Cyclone IV E FPGA — 15408 LEs, 165 I/O in 256-FBGA
The Intel EP4CE15F17C8L is a Cyclone® IV E FPGA with 15408 logic elements in a 256-FBGA (17x17 mm) package. It has 165 user I/O and 516096 total RAM bits.
Logic fabric and memory — what the numbers mean for your design
The 15408 logic elements (963 LABs/CLBs) give you roughly 15K usable LUTs for combinatorial and registered logic. The Cyclone IV GX family carries 14400 LEs — the E variant trades the transceivers for more I/O (165 vs 72) and a different package footprint. The 516096 total RAM bits are organized as M9K blocks — enough for a moderate FIFO, a small frame buffer, or coefficient storage without external SRAM.
Active lifecycle — no last-time-buy pressure
The EP4CE15F17C8L is listed as Active in production. There is no announced end-of-life, no last-time-buy window to manage. This part is suitable for new designs and production builds without obsolescence risk.
