EP4CE6F17I7N Cyclone IV E Field-Programmable Gate Array
The EP4CE6F17I7N is a cost-optimized, low-power field-programmable gate array from Intel (formerly Altera) Cyclone IV E family, fabricated on advanced 60nm process technology to deliver an optimal balance of performance, power efficiency, and affordability for high-volume applications. This device integrates 6,272 logic elements organized in 392 logic array blocks (LABs), providing substantial programmable logic capacity for implementing complex digital systems, soft processors, and custom interface protocols. The FPGA features 270 Kbits of embedded M9K memory blocks configurable as single-port, simple dual-port, or true dual-port RAM, FIFO buffers, or ROM, alongside 15 dedicated 18×18 embedded multipliers optimized for high-performance digital signal processing applications. Operating from a 1.2V core voltage with I/O support ranging from 1.2V to 3.3V, the device delivers maximum clock frequencies up to 200MHz while maintaining industrial-grade reliability across a -40°C to +100°C temperature range.
EP4CE6F17I7N Cyclone IV FPGA Performance and Configuration Support
Built upon the proven Cyclone series architecture, the EP4CE6F17I7N leverages 4-input look-up table (LUT) based logic elements combined with programmable registers to implement combinational and sequential logic functions with exceptional flexibility. The device incorporates two high-performance phase-locked loops (PLLs) capable of frequency synthesis, phase shifting, and clock multiplication/division, enabling sophisticated clock management for multi-clock domain designs. The embedded multiplier blocks can operate at frequencies exceeding 300MHz, supporting demanding DSP algorithms including finite impulse response (FIR) filters, fast Fourier transforms (FFT), and numerically controlled oscillators (NCO). With 10 global clock networks available, designers can efficiently distribute low-skew clock signals throughout the device, while the comprehensive clock control blocks facilitate dynamic clock gating for power reduction in synchronous designs.
The EP4CE6F17I7N utilizes SRAM-based configuration cells, supporting multiple programming schemes including Active Serial (AS), Passive Serial (PS), Fast Passive Parallel (FPP), and JTAG boundary-scan for maximum flexibility in system deployment. Configuration data can be stored in low-cost EPCS serial flash devices or commodity parallel flash memories, with support for remote system upgrades enabling field-programmable capability.
