Overview of 5SGSMD5K2F40C2L – Stratix® V GS Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC
The 5SGSMD5K2F40C2L is a Stratix V GS variant FPGA delivering a high-density, DSP-optimized fabric for transceiver-based, data- and signal-processing applications. Built on the Stratix V architecture, this device targets bandwidth- and DSP-centric markets such as optical transport, broadcast, wireline communications, and high-performance computing.
Key value comes from a large logic and memory capacity combined with integrated transceivers and dedicated DSP resources, enabling complex signal processing and high-throughput systems in a single surface-mount 1517-BBGA package.
Key Features
- Logic Capacity 457,000 logic elements for large-scale implementable designs and complex system integration.
- Embedded Memory Approximately 39.94 Mbits of on-chip RAM (Total Ram Bits: 39,936,000) and support for M20K 20-Kbit embedded memory blocks as part of the Stratix V architecture.
- DSP Resources GS-family variable-precision DSP blocks (family-level support for up to 3,926 18×18 or 1,963 27×27 multipliers) for high-performance, precision signal processing.
- High-speed Transceivers Integrated transceivers with 14.1-Gbps data-rate capability (Stratix V GS family), suitable for backplane and optical interface applications.
- Process and Core Voltage 28-nm device architecture with a specified core voltage range of 0.820–0.880 V for this part.
- I/O and Packaging 696 user I/O pins in a 1517-BBGA (FCBGA) package; supplier package listed as 1517-FBGA (40×40). Surface-mount design suitable for compact board layouts.
- Clocking and System Fabric Fabric clocking network with fractional PLLs and multi-track routing architecture as part of the Stratix V device family.
- Commercial Temperature Grade & Compliance Commercial operating range 0°C to 85°C and RoHS-compliant.
Typical Applications
- Optical Transport & High-Speed Networking Implements packet processing, traffic management, and serial interfaces for 40G/100G-class systems using integrated transceivers.
- DSP-Centric Systems Broadcast, wireline, and compute-intensive applications that require dense DSP resources and embedded memory for filtering, FFTs, and other signal-processing algorithms.
- Test & Measurement Equipment High-bandwidth data capture and real-time processing in network and optical test systems using the device’s high logic density and transceiver capability.
- Prototype-to-ASIC Path Design teams targeting production can prototype on Stratix V and pursue a low-risk, low-cost migration to HardCopy® V ASICs where applicable.
Unique Advantages
- Large, DSP-Optimized Fabric: High logic element count combined with family DSP multiplier support enables complex, high-throughput signal-processing designs.
- Integrated High-Speed I/O: Built-in transceivers rated at 14.1 Gbps (GS family) reduce external serialization components and simplify high-speed link design.
- Significant On-Chip Memory: Approximately 39.94 Mbits of embedded RAM supports large buffering, FIFOs, and on-chip data structures without external memory.
- Compact, Production-Ready Package: 1517-BBGA FCBGA (40×40) surface-mount package with 696 I/O enables dense board integration for space-constrained systems.
- Commercial-Grade Reliability: Specified for 0°C to 85°C operation with RoHS compliance for mainstream industrial and communications applications.
- Prototype-to-Production Path: Stratix V family features, including Embedded HardCopy Block support for PCIe IP hardening, provide options for later ASIC conversion.
