EP4CE15F23C8N in Intel Cyclone & MAX 10 Family
The EP4CE15F23C8N belongs to the Intel (formerly Altera) Cyclone IV E series, a market-leading family of low-power, cost-optimized FPGAs designed for high-volume applications. Built on a 60nm process, these devices balance performance with energy efficiency, featuring high-density logic gates and integrated hardware multipliers. Engineers select this family for projects requiring flexible I/O standards and significant parallel processing capabilities without the thermal or cost overhead of high-end Stratix or Arria alternatives.
Variants in This Sub-Family
Variants within the Cyclone IV E sub-family primarily diverge based on Logic Element density, ranging from 6K to 115K LEs, and available User I/O pins. Thermal grades include commercial, industrial, and extended temperatures. Packaging options such as FineLine BGA and EQFP dictate the available board-level interconnects, while speed grades (designated by suffixes like 7, 8, or 9) determine the maximum operating frequency and timing margins for high-speed logic designs.
