EP4CE15F17C8L

The EP4CE15F17C8L is a Cyclone® IV field-programmable gate array (FPGA) from Intel. It integrates 15,408 logic elements, approximately 0.52 Mbits of embedded RAM, and 165 general-purpose I/O pins in a compact 256‑LBGA package.

Designed for commercial embedded systems, the device delivers configurable logic, on-chip memory, and a moderate I/O count suitable for a wide range of programmable-logic tasks while operating within a commercial temperature range and RoHS compliance.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 15,408 logic elements provide programmable resources for custom digital functions and control logic.
• On‑Chip Memory — Approximately 0.52 Mbits of embedded RAM for buffering, temporary storage, and state retention in logic designs.
• I/O Count — 165 I/O pins support multiple peripheral interfaces and I/O-rich designs.
• Power Supply — Core voltage range of 0.97 V to 1.03 V for predictable power provisioning and supply design.
• Package & Mounting — 256‑LBGA (supplier package: 256‑FBGA, 17×17) in a surface-mount form factor for space-efficient PCB integration.
• Operating Conditions — Commercial temperature grade with an operating range of 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Compliance — RoHS‑compliant, meeting common environmental compliance requirements for commercial products.
• Documentation — Supported by Cyclone IV device documentation and datasheet materials covering operating conditions, DC characteristics, switching specifications, and implementation guidance.

Typical Applications

• Commercial Embedded Systems — Implement custom control logic and peripheral interfaces for consumer and business products within a commercial temperature range.
• I/O Expansion & Interface Bridging — Provide programmable I/O aggregation and protocol adaptation using the device’s 165 I/Os and on-chip logic.
• Prototyping & Development — Rapidly validate digital logic and system-level functions where reprogrammability and moderate logic density are required.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory: 15,408 logic elements paired with approximately 0.52 Mbits of RAM enable mid-density designs with local buffering and state storage.
• Generous I/O Count: 165 I/Os simplify external device interfacing and reduce the need for additional I/O expander components.
• Compact, Surface‑Mount Package: 256‑LBGA (256‑FBGA, 17×17) provides a small footprint for dense PCB layouts.
• Commercial Temperature Grade: Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C, suitable for standard commercial electronics applications.
• Predictable Power Envelope: Tight core voltage window (0.970 V–1.03 V) supports consistent power-supply design and thermal planning.
• RoHS Compliant: Meets environmental compliance expectations for commercial products.
