5CEFA9F31C8N

The 5CEFA9F31C8N is a Cyclone® V E field-programmable gate array (FPGA) in an 896‑ball BGA (31×31) package. It integrates a large programmable fabric—301,000 logic elements—with substantial on-chip memory and a 480‑pin I/O footprint to address high-volume, cost-sensitive applications.

Built for designs that need a balance of integration, low-power operation, and I/O density, this commercial‑grade device is suited to industrial, wireless and wireline networking, and military applications where a compact FPGA solution is required.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity 301,000 logic elements for complex glue logic, protocol handling, and custom datapath implementation.
• Embedded Memory Approximately 13.59 Mbits of on‑chip RAM (14,251,008 bits) to support buffering, FIFOs, and on‑chip data storage.
• I/O Density 480 user I/O pins to connect multiple parallel interfaces, high‑speed peripherals, and external memory buses.
• Process and Core Voltage Manufactured on TSMC 28‑nm low‑power (28LP) process technology with a measured supply window of 1.07 V to 1.13 V for core operation.
• Adaptive Logic and DSP Architecture includes enhanced 8‑input adaptive logic modules and variable‑precision DSP blocks for efficient arithmetic and logic implementations.
• Memory and Reliability M10K embedded memory blocks with support for soft error correction code (ECC) for improved data integrity.
• Package and Mounting 896‑FBGA (31×31) surface‑mount package providing a compact footprint for board‑level integration.
• Operating Range Commercial operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C, RoHS‑compliant.

Typical Applications

• Wireless and Wireline Networking High logic density, embedded memory, and integrated transceiver support make the device suitable for packet processing, fronthaul/backhaul, and protocol offload engines.
• Industrial Control and Automation Large I/O count and on‑chip memory enable motor control, real‑time sensor aggregation, and deterministic control logic.
• Military Systems Programmable fabric and flexible DSP resources support custom signal processing and interface consolidation for mission‑specific applications.
• SoC and Heterogeneous Designs Family features such as hard memory controllers and processor integration options support FPGA+processor hybrid architectures and external memory subsystems.

Unique Advantages

• High Integration Density: 301,000 logic elements and approximately 13.59 Mbits of embedded memory reduce the need for external glue logic and SRAM, simplifying board design.
• Robust I/O Capability: 480 I/O pins provide flexibility to connect multiple high‑speed interfaces and parallel buses without external multiplexing.
• Low‑Power Silicon: Built on a 28‑nm low‑power process with a narrow core supply window, enabling predictable power budgeting for cost‑sensitive systems.
• Compact, Manufacturable Package: The 896‑FBGA (31×31) surface‑mount package offers a dense, repeatable footprint for volume production and automated assembly.
• Data Integrity Options: On‑chip M10K memory blocks with ECC support help protect critical state and buffering from soft errors.
• Family Ecosystem: Leverages Cyclone V family architecture and features—such as adaptive ALMs and DSP blocks—enabling migration across device densities within the family.
