5SGXEA5N3F40I4G

Overview

The Altera 5SGXEA5N3F40I4G is a Stratix V GX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC. It features 490,000 logic elements and 185,000 Adaptive Logic Modules (ALMs). The device includes 46,080,000 total RAM bits of embedded memory. It supports 840 I/Os and operates with a supply voltage range of 0.82V to 0.88V. The component is housed in a 1932-BBGA, FCBGA package, specifically identified as a 1932-FBGA, FC(45x45) supplier device package. It is rated for an operating temperature range of -40°C to 100°C (TJ) and holds a Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) of 3 (168 hours).

Feature Summary

• Stratix V GX series architecture providing high-density programmable logic capabilities.
• Integrated high-speed transceivers supporting data rates up to 14.1 Gb/s.
• Large embedded memory capacity suitable for complex buffering and storage applications.

Applications

• High-performance networking infrastructure equipment.
• Industrial automation control systems.
• Medical imaging processing hardware.

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix 'N3' against official Altera documentation to confirm pinout and electrical specifications, as suffixes often denote specific package variants or revisions. Ensure compatibility with Quartus software versions supporting the Stratix V family. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current manufacturer certificates, as regulatory statuses can change over time. Validate that the 1932-ball BGA footprint matches your PCB design constraints.

Selection Notes

Select this model when requiring approximately 490k logic elements and significant embedded memory within the Stratix V GX portfolio. Compare against the 5SGXEA5K3F40I4G if a different I/O count or package size is preferred, noting that both share similar logic densities. Consider the 5SGXEA5N3F45I4G if a larger 1932-ball package is acceptable but a different thermal or pin configuration is needed. Verify power supply requirements align with the 0.82V-0.88V core voltage specification.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Altera Stratix V GX family, designed for high-performance gigabit communications and industrial applications. The '5SGXEA5' base part number indicates a specific density tier within the GX series. The 'N3' suffix typically distinguishes package variations or manufacturing revisions within the same logical device family, sharing core fabric characteristics with other 5SGXEA5 variants.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed direct substitute part numbers are not available in the provided source material. Engineering changes may require re-evaluation of pinouts and firmware due to potential suffix differences within the Stratix V family.
