Logic density and memory — what 22k LEs and 608 kbit RAM buy you
With 22,320 LEs, this part sits above the entry-level Cyclone IV E parts like the EP4CE6F17C8N (6,272 LEs). That delta matters if your design needs a soft-core CPU, a few DSP slices, or a moderate state machine alongside peripheral logic. The 608,256 total RAM bits are on-chip block RAM — sized for FIFOs, coefficient tables, or small line buffers, but not for full-frame video storage.
