What this Cyclone IV E FPGA brings to the board
The EP4CE22F17C6N is a Cyclone® IV E FPGA with 22320 logic elements and 153 I/O.
Lifecycle reality — end-of-life planning needed
The EP4CE22F17C6N carries an end-of-life (EOL) status. Intel has discontinued this density/speed grade. If you have an active BOM line with this part, you're looking at a last-time buy or a transition to a replacement. The Cyclone 10 LP family (e.g., 10CL025YU256C6G) offers a similar logic density (24624 LEs) and the same 256-FBGA footprint, with 150 I/O and matching RAM bits — a plausible migration path, though you'll need to re-run timing and verify the pinout. No direct second-source from another manufacturer exists; this is an Intel-only part. For volume purchases, we quote against an RFQ; availability and pricing are confirmed at quote time.
