5SGXMA3K2F35I3G

Overview

The Altera 5SGXMA3K2F35I3G is a Stratix V GX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) designed for high-performance digital signal processing and networking applications. It features 1,080 Logic Elements (LEs) and 40,800 Adaptive Logic Modules (ALMs). The device includes 16.9 Mbits of embedded memory and supports up to 432 I/O pins. It operates at a core voltage of 0.85V and utilizes an FCBGA-1152 package with a 35x35mm footprint. The component supports data rates up to 14.1 Gb/s via its integrated transceivers.

Feature Summary

• Integrates high-speed serial transceivers capable of 14.1 Gb/s operation for demanding communication interfaces.
• Provides extensive programmable logic resources through Adaptive Logic Modules for complex system integration.
• Includes substantial on-chip embedded memory blocks to support data buffering and processing tasks.

Applications

• High-speed telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• Advanced networking switches and routers
• Digital signal processing systems requiring high throughput

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Intel/Altera documentation to ensure correct temperature range and packaging specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level requirements prior to procurement. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints and thermal management solutions for the FCBGA-1152 package.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high-density logic combined with multi-gigabit serial connectivity is required. Compare total embedded memory capacity against application buffer needs. Evaluate power consumption profiles relative to available cooling infrastructure. Verify that the 432 I/O count meets interface requirements without excessive pin multiplexing.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V GX family, which targets high-end performance and low-power applications. It succeeds earlier generations by offering improved transceiver speeds and higher logic density within similar package constraints. The part is manufactured by Altera, now part of Intel FPGA products.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements may include other Stratix V variants with adjusted logic or memory sizes. Cross-family migration to Arria or Cyclone series requires significant design revalidation due to architectural differences. Consult official obsolescence notices for end-of-life status before finalizing substitution plans.
