Product details

It carries 2396160 bits of embedded block RAM, enough for moderate FIFO buffers or frame storage without external SRAM. The core supply runs at 0.97 V to 1.03 V — a tight window that demands a clean, low-noise regulator.

Logic density and memory — what fits

With 55856 logic elements and 3491 LABs/CLBs, this FPGA sits in the mid-range of the Cyclone IV E family. The 2396160 bits of RAM support moderate buffering and pipelining. Compared to the EP4CE40F29C8 (39600 LEs, 1161216 bits RAM), this part offers roughly 40% more logic and double the block RAM — a meaningful step up for designs that need extra combinatorial depth or larger FIFOs without migrating to a larger package.

I/O and package — board-level fit

The 324 I/Os are distributed across a 484-ball BGA (23×23 mm). The 0.97–1.03 V core rail is separate from the I/O banks.

For dual-sourcing or supply resilience, the Cyclone 10 LP 10CL055YF484C6G offers the same logic density (55856 LEs), same RAM (2396160 bits), same I/O count (321), and the same 484-BGA footprint, though its core voltage is 1.2 V — a regulator change on the board.

Frequently asked questions

Is EP4CE55F23C9LN RoHS compliant?

Yes, the 'LN' suffix in the order code indicates RoHS-compliant and lead-free finish. The part is fully RoHS compliant.

What is the difference between EP4CE55F23C9LN and EP4CE55F23C8LN?

The difference is the speed grade: the 'C9' variant (this part) is the standard-speed grade, while the 'C8' variant is a faster speed grade. Both share the same logic density, I/O count, and package. The C8 part will achieve higher fMAX in timing-critical paths, but the C9 part is sufficient for many designs and typically carries a lower cost.

Where can I buy EP4CE55F23C9LN?

This part is sourced and quoted to order through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ for current availability and pricing — stock levels and lead times are confirmed at quote time.

What is the closest functional second-source for EP4CE55F23C9LN?

The closest functional alternative is the Intel Cyclone 10 LP 10CL055YF484C6G, which offers the same logic density (55856 LEs), same block RAM (2396160 bits), and a similar 484-BGA footprint with 321 I/O. The core voltage differs (1.2 V vs 1.0 V), so a regulator change is needed on the board.
