5SGXMA7H2F35C3G

Overview

The Altera 5SGXMA7H2F35C3G is a Stratix V GX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) designed for high-performance digital signal processing and communication applications. It features 622,000 logic elements and 234,720 Adaptive Logic Modules (ALMs). The device includes 50 Mbit of embedded memory and supports data rates up to 14.1 Gb/s via its transceivers. Operating at a core voltage of 0.82V to 0.88V, it is housed in a 1152-ball FCBGA package with dimensions of 35x35 mm. The component operates within a junction temperature range of 0°C to 85°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrates high-speed serial transceivers capable of 14.1 Gb/s data rates for advanced interconnectivity.
• Provides extensive programmable logic resources through over 600,000 logic elements and dedicated ALMs.
• Includes substantial on-chip embedded memory blocks to support complex buffering and storage requirements.

Applications

• High-speed telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• Digital signal processing systems requiring multi-gigabit throughput
• Industrial automation controllers demanding high reliability

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Intel/Altera documentation to ensure correct speed grade and temperature rating. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level prior to assembly planning. Check for any recent Product Change Notifications regarding labeling or packaging updates that may affect inventory management.

Selection Notes

Select this model when design requirements exceed the capacity of lower-tier Stratix families but do not necessitate the highest-end Stratix IV or V SX variants. Evaluate thermal dissipation needs carefully due to the high density of logic elements and active transceivers. Ensure the PCB layout supports the 1152-ball BGA footprint and associated power delivery network specifications.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Stratix V GX family, which targets gigabit communications and DSP-intensive applications. It sits between the standard Stratix V and the higher-performance Stratix V SX series in terms of transceiver capabilities and logic density. The part represents a mature generation of FPGA technology now managed by Intel after the acquisition of Altera.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-to-pin replacements are generally unavailable within the same form factor due to architectural differences. Consider migrating to Intel Agilex or Stratix 10 families for modernized performance, though these require significant redesign. Verify if older Stratix V variants with compatible I/O counts can be adapted if pinout flexibility allows.
