EP4CE40F23C8N

The EP4CE40F23C8N is an Intel Cyclone IV FPGA provided in a 484-ball FBGA (23×23) package for surface-mount assembly. It delivers 39,600 logic elements, approximately 1.16 Mbits of on-chip RAM, and 328 general-purpose I/Os in a commercial-grade device.

This FPGA is intended for commercial embedded systems and programmable-logic designs that require substantial logic capacity, on-chip memory, and a high I/O count while operating within a 0 °C to 85 °C range and a supply voltage window of 1.15 V to 1.25 V.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 39,600 logic elements to implement complex combinational and sequential logic functions.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 1.16 Mbits of on-chip RAM to support data buffering, FIFOs, and small embedded storage.
• I/O and Interfaces — 328 I/O pins to connect a wide range of external peripherals and interfaces in dense designs.
• Power and Operating Conditions — Designed for a core voltage supply range of 1.15 V to 1.25 V and an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C (commercial grade).
• Package and Mounting — 484-FBGA (23×23) package in a surface-mount form factor for compact board-level integration.
• Standards and Documentation — Device is RoHS compliant; comprehensive device-level documentation such as the Cyclone IV Device Handbook covers operating conditions, DC characteristics, I/O specifications, and reliability guidance.

Typical Applications

• Commercial Embedded Systems — Implement custom control logic, protocol bridges, and glue logic where a high I/O count and significant logic resources are required.
• Prototyping and Development — Evaluate and iterate digital designs that need reprogrammable logic and on-chip RAM for temporary storage and test functionality.
• Communication Interfaces — Aggregate and manage multiple I/O signals and implement interface logic within a single FPGA package.

Unique Advantages

• High logic density: 39,600 logic elements enable implementation of sizeable digital functions without external gate arrays.
• On-chip memory availability: Approximately 1.16 Mbits of embedded RAM reduces dependency on external memory for buffering and intermediate storage.
• Large I/O complement: 328 I/Os provide flexibility to connect numerous peripherals and interfaces directly to the FPGA.
• Compact surface-mount package: 484-FBGA (23×23) supports high-density PCB designs while keeping the solution footprint compact.
• Commercial temperature rating: Specified for 0 °C to 85 °C operation to match typical commercial electronics deployment.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance supports environmental and manufacturing requirements.
