5CEFA7M15I7N

The 5CEFA7M15I7N is an Intel Cyclone V E series FPGA supplied in a 484-LFBGA (484-MBGA 15×15) surface-mount package and specified for industrial-grade applications. This FPGA integrates a large programmable fabric with abundant embedded memory and I/O, targeting industrial, wireless and wireline, and military applications that require a balance of logic capacity, on-chip RAM, and robust operating range.

Built around the Cyclone V family architecture, the device emphasizes integration and power-efficient operation for designs that need substantial logic resources, deterministic I/O, and deployed-environment temperature support.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity  Approximately 149,500 logic elements, providing broad implementation capacity for complex digital designs.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 7.88 Mbits of on-chip RAM to support buffers, FIFOs, and local storage without external memory in many use cases.
• I/O Count  240 user I/O pins for connecting peripherals, sensors, and external interfaces.
• Packaging & Mounting  484-LFBGA (supplier package 484-MBGA 15×15) in a surface-mount form factor for high-density board layouts.
• Voltage Supply  Core voltage range specified at 1.07 V to 1.13 V for stable low-voltage operation consistent with the Cyclone V family.
• Operating Temperature  Industrial temperature grade with a specified range of −40 °C to 100 °C for deployed environments.
• Series-Level Architecture  Cyclone V family features such as an enhanced 8-input adaptive logic module (ALM), variable-precision DSP blocks, hard memory controllers, and integrated transceivers are part of the Cyclone V device overview for the series.
• Regulatory Status  RoHS-compliant.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control Systems  Use the device for real-time control, I/O aggregation, and protocol bridging where industrial temperature range and robust logic resources are required.
• Wireless and Wireline Equipment  Leverage the Cyclone V series’ integrated transceivers and memory controllers for packet processing, interface bridging, and timing-critical data paths.
• Defense and Military Systems  Applicable where industrial-grade temperature capability and a high count of logic elements and I/O are needed for custom signal processing and control logic.
• SoC and Embedded Processing Platforms  Suitable for designs that integrate FPGA fabric with hard IP blocks from the Cyclone V series to consolidate functions and reduce external component count.

Unique Advantages

• High Logic Density: Approximately 149,500 logic elements enable substantial on-chip implementation of custom logic and accelerators.
• Significant On-Chip RAM: Roughly 7.88 Mbits of embedded memory reduces reliance on external memory for many buffering and storage needs.
• Robust I/O and Integration: 240 I/O pins and series-level transceiver and memory-controller features support complex interfacing and high-bandwidth connectivity.
• Industrial Temperature Range: Rated from −40 °C to 100 °C to meet deployment requirements in demanding environmental conditions.
• Compact, Surface-Mount Package: 484-LFBGA (15×15) format offers a dense footprint for space-constrained PCB designs.
• RoHS-Compliant: Meets RoHS requirements for environmentally conscious designs and supply chains.
