Procurement Notes

Verify the exact revision level and manufacturing date code against current inventory sources, as this component may be subject to end-of-life status or limited availability. Confirm that the 1152-pin ball grid array package matches your PCB footprint requirements precisely. Ensure that power delivery networks support the specified 0.82V to 0.88V core voltage range without deviation. Check for any specific handling instructions related to moisture sensitivity levels before soldering.

Selection Notes

Select this model when design requirements demand significant logic capacity combined with large embedded memory blocks within a single FPGA die. Consider the 1152-pin package constraints regarding board space and thermal management capabilities during the initial layout phase. Evaluate whether the Stratix V GX transceiver speeds meet the specific interface bandwidth needs of the target application compared to lower-tier series options.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Altera Stratix V GX family, which targets high-end performance applications requiring substantial computational resources. It shares architectural similarities with other devices in the 5SGXMA series but offers distinct logic and memory configurations. The component represents a specific point in the product lifecycle, potentially influencing long-term supply chain stability for existing designs.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same package and pinout include the 5SGXMA5K3F35C4G and 5SGXMA5K3F35C4WN. These alternatives offer higher logic element counts while maintaining compatibility with the 1152-BBGA form factor. Designers should verify software compatibility using Quartus Prime tools when migrating between these specific variants.
