Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official manufacturer documentation to ensure correct configuration. Confirm that the requested part matches the exact 5SGXMA5N3F40C2G designation, as minor variations may exist. Check current availability status through authorized channels, as lead times can vary. Ensure compliance with RoHS specifications if required by your manufacturing standards. Validate package integrity upon receipt to prevent handling damage.

Selection Notes

Select this model when design requirements exceed the capacity of lower-tier Stratix V devices but do not necessitate the highest-end variants. Consider the 1517 FBGA package constraints during PCB layout planning. Evaluate power consumption profiles relative to the 0.87V-0.93V core voltage range. Compare resource utilization against the 490,000 LE limit to avoid over-provisioning or under-utilization of the fabric.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Altera Stratix V GX family, which targets high-performance computing and communication markets. The 'GX' designation typically indicates optimized transceiver capabilities, although specific transceiver counts are not detailed in the provided summary data. It sits between smaller logic density parts and larger enterprise-grade FPGAs in the product hierarchy.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other Stratix V GX models with similar logic densities, such as the 5SGXMA4K3F40C2G or 5SGXMA7K3F40I3N, subject to pin compatibility and resource verification. Cross-family migration to Agilex series requires architectural redesign. Verify pin-to-pin compatibility before substituting any alternative part number.
