5SGSMD5K2F40C2LN

The 5SGSMD5K2F40C2LN is a Stratix® V GS field-programmable gate array (FPGA) from Intel, built on the Stratix V family architecture. It provides extensive programmable logic, abundant embedded memory and DSP resources, and integrated high-speed transceiver capability — designed for transceiver-centric and DSP-focused applications.

This device targets high-performance systems requiring large logic capacity, substantial on-chip RAM, and dense I/O in a 1517-ball FCBGA package, while operating within a commercial temperature range and low core-voltage window.

Key Features

• Process & Core Architecture — Stratix V family device built on a 28-nm process with the family’s adaptive logic module (ALM) architecture and multi-track routing and fabric clocking networks.
• Logic Capacity — 457,000 logic elements to support large, complex designs and highly parallel implementations.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 39.9 Mbits of on-chip RAM (39,936,000 bits) organized in M20K blocks for high-capacity buffering and storage.
• DSP & Hard-IP Resources — Stratix V GS family includes variable-precision DSP blocks (family-level support includes up to 3,926 18×18 or 1,963 27×27 multipliers) and Embedded HardCopy Block for hardening IP such as PCIe Gen3/Gen2/Gen1 instantiations.
• High-Speed Transceivers — GS variant family supports integrated transceivers with up to 14.1 Gbps data-rate capability for backplane and optical interface applications.
• I/O & Package — 696 I/O pins in a 1517-ball BBGA (FCBGA, supplier package 1517-FBGA 40×40) for dense external interfacing and board-level routing.
• Power & Operating Range — Core supply specified at 820 mV to 880 mV; device rated for commercial operation from 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• High-performance DSP systems — Large DSP block availability and substantial embedded memory make the device suitable for signal processing tasks requiring variable-precision multiplication and large on-chip buffering.
• Transceiver-based communications — Integrated transceivers with 14.1 Gbps capability address backplane, optical interface, and other high-bandwidth link implementations.
• Network and packet-processing equipment — High logic density and dense I/O enable complex packet-processing pipelines and protocol offload implementations.
• Prototyping and ASIC-migration — Stratix V family supports a low-risk path to HardCopy V ASICs, useful for prototyping designs intended for higher-volume production.

Unique Advantages

• Massive logic resources: 457,000 logic elements provide headroom for complex state machines, deep pipelines, and parallel compute fabrics without offloading to external logic.
• Substantial on-chip memory: Approximately 39.9 Mbits of embedded RAM in M20K blocks reduces reliance on external memory for buffering and temporary storage.
• Extensive DSP capability: Family-level support for thousands of multipliers enables high-precision and high-throughput DSP implementations.
• High-speed serial connectivity: Integrated transceivers with 14.1 Gbps capability support demanding link speeds for optical and backplane interfaces.
• Dense I/O in a compact FCBGA: 696 I/Os in a 1517-ball package provide flexibility for interfacing with high-pin-count systems while maintaining a 40×40 supplier footprint.
• Commercial-grade operating window with RoHS compliance: Suitable for commercial applications requiring standard temperature operation and environmental compliance.
