Hello, 

 

I am calculating Single Event Upset ratio of Cyclone V to check if it is within acceptable range. For this calculation, I need  

 

-SEE Cross Section(cm2/bit) 

-SEE Cross Section(cm2/device) 

 

parameters. Does anybody knows how to find them? I have reached some distributors which are of no help. 

 

Cyclone V part number is 5CGXFC7D6F31I7.
