Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized channels due to potential availability constraints. Confirm that the specific suffix matches required environmental ratings and pin configurations. Check for obsolescence notices or lifecycle status updates from Intel. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints and thermal management solutions before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when requiring a balance of moderate logic density and high-speed I/O capabilities. Compare against other Stratix V variants if higher logic counts or different package sizes are needed. Consider power consumption profiles relative to available cooling infrastructure. Validate that the 1517-pin footprint fits within board space limitations.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V GX family, designed for applications demanding high-speed serial connectivity. It complements lower-density models like the 5SGXEA series and higher-capacity options within the broader Stratix portfolio. The GX designation highlights its focus on transceiver-intensive use cases compared to standard Stratix V devices.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other 5SGXMA5N2F40C3 variants with differing suffixes indicating package or temperature variations. Cross-reference pinouts and electrical specifications carefully. No direct equivalent part numbers are confirmed in public documentation.
