5SGXMA4K2F40I2WN

Overview

The Altera 5SGXMA4K2F40I2WN is a Stratix V GX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) belonging to the 5SGXA4 device family. It features 420,000 logic elements and 158,500 adaptive logic modules (ALMs). The device integrates 37 Mbit of embedded memory and supports up to 696 I/Os. It includes 36 gigabit transceivers capable of data rates up to 14.1 Gb/s. Operating at a core voltage of 850 mV, it functions within an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The component is housed in a 1517-ball FCBGA package.

Feature Summary

• Integrates high-speed serial connectivity via 36 dedicated gigabit transceiver blocks supporting 14.1 Gb/s data rates.
• Provides extensive programmable logic resources with over 400,000 logic elements for complex digital designs.
• Includes substantial on-chip memory capacity to support buffering and storage requirements without external components.

Applications

• High-speed telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• Enterprise networking switches and routers
• Industrial automation control systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I2WN' against official manufacturer documentation to confirm pinout compatibility and environmental ratings. Confirm current lifecycle status as this series may be discontinued or subject to limited availability. Ensure supply chain sources provide valid traceability and authenticity certificates for critical electronic components.

Selection Notes

Compare the 420,000 LE count and 36 transceiver configuration against project requirements to ensure sufficient resource headroom. Evaluate the 1517-ball FCBGA package dimensions for PCB layout constraints. Consider thermal management solutions suitable for the specified operating temperature range and power consumption characteristics.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V GX family, designed for high-performance serial communication applications. It shares architectural similarities with other 5SGXA4 devices but offers specific I/O and packaging configurations. The Stratix V series represents a mature generation of FPGAs from Altera, now part of Intel FPGA products.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed direct substitute part numbers are not available in the provided reference material. Engineering changes should be validated through official Intel/Altera design migration guides or by consulting authorized distributors for equivalent legacy stock.
