Replacement verdict
Compatible functional replacement candidate
The 5CEBA2F23C8N is a lower-density Cyclone V FPGA in the same F23 package and same family as the 5CEBA7F23C7N, making it a viable functional replacement candidate only where reduced logic capacity and slower speed grade are acceptable. Designers must validate logic utilization, timing closure, and transceiver requirements before substituting.

Key differences
Rows are prioritized by design impact. Highlighted values require attention during substitution.
Key electrical and mechanical differences between the two devices
| Parameter | 5CEBA7F23C7N | 5CEBA2F23C8N | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Logic Elements (LEs) | 150,000 | 25,000 | Logic element count determines the amount of programmable logic available for implementing custom digital functions; a large difference means the two devices are not functionally interchangeable for complex designs. |
| Total RAM Bits | 6,912,000 | 1,080,000 | Embedded memory capacity affects the ability to buffer data and implement memory-intensive functions; the significant difference limits substitutability for memory-heavy applications. |
| Number of I/Os | 240 | 240 | I/O count determines how many external signals the device can interface with; matching counts support similar board-level connectivity. |
| Package / Case | 484-FBGA | 484-FBGA | Package type and footprint must match for physical board compatibility; identical packages allow the same PCB land pattern to be used. |
| Speed Grade | 7 | 8 | Speed grade indicates the maximum operating frequency and timing performance; a different grade affects achievable clock rates and timing closure. |
| Operating Temperature Range | 0°C to 85°C (Commercial) | 0°C to 85°C (Commercial) | Temperature range defines the environmental conditions in which the device can reliably operate; matching ranges support use in the same thermal environments. |
| Supply Voltage | 1.1 V (Core) | 1.1 V (Core) | Core supply voltage must be compatible with the board power design; identical voltages simplify power delivery and decoupling requirements. |
| Number of PLLs | 8 | 4 | PLLs generate and synchronize clock signals; a different count affects clocking flexibility and the number of independent clock domains supported. |
| Embedded Multipliers (18x18) | 312 | 66 | Dedicated multipliers accelerate DSP operations; the large difference limits substitutability for arithmetic-intensive designs. |

Frequently asked questions
What are the 5CEBA7F23C7N and 5CEBA2F23C8N devices?
Both are Intel (formerly Altera) Cyclone V E series field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) in the 23 mm x 23 mm FBGA package with 484 balls (F23). The 5CEBA7F23C7N is the larger logic-density variant with 149,500 logic elements (LEs), while the 5CEBA2F23C8N has 25,000 LEs. Both are lead-free (N suffix) and specified for commercial temperature operation.
What is the difference in logic capacity between the 5CEBA7F23C7N and 5CEBA2F23C8N?
The 5CEBA7F23C7N provides 149,500 logic elements, 9,560 kbit of embedded memory, and 836 18x18 multipliers. The 5CEBA2F23C8N provides 25,000 logic elements, 1,530 kbit of embedded memory, and 150 18x18 multipliers. The 5CEBA7F23C7N therefore offers roughly six times the logic capacity and substantially more memory and DSP resources.
Do the 5CEBA7F23C7N and 5CEBA2F23C8N use the same package and pinout?
Yes. Both devices are offered in the same 484-ball FBGA package designated F23 (23 mm x 23 mm). However, because the two devices have different logic densities, the user I/O count and the assignment of I/O pins can differ. Designers must verify pin assignments against the respective device pin-out files before considering any board-level interchange.
What do the speed grade suffixes C7 and C8 indicate on these Cyclone V E FPGAs?
The suffix C7 on the 5CEBA7F23C7N denotes a faster speed grade than the C8 suffix on the 5CEBA2F23C8N. In Intel Cyclone V nomenclature, a lower number after the C indicates a faster speed grade. The C7 device therefore supports higher maximum operating frequencies and tighter timing than the C8 device under the same conditions.
Are the 5CEBA7F23C7N and 5CEBA2F23C8N pin-to-pin compatible for direct replacement?
No. Although both use the same F23 484-ball FBGA package, they differ in logic density, I/O count, embedded memory, and DSP resources, and they carry different speed grades. A direct drop-in replacement is not supported. Any substitution requires full validation of pin assignments, power requirements, configuration scheme, and timing against Intel documentation for the target design.
What configuration methods do the 5CEBA7F23C7N and 5CEBA2F23C8N support?
Both Cyclone V E devices support active serial (AS), passive serial (PS), fast passive parallel (FPP), and JTAG configuration. They can be configured from external serial configuration devices, parallel flash, or a host controller. Configuration voltage and MSEL pin settings must be set according to the specific device datasheet and the chosen configuration scheme.
What are the typical applications for the 5CEBA7F23C7N versus the 5CEBA2F23C8N?
The 5CEBA7F23C7N, with 149,500 LEs and 836 multipliers, suits higher-complexity tasks such as industrial imaging, motor control with advanced algorithms, and protocol bridging requiring significant DSP. The 5CEBA2F23C8N, with 25,000 LEs and 150 multipliers, is better suited to lower-cost, lower-power control, interface expansion, and simple data acquisition where logic demand is modest.
Do the 5CEBA7F23C7N and 5CEBA2F23C8N have the same power supply requirements?
Both devices belong to the Cyclone V E family and use the same nominal supply rails, typically 1.1 V core (VCC), 2.5 V or 3.3 V I/O (VCCIO), and auxiliary rails such as 2.5 V for PLL and transceiver blocks where applicable. Actual current consumption and decoupling requirements differ because the 5CEBA7F23C7N has significantly more logic and memory resources. Power estimation should be performed per device using Intel's Early Power Estimator or PowerPlay tools.
