5SGXMA4H3F35C4WN

Overview

The Altera 5SGXMA4H3F35C4WN is a Stratix V GX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) designed for high-performance digital signal processing and networking applications. It features 15,850 Adaptive Logic Modules (ALMs), equivalent to 420,000 logic elements, and includes 37 Mbits of embedded memory. The device integrates 24 transceivers capable of data rates up to 14.1 Gb/s. It operates within a junction temperature range of 0°C to 85°C and utilizes an FCBGA package with 1152 pins.

Feature Summary

• Integrates 24 high-speed transceivers supporting serial data transmission at rates up to 14.1 Gb/s for complex interconnect requirements.
• Provides substantial programmable logic capacity through 15,850 Adaptive Logic Modules and significant on-chip memory resources.
• Designed for surface-mount installation in compact form factors suitable for dense system integration.

Applications

• High-speed telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• Advanced digital signal processing systems
• Enterprise networking switches and routers

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'W' against official manufacturer documentation to confirm its exact functional implication, as standard datasheets may not explicitly detail every suffix variation. Ensure compatibility with the required operating temperature range and power delivery specifications before procurement. Cross-reference the part number with current lifecycle status to confirm availability and support duration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a balance of moderate logic density and high-speed serial connectivity is required. The Stratix V GX series is appropriate for designs needing multiple gigabit transceivers without the extreme capacity of larger Stratix V devices. Evaluate power consumption and thermal management capabilities relative to the 1152-pin package constraints during the initial design phase.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Stratix V GX family, which targets high-performance computing and communications markets. It sits between lower-density Cyclone/Arria devices and higher-end Stratix V GT/GS families. The GX variant specifically emphasizes transceiver performance alongside robust logic fabric capabilities for scalable system architectures.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-to-pin replacements are limited due to the proprietary architecture. Consider Stratix V variants with similar ALM counts or Arria 10 devices for modern alternatives, subject to software migration efforts using Quartus Prime software.
