Replacement verdict
Compatible functional replacement candidate
The 5CEBA4F23C7N and 5CEBA5U19C7N are both Intel Cyclone V FPGAs sharing the same logic family, speed grade, and temperature grade, but they differ in logic density, package, and I/O count. The 5CEBA5U19C7N offers higher logic capacity and a more compact package, making it a viable functional upgrade candidate where board space and logic resources permit, though pinout and I/O voltage validation are required before substitution.

Frequently asked questions
What are the 5CEBA4F23C7N and 5CEBA5U19C7N devices?
Both are Intel (formerly Altera) Cyclone V FPGAs. The 5CEBA4F23C7N belongs to the Cyclone V E family with 49,000 logic elements (LEs) in a 484-pin FBGA package, while the 5CEBA5U19C7N belongs to the Cyclone V SE family with 77,000 LEs in a 484-pin UBGA package. Both are specified with a C7 speed grade and are lead-free (N suffix).
Can the 5CEBA4F23C7N and 5CEBA5U19C7N be used interchangeably?
No. They differ in logic density (49K vs 77K LEs), device family (Cyclone V E vs Cyclone V SE), package type (FBGA vs UBGA), and hard IP content. The Cyclone V SE variant includes a hard processor system (HPS) with dual ARM Cortex-A9 cores, while the Cyclone V E variant does not. Pinouts and PCB footprints are not compatible, so direct substitution is not possible.
What is the difference in logic capacity between the two devices?
The 5CEBA4F23C7N provides 49,000 logic elements (LEs), while the 5CEBA5U19C7N provides 77,000 LEs. This gives the 5CEBA5U19C7N approximately 57% more logic capacity, which affects resource allocation for user logic, memory, and DSP blocks.
Do both devices include a hard processor system (HPS)?
No. The 5CEBA5U19C7N is a Cyclone V SE device and includes a hard processor system with dual ARM Cortex-A9 MPCore processors. The 5CEBA4F23C7N is a Cyclone V E device and does not contain an HPS. This is a fundamental architectural difference that impacts system design and software requirements.
Are the packages of the 5CEBA4F23C7N and 5CEBA5U19C7N compatible?
No. The 5CEBA4F23C7N uses a 484-pin FineLine BGA (FBGA) package, while the 5CEBA5U19C7N uses a 484-pin Ultra FineLine BGA (UBGA) package. Although both have 484 pins, the ball pitch, ball map, and physical dimensions differ, so they are not footprint-compatible and cannot be interchanged on the same PCB without redesign.
What is the meaning of the C7 speed grade in both part numbers?
The C7 suffix indicates the speed grade of the device. In Intel Cyclone V FPGAs, C7 denotes a commercial temperature range (0°C to 85°C junction) and a specific speed grade. Both the 5CEBA4F23C7N and 5CEBA5U19C7N share the same C7 speed grade, meaning their timing characteristics are specified under the same operating conditions, though absolute performance depends on the specific device and design.
What does the N suffix indicate on both part numbers?
The N suffix indicates that the device is lead-free (Pb-free) and RoHS-compliant. Both the 5CEBA4F23C7N and 5CEBA5U19C7N are lead-free parts, which is required for many modern commercial and industrial applications.
Which device should be selected for an application requiring an embedded processor?
For applications requiring an integrated hard processor, the 5CEBA5U19C7N is the appropriate choice because it includes a dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 HPS. The 5CEBA4F23C7N does not have an HPS, so a soft-core processor or external processor would be required if processing capability is needed.
Are the 5CEBA4F23C7N and 5CEBA5U19C7N available in the same temperature grade?
Yes. Both devices are offered in the C7 speed grade, which corresponds to the commercial temperature range (0°C to 85°C junction temperature). Neither part number indicates an industrial or extended temperature grade. For industrial temperature ranges, different suffixes would be required, and those variants are not covered by these specific part numbers.
