Overview

The EP4CE30F23C8 is a mid-range Cyclone IV E FPGA featuring 28,848 logic elements and 608,256 bits of embedded memory. It is optimized for low-power, cost-sensitive applications requiring a significant number of user I/Os (328) in a 484-FBGA package.

Why Choose This Part

This device offers a balanced ratio of logic density to I/O count, making it ideal for systems with high pin-count requirements but moderate logic needs. Its 1.2V core architecture minimizes static power consumption while supporting a wide range of I/O standards up to 3.465V.

Applications

Industrial Protocol Conversion
Managing high-speed bridging between legacy serial interfaces and modern industrial Ethernet standards using custom IP cores.
Custom Video Processing
Implementing image enhancement or format conversion algorithms for small-scale display drivers and camera interfaces.
Motor Control Interfacing
Handling multi-axis pulse-width modulation (PWM) and encoder feedback processing for high-precision motion control.
