5SGXMA5K1F40I2G

Overview

The Altera 5SGXMA5K1F40I2G is a Stratix V GX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) designed for high-performance digital signal processing and networking applications. It features 490,000 logic elements and 185,000 Adaptive Logic Modules (ALMs). The device integrates 37 Mbit of embedded memory and supports up to 696 I/O pins. It includes 36 transceivers capable of data rates up to 14.1 Gb/s. The core operating voltage is specified at 0.87V to 0.93V. It operates within a junction temperature range of -40°C to 100°C and is housed in a 1517-ball FCBGA package.

Feature Summary

• High-density programmable logic architecture with extensive embedded memory resources
• High-speed serial connectivity via multiple gigabit transceivers
• Robust I/O flexibility supporting various interface standards

Applications

• Telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• Data center interconnects and switching systems
• Industrial automation control systems

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels due to the presence of counterfeit risks in the market. Confirm the specific suffix codes match the required electrical and mechanical specifications. Check for moisture sensitivity level compliance and storage conditions prior to assembly. Ensure that the revision history aligns with current design requirements.

Selection Notes

Compare the 5SGXMA5K1F40I2G against other Stratix V variants based on logic density and transceiver count requirements. Evaluate power consumption profiles under maximum load conditions. Assess thermal management solutions suitable for the FCBGA package form factor. Verify software toolchain compatibility with Quartus Prime Pro Edition for design implementation.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V GX family, which targets high-speed serial communication applications. It sits alongside other models like the 5SGXEA series, differing primarily in feature sets and target markets. The GX series emphasizes transceiver performance and low-power operation compared to general-purpose FPGA families.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-to-pin replacements may not exist within the same family due to varying logic densities. Consider upgrading to Agilex or Stratix 10 families for enhanced performance, though this requires schematic and layout redesigns. Consult official cross-reference guides for functional equivalents.
