EP1C4F400I7

The EP1C4F400I7 is a Cyclone® family FPGA from Intel, built on a 1.5-V, 0.13-µm SRAM process. This device provides a mid-range programmable logic fabric with 4,000 logic elements and embedded memory, suitable for data-path applications and system interfacing tasks.

Designed for surface-mount deployment in a 400-FBGA (21×21) package, the device targets industrial applications that require a balanced mix of logic density, I/O capacity and on-chip RAM while operating over an extended temperature range.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity  4,000 logic elements for implementing mid-range logic and control functions.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 78,336 bits of on-chip RAM for buffering, FIFOs and small lookup tables.
• I/O Resources  Up to 301 user I/O pins to support broad system connectivity and multiple interface standards.
• Clocking  Device family supports up to two PLLs for clock multiplication and phase control as documented for Cyclone devices.
• Package & Mounting  400-ball FineLine BGA (400-FBGA, 21×21) package, surface-mount ready for compact, high-density board designs.
• Voltage Supply  Nominal supply range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V to match low-voltage system domains.
• Operating Temperature & Grade  Rated for industrial operation from −40 °C to 100 °C.
• Environmental Compliance  RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Data-path processing  Implement packet handling, stream buffering, and mid-level datapath logic using the device’s logic elements and on-chip RAM.
• External memory interfaces  Use the Cyclone family’s memory support features to interface with DDR SDRAM and FCRAM in systems that require external memory.
• ASSP/ASIC interfacing  Provide glue logic and protocol bridging between ASSP/ASIC components and system peripherals thanks to abundant I/O and configurable logic.
• Industrial control and instrumentation  Leverage industrial temperature rating and wide I/O count for sensor aggregation, motor control logic and system supervision.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced mid-range logic density: 4,000 logic elements provide a compromise between cost and capability for many control and data-path designs.
• On-chip RAM for deterministic buffering: Approximately 78 kbits of embedded memory supports local storage without immediate dependence on external RAM.
• High I/O count for flexible system integration: Up to 301 user I/O pins enable multiple parallel interfaces and extensive peripheral connectivity.
• Compact BGA footprint: 400-FBGA (21×21) reduces board area while supporting high pin density for complex designs.
• Industrial-rated operation: −40 °C to 100 °C range makes the device suitable for extended-temperature industrial deployments.
• Standards-ready clocking: On-chip PLL resources provide integrated clock management for timing-critical designs.
