EP4CE55F23C8 in Intel Cyclone & MAX 10 Family
The EP4CE55F23C8 belongs to the Intel (formerly Altera) Cyclone IV E series, a market-leading family of FPGAs optimized for low power and low cost. Manufactured on a 60nm process, this sub-family balances logic density with power efficiency. It is primarily utilized by embedded engineers to manage complex digital signal processing, high-speed I/O expansion, and system-level integration in designs where thermal management and board space are critical constraints.
Variants in This Sub-Family
Variants within the EP4CE55 series primarily differ by speed grade and temperature rating. The 'C8' suffix denotes a standard commercial speed grade, whereas 'I7' or 'A7' variants offer faster performance or extended temperature ranges for industrial and automotive environments. Packaging options like the F23 provide high I/O counts, while smaller package variants may trade off pin availability for reduced physical footprint.
