Active

Overview

The EP4CE75F23C8 is a mid-range Cyclone IV E FPGA designed for power-sensitive applications requiring significant logic density and high I/O counts. Built on a low-power 60nm process, it offers 75,408 logic elements and supports a wide variety of differential and single-ended I/O standards within a 484-pin FineLine BGA package.

Why Choose This Part

This FPGA balances logic density with power efficiency, featuring a shutdown current as low as 100uA for power-critical designs. It supports diverse I/O standards including LVDS, SSTL, and HSTL, and can reach clock speeds up to 402 MHz to handle demanding digital signal processing tasks.

Applications

Industrial Ethernet Switch
Implementing custom MAC layers and hardware-accelerated packet processing for industrial automation protocols.
Video Image Processing
Handling real-time image scaling, color space conversion, and frame buffering using internal M9K memory blocks.
Motor Control Systems
Generating high-resolution PWM signals and processing encoder feedback for multi-axis motion control.
Protocol Bridging
Interfacing legacy parallel buses with modern high-speed serial standards like PCIe and LVDS.
