Product details

What this FPGA brings to the board

That density puts it in the medium-range tier of the family — enough for a multi-interface bridge, a modest DSP pipeline, or a glue-logic consolidation that would otherwise eat a dozen CPLDs. The 1161216 bits of embedded RAM handle small FIFOs or line buffers without chewing up logic cells. The commercial-grade sibling (EP4CE40F29C8) tops out at 85°C — not a safe choice if the board sits near a motor drive or a hot backplane.

Core supply — the 1.0 V rail is tight

The core supply range is 0.97 V to 1.03 V.

I/O count and package — routing the 532 pins

532 I/O in a 780-ball FBGA (29×29 mm).

Frequently asked questions

Is EP4CE40F29I8L obsolete?

No — the EP4CE40F29I8L is Active in production. Intel has not issued an EOL notice for the Cyclone IV E family.

What is the difference between EP4CE40F29I8L and EP4CE40F29C8?

The difference is the temperature grade. The EP4CE40F29I8L is rated for -40°C to 100°C (industrial), while the EP4CE40F29C8 is rated for 0°C to 85°C (commercial). All other specs — logic elements, I/O count, RAM bits, package — are identical.

Is EP4CE40F29I8L compatible with Cyclone IV GX?

No — Cyclone IV GX devices include transceivers and use a different package and pinout. The EP4CE40F29I8L is a Cyclone IV E (no transceivers) and is not pin-compatible with GX variants.

What is the replacement for EP4CE40F29I8L?

There is no direct pin-compatible replacement from Intel. For a redesign, the Cyclone 10 LP (10CL040YU484I7G) offers the same 39600 logic elements and 1161216 RAM bits in a different package (484-ball FBGA vs 780-ball FBGA).
