EP4CE15E22C6N

The EP4CE15E22C6N is a Cyclone IV E family FPGA from Intel, offering a mid-range programmable logic solution with 15,408 logic elements and embedded on-chip RAM. It is supplied in a 144-LQFP exposed-pad surface-mount package and is intended for commercial-grade applications within a 0 °C to 85 °C operating range.

With 81 general-purpose I/O pins, a core supply voltage between 1.15 V and 1.25 V, and approximately 0.52 Mbits of embedded memory (516,096 bits), this device addresses designs that require integrated logic, memory, and I/O in a compact surface-mount footprint. Series documentation includes detailed operating conditions, DC characteristics and switching specifications for system-level integration.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 15,408 logic elements provide mid-range programmable logic resources for custom digital functions and control logic.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 0.52 Mbits of on-chip RAM (516,096 bits) for data buffering, state machines, and small FIFO or scratchpad storage.
• I/O Count — 81 available I/O pins suitable for interfacing with peripherals, sensors, and external logic.
• Power and Core Voltage — Core supply voltage range of 1.15 V to 1.25 V to match system power-rail constraints and allow predictable power planning.
• Package and Mounting — 144-LQFP exposed-pad package with surface-mount mounting; supplier package referenced as 144-EQFP (20×20).
• Commercial Operating Range — Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C operation and shipped RoHS compliant.
• Comprehensive Series Documentation — Cyclone IV device handbook and datasheet content provide detailed operating conditions, absolute maximum ratings, DC characteristics, supply current, and switching characteristics to support design and validation.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Control Systems — Use the device’s programmable logic and I/O to implement control, glue logic, and custom state machines in commercial embedded products.
• Interface Bridging — Implement protocol conversion, bus interfacing, or signal routing using the available logic fabric and 81 I/Os.
• Prototyping and Development — Suitable for evaluating mid-range FPGA implementations and validating hardware logic and timing before higher-volume designs.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Integration: Combines 15,408 logic elements with embedded memory and 81 I/Os to reduce the need for external glue logic and discrete memory in many designs.
• Compact Surface-Mount Package: The 144-LQFP exposed-pad package delivers a small footprint for board-level integration while supporting thermal management via the exposed pad.
• Predictable Power Envelope: A defined core voltage range (1.15 V–1.25 V) simplifies power-rail design and helps ensure consistent device behavior.
• Commercial Temperature Suitability: Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C operation to match typical commercial product requirements.
• RoHS Compliant: Meets common environmental compliance needs for commercial electronics manufacturing.
