Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Altera documentation to ensure correct package type and temperature rating. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current manufacturer datasheets before procurement. Ensure ESD protection protocols are followed during handling due to moisture sensitivity classification.

Selection Notes

Select this model when 490,000 logic elements and 14.1 Gb/s transceiver speeds are required. Compare ALM density and embedded memory size against alternative Stratix V variants to match specific design constraints. Verify that the 1517-ball FCBGA footprint aligns with existing PCB layout capabilities.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V GX family, which targets high-speed serial I/O applications. It shares architectural similarities with other 5SGX series devices but offers distinct logic and memory configurations. The GX designation indicates optimized transceiver performance for serial communications.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Stratix V GX devices with comparable logic counts and package types, such as the 5SGXMA5N1F40C2G or 5SGXMA5K1F40C2G, provided pin compatibility and electrical specifications match the original design requirements.
