• DSP and Transceiver Capability  Stratix V GS family features variable-precision DSP blocks and integrated transceivers with 14.1-Gbps data-rate capability for transceiver-based DSP workloads.
• I/O Density  Up to 696 general-purpose I/Os to support wide parallel interfaces and multi-channel connectivity.
• Process and Fabric  Stratix V family architecture includes redesigned adaptive logic modules (ALMs), multi-track routing, and comprehensive fabric clocking networks (as described in Stratix V family documentation).
• Power  Core supply range specified at 820 mV to 880 mV for device power planning.
• Package & Mounting  1517-BBGA FCBGA (supplier package: 1517-FBGA, 40×40), surface-mount for standard board assembly.
• Operating Range  Commercial operating temperature from 0 °C to 85 °C.
• System Integration  Family-level features include fractional PLLs and an Embedded HardCopy Block for hardened IP instantiation (as documented for Stratix V devices).
• RoHS Compliant  Device meets RoHS environmental compliance requirements.

Typical Applications

• High-performance DSP systems  Variable-precision DSP blocks and dense logic make this FPGA suitable for compute-heavy signal processing and algorithm acceleration.
• Optical and backplane transceiver systems  Integrated transceivers with high data-rate capability support backplane and optical interface applications.
• Network and packet processing  Large logic and memory resources enable implementation of packet processing, traffic management, and related networking functions.
• Broadcast and high-performance computing  Device resources support DSP-centric workloads and high-bandwidth data movement required in broadcast and HPC subsystems.

Unique Advantages

• High logic density: 360,000 logic elements provide the capacity to implement large, complex designs without immediate partitioning.
• Substantial on-chip memory: Approximately 19.456 Mbits of embedded RAM reduce external memory dependency and lower system-level latency.
• Transceiver-enabled DSP: Family-level integrated transceivers and variable-precision DSP blocks enable combined high-throughput I/O and compute in one device.
• Extensive I/O footprint: 696 I/Os support multi-channel interfaces and broad peripheral connectivity on a single FPGA.
• Compact surface-mount package: 1517-BBGA (40×40) package supports high-density board designs while maintaining robust electrical connections.
• Documented Stratix V architecture: Designers can rely on Stratix V device documentation for architecture details such as ALMs, M20K memory blocks, PLLs, and Embedded HardCopy capabilities.
