• DSP and FPGA Fabric (Stratix V family) — Family-level architecture includes redesigned adaptive logic modules, M20K memory blocks, and variable-precision DSP blocks suitable for high-precision signal processing.
• High-Speed Transceiver Capability (Family Feature) — Stratix V GS devices offer integrated transceivers with up to 14.1 Gbps data-rate capability for backplane and optical interface applications.
• I/O Density — 360 user I/O pins to support wide parallel interfaces and multiple high-speed links.
• Process and Core Voltage — Based on 28-nm process technology; device supply specified between 820 mV and 880 mV.
• Package — 780-ball BBGA (FCBGA) package; supplier device package listed as 780-HBGA (33×33) for compact, surface-mount board designs.
• Mounting and Grade — Surface-mount device with commercial grade operation; operating temperature range 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• High-performance DSP systems — Use the device’s large logic array, abundant embedded memory, and family DSP blocks for real-time filtering, beamforming, and signal reconstruction.
• Networking and Packet Processing — Leverage integrated transceiver capability and dense I/O for line-rate packet processing, traffic management, and backplane interfaces.
• Optical and Serial Communications — Implement optical interface PHYs and high-speed serial protocols using the Stratix V GS transceiver features.
• Compute Acceleration — Offload algorithmic kernels to FPGA fabric using the combination of logic elements, RAM, and DSP resources for custom acceleration tasks.

Unique Advantages

• Large, integrated resource set: 236,000 logic elements and approximately 13.3 Mbits of embedded memory reduce external component count and simplify system architecture.
• Transceiver-enabled DSP focus: GS-family transceivers plus variable-precision DSP blocks enable tightly coupled serial I/O and signal processing chains.
• High I/O availability: 360 I/O pins support multi-lane interfaces, broad peripheral connectivity, and dense board-level integration.
• Compact, surface-mount package: 780-ball FCBGA (33×33) footprint provides a high pin-count solution optimized for space-constrained PCBs.
• Commercial temperature support: Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C operation for a wide range of commercial and communications equipment.
• Standards-compliant build: RoHS compliance supports modern assembly and environmental requirements.
