What this Cyclone IV E FPGA brings to the board
The Intel EP4CE75F23C8L is a Cyclone IV E FPGA packing 75408 logic elements and 292 I/O in a 484-BGA package. That density puts it in the mid-range of the Cyclone IV E family — enough LEs for a modest video scaler, a multi-axis motor controller, or a PCIe bridge wrapper without needing the next larger die. The 2810880 bits of embedded RAM handle small frame buffers or FIFOs on-chip, saving external SRAM cost.
Lifecycle and sourcing posture
Listed as Active — no end-of-life notice, no last-time-buy clock ticking. That makes it a safe choice for a production BOM that still has a year or two of builds ahead. The EP4CE75F23C8L is sourced through independent distribution; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time against an RFQ. If you are looking at the EP4CE40F29C8 as a cost-down alternative, note it has 39600 LEs and 532 I/O in a larger 484-ball package — different I/O count and density tier, not a pin-compatible swap.
