It has 276480 bits of RAM.
I/O and package fit
With 91 I/O from a 144-pin EQFP, the device can interface parallel LCD, serial peripherals, and a memory bus.
For dual-sourcing, the EP4CE6F17C8N is a pin-compatible sibling in the same Cyclone IV E family with the same logic density and RAM — the main difference is a 256-pin FBGA package that offers 179 I/O instead of 91. If your board is already laid out for the 144-EQFP footprint, the EP4CE6E22C6 is the only fit; the FBGA variant requires a different PCB.
What the temperature grade means for your BOM
The 0°C to 85°C junction-temperature range is commercial grade.
