EP4CE10F17C6

The EP4CE10F17C6 is a commercial-grade Cyclone IV E field programmable gate array (FPGA) offered by Intel. It provides a mid-range programmable fabric suitable for custom digital logic, I/O-intensive designs, and commercial embedded applications that require flexible hardware reconfiguration.

With 10,320 logic elements, substantial on-chip RAM, and broad I/O capability in a compact 256-LBGA package, this device balances integration and board-level density while operating from a 1.15 V to 1.25 V core supply.

Key Features

• Core Capacity 10,320 logic elements provide the programmable fabric for implementing custom digital logic and control functions.
• Embedded Memory 423,936 total RAM bits (approximately 0.424 Mbits) of on-chip memory to support buffering, look-up tables, and small data structures.
• I/O Resources 179 I/O pins to support multiple external interfaces and signal connections directly from the FPGA package.
• Power and Supply Core supply voltage range of 1.15 V to 1.25 V, enabling compatibility with designs targeting Cyclone IV E core requirements.
• Package and Mounting 256-LBGA package (supplier device package: 256-FBGA, 17 × 17) with surface-mount packaging for compact board integration.
• Operating Range Commercial grade device rated for 0 °C to 85 °C operation.
• Regulatory RoHS-compliant material status.
• Family Documentation Part of the Cyclone IV device family with detailed device handbook and device datasheet available for design and verification guidance.

Typical Applications

• Commercial Embedded Systems — Implement custom control, glue logic, and peripheral interfacing for commercial equipment using the device's logic density and I/O count.
• Prototyping and Development — Rapidly evaluate and iterate digital designs that require reprogrammable hardware with moderate logic and memory needs.
• Interface and Protocol Bridging — Use the available I/Os and programmable fabric to create protocol translators or consolidate multiple interfaces on a single device.
• Custom Logic and Timing Functions — Deploy the FPGA for timing-critical control, sequencing, and finite-state-machine implementations in commercial applications.

Unique Advantages

• Moderate Logic Density: 10,320 logic elements deliver the capacity to implement complex state machines and logic blocks without moving to larger devices.
• On-Chip Memory: Approximately 0.424 Mbits of embedded RAM reduces dependency on external memory for small buffering and lookup tasks.
• High I/O Count: 179 I/Os support extensive external connectivity and simplify board-level routing by consolidating signals into a single package.
• Compact Package: 256-LBGA (256-FBGA, 17 × 17) surface-mount package minimizes board footprint while maintaining accessibility to many I/O pins.
• Commercial Temperature and RoHS Compliance: Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C operation and RoHS-compliant for mainstream commercial product deployments.
• Well-Documented Family: Inclusion in the Cyclone IV device handbook and datasheet set provides designers with established documentation for implementation and verification.
