15408 logic elements in a 256-ball BGA
The EP4CE15F17A7N is an Intel Cyclone IV E FPGA with 15408 logic elements distributed across 963 LABs/CLBs. That is 165 user I/O brought out to a 256-ball FBGA package on a 17x17 mm footprint. On-chip block RAM totals 516096 bits — enough for moderate FIFO buffers, line stores, or coefficient tables without external memory for many control-path designs.
The I/O banks run from separate supplies (not listed here, but standard Cyclone IV E bank voltage is 2.5 V, 3.0 V, or 3.3 V depending on the interface).
256-ball FBGA (Fine-pitch Ball Grid Array) on a 17x17 mm body. The 1.0 mm ball pitch is layout-friendly — a 4-layer board with microvias is not strictly required, though a 6-layer stack-up gives cleaner power distribution for the 1.2 V core plane. Surface-mount only. The Tray packaging means the parts ship in anti-static trays, not tape-and-reel — factor this into the pick-and-place feeder setup if you are running high-volume assembly.
Sourced through authorized and independent distribution channels.
