5SGXEA3K3F40I4G

Overview

The Altera 5SGXEA3K3F40I4G is a Stratix V GX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC. It features 957 Logic Array Blocks (LABs), 696 I/O pins, and 19 Mbits of embedded memory. The device supports data rates up to 14.1 Gb/s with 36 transceivers. It operates within a supply voltage range of 0.82V to 0.88V and functions at temperatures from -40°C to 100°C TJ. The component is housed in a 1517-BBGA, FCBGA package.

Feature Summary

• High-density logic fabric with 957 LABs for complex digital designs
• Integrated high-speed serial transceivers supporting 14.1 Gb/s data rates
• Robust thermal performance suitable for industrial operating environments

Applications

• High-performance telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• Industrial automation and control systems requiring deterministic latency
• Test and measurement instrumentation with high-bandwidth signal processing needs

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I4G' against official manufacturer documentation to confirm pinout compatibility and electrical specifications. Ensure that any substitute components maintain identical package dimensions and thermal characteristics to avoid PCB redesign requirements during procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a balance of moderate logic density and high-speed serial connectivity is required. Compare against the 5SGXEA5K variant if higher logic capacity is needed, or consider the 5AGZME series for lower power consumption requirements in similar form factors.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V GX family, designed for high-performance applications. It shares the 1517-BBGA package with other variants like the 5SGXEA5K3F40I4G but offers distinct logic and memory resources tailored for specific bandwidth and processing demands within the same physical footprint.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed direct substitutes are not available in the provided source material. Engineering changes require verification of functional equivalence and pin-to-pin compatibility with alternative Stratix V devices.
