Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'C2N' against official manufacturer documentation to confirm the commercial temperature grade and package variant. Ensure compatibility with the required PCB footprint and reflow profile specifications for the 1517-ball FCBGA package before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring significant logic density combined with high-speed serial connectivity. Evaluate the 53 Mbit embedded memory allocation against system buffering requirements. Confirm that the 0.82V to 0.88V core voltage domain aligns with the available power delivery network on the target hardware design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Stratix V GX family, which targets high-bandwidth applications. It shares architectural similarities with other 5SGX devices but offers distinct resource counts. The 'GX' designation indicates the inclusion of high-speed transceivers essential for serial communication protocols.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include the 5SGXEA9K3H40I4G for extended temperature ranges or the 5SGXEA9K2H40C2LG as an alternative commercial grade variant within the same package footprint. Verify pin-to-pin compatibility and electrical specifications before substitution.
