Applications

• High-speed telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• Digital signal processing systems requiring parallel computation
• Network switching and routing hardware

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'C2L' against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm the exact temperature grade and packaging variant. Confirm end-of-life status with authorized distributors as availability may be limited. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for the 1152-ball FCBGA package before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a balance of moderate logic density and high-speed serial connectivity is required. Compare against the 5SGXEA5H series if fewer transceivers but more I/Os are needed. Verify that the 850 mV core voltage aligns with the system power delivery network design constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Stratix V GX family, which emphasizes high-speed serial I/O capabilities alongside substantial programmable logic resources. It serves as a successor to earlier Stratix IV GX devices, offering improved performance per watt and higher integration levels for demanding communication standards.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-to-pin replacements are not publicly confirmed for this specific suffix. Consider the 5SGXEA5K2F35C2L for identical specifications or the 5SGXEA5H3F35C2LN if I/O count adjustments are permissible. Validate any alternative against the latest Intel FPGA migration guides.
