At 15408 LEs, this part sits above the Cyclone IV E entry point (EP4CE6F17C8N with 6272 LEs) and below the next density step. The 963 LABs/CLBs give fine-grained placement control for timing-critical paths.
Intel lists this part as Active. The Cyclone IV E family has been in volume production for years; supply is stable through distribution and independent channels.
Cyclone IV GX adds integrated transceivers for serial protocols (PCIe, Gigabit Ethernet) but reduces I/O count. The EP4CGX15BF14C8N, for example, has only 72 I/O versus the 165 I/O on this Cyclone IV E part. Choose GX if you need high-speed serial; choose E for maximum parallel I/O and lower cost.
This part is available through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ for current pricing and delivery — availability is confirmed at quote time. No minimum order quantity restrictions.
The Cyclone IV E I/O banks support 3.3V VCCIO, so yes — you can interface directly with 3.3V logic. Just set the bank voltage to 3.3V and configure the I/O standard in the Quartus project.
Within the Cyclone IV E family, the EP4CE10U14I7N (10320 LEs, -40°C to 100°C) and EP4CE6F17C8N (6272 LEs, 0°C to 85°C) are density alternatives in different packages. For a transceiver-equipped variant, the EP4CGX15BF14C8N (14400 LEs, 72 I/O) is a functional alternative if you need serial I/O.
