5SGSMD4K2F40I2N

The 5SGSMD4K2F40I2N is an Intel Stratix® V GS field programmable gate array (FPGA) in a 1517-BBGA FCBGA package, delivered as an industrial-grade, surface-mount device. It pairs a high-density logic fabric with abundant embedded memory and DSP resources to address transceiver‑based, DSP‑centric designs.

This device is suited for bandwidth- and compute-intensive applications that require large logic capacity, extensive I/O, and integrated transceiver and DSP building blocks, while operating across an extended industrial temperature range.

Key Features

• High-density logic — 360,000 logic elements to implement complex, large-scale FPGA designs and custom system functions.
• Embedded memory — Approximately 19.5 Mbits of on-chip RAM (total RAM bits: 19,456,000) provided by M20K memory blocks for buffering, packet processing, and algorithm state storage.
• Variable‑precision DSP resources — Stratix V GS family DSP architecture supports extensive multiplier resources (up to 3,926 18×18 or 1,963 27×27 multipliers as defined for the GS variant) for high‑performance signal processing.
• Integrated transceivers — GS family devices include integrated serial transceivers with 14.1 Gbps capability for high‑speed backplane and optical interfaces.
• Core architecture and timing — Redesigned adaptive logic modules (ALMs), fractional PLLs, and a comprehensive fabric clocking network enable flexible, high‑performance logic implementation.
• Hard IP and ASIC path — Embedded HardCopy Block available in the Stratix V family to support hardened IP instantiation (including PCIe Gen1/Gen2/Gen3) and a low‑risk path to HardCopy V ASICs.
• Package and I/O — 1517‑BBGA (1517‑FBGA, 40×40) package with 696 I/Os for dense board integration and extensive external interfacing.
• Power and operating range — Core supply voltage 0.870–0.930 V and industrial operating temperature range from −40 °C to 100 °C for robust deployment in demanding environments.
• Manufacturing and compliance — Surface-mount package, industrial grade, RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Wireline and optical communications — High‑speed transceivers and large buffering capacity enable implementation of backplane and optical interface functions for 40G/100G systems.
• Digital signal processing and HPC — Extensive DSP multipliers and abundant embedded memory support FFTs, filtering, and other compute‑intensive DSP workloads in high‑performance computing and signal processing appliances.
• Broadcast and military communications — Industrial temperature rating, large logic capacity, and integrated transceivers make the device suitable for real‑time processing in broadcast and secure communications equipment.
• ASIC prototyping and migration — Use as a prototyping platform with a documented low‑risk, low‑cost path to HardCopy V ASICs for production scaling.

Unique Advantages

• Large logic fabric: 360,000 logic elements enable implementation of complex system-level functions and large digital designs on a single device, reducing board-level partitioning.
• Substantial embedded memory: Approximately 19.5 Mbits of RAM provided by M20K blocks supports deep buffering and high-throughput data paths without external memory.
• DSP-optimized architecture: GS variant DSP resources (up to 3,926 18×18 or 1,963 27×27 multipliers) accelerate numeric and signal-processing algorithms directly in fabric.
• High‑speed serial connectivity: Integrated 14.1 Gbps transceivers enable high-bandwidth links for backplane and optical interfaces while minimizing external PHY components.
• Industrial robustness: Surface-mount 1517-BBGA package with a −40 °C to 100 °C operating range supports deployment in demanding environments.
• Hard IP and ASIC path: Embedded HardCopy Block and documented transition path to HardCopy V ASICs help reduce development risk and support volume migration strategies.
