Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized channels as the part may be discontinued or subject to long lead times. Confirm moisture sensitivity level handling requirements during storage and assembly. Ensure compatibility with current design tools and verify that the specific suffix denotes the correct temperature grade and package variant for your application needs.

Selection Notes

Select this model when requiring moderate FPGA density with integrated high-speed serial connectivity. Compare against the 5SGX series if higher performance or lower power consumption is critical. Verify that the 696 I/O count and 45 Mbit memory suffice for system bandwidth and buffering requirements without necessitating external memory controllers.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Intel (formerly Altera) Stratix V GS family, designed for general-purpose high-volume applications. It shares the same pinout and architectural foundation as other GS variants but differs in logic density and memory resources. The device utilizes the Quartus Prime software suite for configuration and development.

Replacement Considerations

Direct public substitutes are not explicitly confirmed in available documentation. Consider equivalent density FPGAs from the same Stratix V GS family, such as the 5SGSMD6K2F40I2N, noting potential differences in temperature rating or package marking. Validate functional equivalence through detailed datasheet comparison before implementation.
