Product details

What the EP4CE6F17C9L is and where it fits

The Altera (Intel) EP4CE6F17C9L is a Cyclone® IV E FPGA in a 256-FBGA package. It delivers 6272 logic elements and 179 user I/O, backed by 276480 bits of embedded RAM. This is the entry-density tier of the Cyclone IV E family — sized for cost-sensitive bridging, display control, motor-interface logic, and sensor aggregation where you need reconfigurable logic but not a high-gate-count fabric. The 0.97 V to 1.03 V core supply and 0°C to 85°C commercial temperature range target indoor, thermally managed environments like industrial control panels, test equipment, and communications line cards.

Key ratings and what they mean for the BOM

6272 logic elements (LEs) set the gate-count ceiling. For a design that needs a few hundred flip-flops and some combinatorial glue, this is comfortable; for a full soft-core processor with peripherals, you will run out of fabric quickly. The 179 I/O pins give you room to connect to a parallel bus, a dozen sensors, and a display interface without multiplexing — but watch the package: the 256-FBGA (17x17 mm) is a fine-pitch BGA that requires a multi-layer PCB and X-ray inspection for assembly. The 276480 total RAM bits are distributed across the M9K blocks; enough for small FIFOs or line buffers, not enough for a full frame store.

Frequently asked questions

What is the equivalent of EP4CE6F17C9L from other brands?

There is no direct pin-compatible second-source from another manufacturer for this Cyclone IV E FPGA. The closest functional alternative within the same family is the EP4CE6F17C8N, which shares the same logic-element count, I/O, and package but uses a different speed grade (C8 vs C9).

Is EP4CE6F17C9L RoHS compliant?

The EP4CE6F17C9L is listed as RoHS compliant per the standard Altera/Intel lead-free finishing for this series.

Does EP4CE6F17C9L have a built-in PLL?

Yes, Cyclone IV E devices include up to two PLLs per device. The EP4CE6F17C9L supports clock multiplication and phase shifting for common FPGA clocking needs.
