Active66 in stock

Overview

The EP4CE30F23C8N is a member of Altera (Intel) Cyclone IV E series, offering a balance of low power consumption and high logic density. This FPGA features 28,848 logic elements and 608,256 total RAM bits, making it suitable for cost-sensitive applications requiring significant I/O flexibility. It operates on a core voltage of 1.15V to 1.25V and is housed in a 484-pin FineLine BGA package.

Why Choose This Part

This device provides a versatile I/O architecture supporting various differential signaling standards and high-speed interfaces like PCI Express. Its low-power architecture includes standby and sleep modes to minimize thermal dissipation in compact enclosures while maintaining high logic capacity for its price point.

Applications

Industrial Protocol Conversion
Bridging multiple industrial communication standards like Ethernet, CAN, and proprietary serial protocols using its 328 available I/O pins.
Video Signal Processing
Handling video stream manipulation and display interfacing through support for LVDS, mini-LVDS, and RSDS standards.
Embedded System Acceleration
Offloading computationally intensive tasks from a primary MCU or hosting a Nios II soft-core processor for integrated control.
