EP4CE10F17C9L - 10,320-Cell Cyclone IV E FPGA | Altera
部品番号: EP4CE10F17C9L ✓ 生産中EP4CE10F17C9L 概要
A field-programmable gate array is a semiconductor whose digital functions are defined after fabrication through a configuration bitstream. Within the device hierarchy, an FPGA belongs to the broader category of programmable logic devices and semiconductor ICs. Instead of relying on fixed application-specific circuitry, engineers can configure logic blocks, routing networks, memory blocks, and I/O standards to implement control functions, data paths, or interface bridging on one integrated circuit.
The EP4CE10 device contains 10,320 logic cells organized into 47 logic blocks, providing 179 user I/O in the selected package. Its 1.2 V core supply and 60 nm process generation place it in the Cyclone IV E family. The F17 package designation identifies the package used by this ordering code, while the 256-ball surface-mount construction supports dense PCB routing and automated assembly. These characteristics make the device useful when programmable logic provides faster design iteration than application-specific logic.
The combination of 47 logic blocks and 179 I/O supports parallel control logic, protocol interfaces, data acquisition, and general-purpose embedded logic. Because an FPGA is configured rather than permanently programmed, the same PCB can be adapted when interface requirements or firmware behavior change. Designers should still validate timing, voltage levels, configuration startup, and I/O standards against the manufacturer datasheet before releasing production hardware.
Typical uses include industrial automation, industrial networking, video and image processing, communication infrastructure, instrumentation, and embedded control. The high I/O count is particularly useful for bus aggregation, status and control signaling, sensor interfaces, and designs that need several independently configurable digital channels. The 256-LBGA package also demands careful PCB layout, thermal analysis, and assembly process control.
The primary design consideration is power and signal integrity. Keep high-current and sensitive-routing requirements separate, use the recommended decoupling arrangement, and confirm the exact I/O voltage domains, configuration method, and unused-ball constraints in the pin-description and power-supply sections of the Cyclone IV E device datasheet. Use the manufacturer pin-assignment guidance when assigning every ball.
This product page combines device identity, package information, lifecycle and compliance fields, sourcing guidance, drop-in ordering alternatives, and engineering-focused selection notes. It is designed to help designers identify whether the EP4CE10F17C9L matches the required logic density, I/O capacity, package, and system-level implementation constraints.

主な用途
EP4CE10F17C9L の用途: 6 件s: Industrial Automation Controllers, Industrial Networking Interfaces, Video and Image Processing, Data Acquisition and Instrumentation, Communication Infrastructure, Embedded Control and Security.
Industrial Automation Controllers
The EP4CE10F17C9L is suitable for programmable industrial control when a design requires deterministic parallel logic and multiple digital interfaces. Its 10,320 logic cells and 47 logic blocks can implement sequencing, timing, state machines, and machine-control logic, while 179 I/O provides connections to sensors, actuators, interlocks, and status indicators. Operating from a 1.2 V core in the 256-LBGA package, it supports compact control assemblies without the fixed function of an application-specific controller. The principal engineering trade-off is PCB complexity: dense BGA escape routing, decoupling, thermal design, and assembly inspection must be planned carefully.
おすすめ
Industrial Networking Interfaces
The EP4CE10F17C9L can implement protocol conversion, bus arbitration, and data framing for industrial networking equipment. Its 47 logic blocks and 10,320 logic cells provide enough configurable resources for parallel datapaths and state-machine-based control, while 179 I/O supports connections among transceivers, processors, and status logic. The 1.2 V FPGA core suits modern mixed-signal board architectures, provided the design includes appropriate level-shifting or transceiver interfaces. A key trade-off is timing closure: clock-domain relationships, I/O standards, and skew margins should be verified against the Cyclone IV E device datasheet before production release.
おすすめ
Video and Image Processing
The EP4CE10F17C9L is applicable to parallel video timing, pixel processing, test-pattern generation, and image pipeline control. Its 179 I/O provide substantial parallel connectivity for pixel data, horizontal and vertical synchronization, and control signals, while the programmable architecture allows changing frame timing or data transformations through configuration updates. The 256-LBGA package also offers many physical connections for high-speed routing. Designers should evaluate external memory interfaces, PLL requirements, video timing constraints, and signal-integrity margins, because the device’s published core-resource figures do not by themselves guarantee a particular pixel rate.
おすすめ
Data Acquisition and Instrumentation
The EP4CE10F17C9L fits instrument-control and data-acquisition designs requiring coordinated sampling control, trigger logic, buffering, and communication formatting. Its 10,320 logic cells can implement acquisition state machines and data paths, while 179 I/O can connect converters, counters, memory interfaces, and control peripherals. The 1.2 V core supply supports low-voltage digital implementation, although analog input conditioning remains outside the FPGA. The main design trade-off is balancing fixed I/O allocation with timing and routing: use the pin-description tables to reserve power and configuration balls, and confirm every acquisition signal’s voltage domain before layout.
おすすめ
Communication Infrastructure
The EP4CE10F17C9L can serve as programmable line-card logic for packet classification, channel control, monitoring, and custom backplane interfaces. The 47 logic blocks and 179 I/O make it useful where several parallel buses and control signals must be coordinated, while SRAM configuration allows firmware updates and field-adaptable behavior. The 256-LBGA package supports dense routing but demands disciplined layer planning, return-path continuity, and simulation of critical interfaces. Designers should distinguish interface logic capacity from the throughput of external transceivers, and should validate protocol timing, clock domains, and power sequencing against the actual system architecture.
おすすめ
Embedded Control and Security
The EP4CE10F17C9L is suitable for embedded control subsystems that combine sequencing, cryptographic control logic, watchdog functions, and external bus arbitration. Its programmable architecture permits hardware behavior to be updated through a new configuration bitstream, while 10,320 logic cells and 179 I/O provide implementation headroom for moderate control complexity. The 1.2 V core and 256-LBGA package are suitable for compact high-density boards, but secure implementations require controlled configuration access, reliable startup behavior, and careful separation of sensitive interfaces. Confirm supported configuration schemes and boot requirements in the manufacturer documentation before using the FPGA as a security boundary.

設計ノート
Use the manufacturer F17 package drawing and land pattern for the PCB footprint. A 256-ball device requires escape routing from the inner signal balls, careful via placement, and uninterrupted return paths beneath high-speed nets. Place the core and I/O decoupling capacitors at the locations shown in the recommended layout and keep sensitive configuration and clock routes away from noisy switching nodes.
Confirm the 1.2 V core operating range, tolerance, sequencing, and current limits in the Cyclone IV E device datasheet before selecting regulators or planning power-up behavior. The FPGA contains banks with different I/O requirements, so each supply domain needs appropriate decoupling and sufficient startup margin. Power sequencing should be checked together with configuration startup and any external clock requirements.
Assign pins from the exact EP4CE10F17C9L pin-description table rather than from a generic EP4CE10 diagram. Dedicated configuration pins, clock inputs, power balls, and ground balls may not be interchangeable with user I/O even when the package has the same ball count. Preserve the manufacturer’s keep-out and thermal-pad requirements, and verify the final bill of materials against the exact ordering suffix.
Do not treat every EP4CE10F17 ordering code as an automatic substitute. The C8, C8N, C8L, C9, and C9LN suffixes can represent differences in ordering conditions or device grade even when core cell counts, package dimensions, and terminal counts match. Before PCB substitution, compare temperature range, lifecycle, qualification, configuration, clocking, and electrical limits for the exact suffix.
コンプライアンス情報
The official ordering page provides trade-compliance and material information, but no individual compliance conclusion is stated here. Confirm RoHS, REACH, lead-free, halogen-free, and conflict-mineral status for the exact ordering code.
