Key electrical and mechanical differences between the two devices
| Parameter | 5CEBA7F23C8N | 5CEBA2U15I7N | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Family / Series | Cyclone V E | Cyclone V E | Both belong to the Cyclone V E family, so they share the same architecture and toolchain support. |
| Logic Elements (LE) | 149,500 | 25,000 | LE count determines the amount of programmable logic available; a large mismatch means the parts are not functionally interchangeable for complex designs. |
| Package | FBGA-484 | UBGA-324 | Different package footprints and ball counts prevent direct PCB drop-in replacement. |
| Operating Temperature Range | 0°C to +85°C (Commercial) | -40°C to +100°C (Industrial) | Temperature grade affects suitability for harsh environments and reliability in industrial applications. |
| Speed Grade | 8 | 7 | Speed grade influences maximum operating frequency and timing closure; a faster grade may be required for high-performance designs. |
| Embedded Memory (M10K blocks) | 686 | 140 | On-chip memory capacity affects buffering, FIFO depth, and data storage capabilities within the FPGA. |
| Number of I/O Pins | 224 | 176 | I/O count determines how many external signals the device can interface with, impacting system connectivity. |
| Supply Voltage (Core) | 1.1 V | 1.1 V | Core voltage must match the board power design; identical values simplify power supply reuse. |
| Transceiver Count | 6 | 3 | Transceivers enable high-speed serial interfaces; fewer transceivers limit multi-channel communication options. |

Frequently asked questions
What are the key differences between the 5CEBA7F23C8N and the 5CEBA2U15I7N?
The 5CEBA7F23C8N is a Cyclone V E FPGA with 150K logic elements in a 484-pin FBGA package, while the 5CEBA2U15I7N is a Cyclone V E FPGA with 25K logic elements in a 324-pin UBGA package. They differ in logic density, package type, pin count, and speed grade.
Are the 5CEBA7F23C8N and 5CEBA2U15I7N pin-to-pin compatible?
No. The 5CEBA7F23C8N uses a 484-pin FBGA package, and the 5CEBA2U15I7N uses a 324-pin UBGA package. The different package types, pin counts, and ball maps prevent direct pin-to-pin compatibility.
Can the 5CEBA2U15I7N be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the 5CEBA7F23C8N?
No. The two devices have different logic densities, package footprints, and pin assignments. A direct drop-in replacement is not possible without redesigning the PCB and validating all electrical and functional requirements.
What are the operating temperature ranges for these two devices?
The 5CEBA7F23C8N has a commercial temperature grade with a case temperature range of 0°C to 85°C. The 5CEBA2U15I7N has an industrial temperature grade with a case temperature range of -40°C to 100°C.
Do both devices belong to the same FPGA family?
Yes. Both the 5CEBA7F23C8N and the 5CEBA2U15I7N are members of the Intel (formerly Altera) Cyclone V E FPGA family, sharing the same architecture and supported development tools.
What logic element counts do these two FPGAs offer?
The 5CEBA7F23C8N provides 150,000 logic elements. The 5CEBA2U15I7N provides 25,000 logic elements. The 5CEBA7F23C8N offers significantly higher logic capacity.
Which device is better suited for space-constrained designs?
The 5CEBA2U15I7N is better suited for space-constrained designs because it uses a smaller 324-pin UBGA package, whereas the 5CEBA7F23C8N uses a larger 484-pin FBGA package.
Are the speed grades of these two devices the same?
No. The 5CEBA7F23C8N has a speed grade of 8, and the 5CEBA2U15I7N has a speed grade of 7. The speed grade affects timing performance and must be considered during design migration.
