EP4CGX30BF14I7N

The EP4CGX30BF14I7N is a Cyclone® IV GX field programmable gate array (FPGA) from Intel, supplied in a 169-LBGA package. It provides a mid-density programmable logic fabric with 29,440 logic elements and approximately 1.1 Mbits of on-chip RAM for embedded memory needs.

Targeted at industrial applications, the device combines a 72-pin I/O capability, a narrow core voltage range (1.16 V to 1.24 V), and an extended operating temperature range (−40 °C to 100 °C), making it suitable for designs that require configurable logic, deterministic I/O counts, and industrial-grade environmental tolerance.

Key Features

• Core FPGA Fabric  29,440 logic elements provide programmable resources for implementing custom digital logic and state machines.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 1.1 Mbits (1,105,920 bits) of on-chip RAM to support FIFOs, buffers, and small on-chip data storage.
• I/O and Package  72 user I/Os in a surface-mount 169-LBGA package (supplier device package: 169-FBGA, 14×14) for compact board-level integration.
• Power Supply  Narrow core supply range of 1.16 V to 1.24 V to match board power-rail planning for the device core.
• Industrial Grade & Temperature  Industrial-grade qualification with an operating temperature range from −40 °C to 100 °C for deployment in temperature-challenged environments.
• Regulatory Compliance  RoHS-compliant to support environmental and manufacturing requirements.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control Systems  Implement custom control logic, I/O aggregation, and sequencing functions while meeting industrial temperature and reliability demands.
• Embedded Processing and Interfaces  Provide glue logic, protocol bridging, and peripheral interfacing using on-chip logic and memory.
• Communications and Networking  Use the device’s programmable fabric and embedded RAM for packet buffering, framing, and custom data-path functions.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory:  29,440 logic elements paired with ~1.1 Mbits of embedded RAM enable a mix of compute and storage for mid-range designs.
• Defined I/O Count:  72 I/Os provide predictable interface capacity for system-level I/O planning and connector assignments.
• Industrial Temperature Range:  Rated −40 °C to 100 °C to support deployment in industrial and temperature-challenged applications.
• Compact, Surface-Mount Package:  169-LBGA (169-FBGA, 14×14) allows high-density board layouts without sacrificing I/O accessibility.
• Controlled Core Voltage:  A narrow 1.16 V to 1.24 V supply range simplifies power-rail design and core decoupling strategies.
• RoHS Compliant:  Conforms to RoHS requirements for environmentally conscious manufacturing and supply chains.
