baseband processing
• Industrial automation and control systems
• Data center acceleration and storage controllers
• Medical imaging equipment signal processing

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'WN' against official Intel/Altera documentation, as standard listings often use suffixes like 'C3G' or 'C2L'. Confirm RoHS compliance and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3) requirements for your assembly process. Ensure compatibility with Quartus Prime software versions supporting the Stratix V family. Check for any recent Product Change Notifications regarding labeling or packaging updates.

Selection Notes

Select this part when requiring a balance between high logic density and lower power consumption compared to GX or GT variants. The GS series is ideal for applications where extreme performance is less critical than cost efficiency. Compare total embedded memory needs against the 39 Mbit capacity. Ensure the 1517-ball package fits your PCB footprint constraints and thermal design specifications.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V GS family, which targets high-volume, cost-sensitive markets. It shares the same 28-nm process technology as other Stratix V devices but offers reduced feature sets in terms of transceiver count and memory to optimize manufacturing costs. It is part of the broader portfolio managed by Intel after acquiring Altera.
