Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix N2 against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm pinout and electrical characteristics, as suffixes often denote speed grades or packaging variations. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current datasheets. Check for any Product Change Notifications regarding label changes or manufacturing site updates that may affect part identification.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a balance of moderate I/O count and substantial logic density is required within the Stratix V family. Compare against the 5SGSMD5H3F35C3N for lower I/O needs or the 5SGSMD8K2F40C3N for higher performance. Ensure the 1932-ball BGA footprint fits the target PCB layout constraints and thermal management design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Stratix V GS series, targeting cost-sensitive applications requiring significant programmable logic without the highest speed grades of the GX or GT variants. It shares architectural similarities with other 5SGSMD devices but offers specific resource scaling. The GS designation typically indicates a focus on value and efficiency rather than maximum frequency performance.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same package are limited due to the end-of-life status of many Stratix V parts. Consider the 5SGSMD8K2F40C3N for higher performance if the footprint allows, or evaluate newer Agilex families for long-term availability. Verify pin compatibility before substituting with other 1932-ball FBGA devices.
