Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are electronic components which can be programmed to custom functioning logic. When compared to traditional integrated circuits, FPGAs enable quicker development of applications with some level of reconfigurability. This reconfigurability is attractive for short term deviations from a standard IC, or in cases where rapidly changing design parameters require constant design modifications. EP4CE115F29I7N is an FPGA component developed by Altera, a leader in programmable Logic Devices or PLDs.

The EP4CE115F29I7N component is a member of Altera’s low-cost Cyclone-IV FPGA family. This particular component is the 20 pin variant of the Cyclone-IV family, which includes the added benefits of having embedded advanced memory controllers, improved I/Os, low power consumption and embedded arithmetic logic functions. This component is ideal for low-cost applications that require large amounts of I/Os, reducing the number of components required and reducing cost of the entire circuit.

As with all FPGAs, the EP4CE115F29I7N component is programmable, allowing for custom logic to be used for applications. With this component, the user is able to use the Quartus II software by Altera to design and implement custom logic designs. The Quartus II software is a graphical based design environment, allowing for quick and easy design, as well as debugging of the logic. This feature is extremely useful for the debugging phase for any logic design, because it provides a visual representation of the logic which is running on the FPGA, enabling rapid identification and debugging of any bugs present. In most cases this saves a significant amount of time when compared to debugging on a standard integrated circuit.

The EP4CE115F29I7N component has an enhanced architecture when compared to other FPGAs in Altera’s Cyclone FPGA series. This component boasts an improved architecture design which includes up to 8096 logic elements, 8288 bits of RAM, and 1.25K digital signal processing blocks which can be used for advanced signal processing applications. This enhanced architecture simplifies the implementation of complex designs, reducing the time it takes to produce applications based on the FPGA.

The EP4CE115F29I7N component offers many features that allow it to excel in embedded applications, making it one of the best in its class. First, this component comes equipped with an embedded Triple Enhanced Configuration device, allowing for quicker input to output turnaround times. This improved input to output turnaround time helps cut the optimization cycle time for the entire system. Additionally, dual independent Phase Locked Loops (PLLs) enable synchronization of multiple heterogeneous clock buckets. In short, this feature lets users match the frequency of two or more master clocks, allowing for better control over the entire system.

The EP4CE115F29I7N component is also equipped with a flashing circuit to automatically clear the configuration during system start-up. This feature makes it easier to debug the hardware code in the FPGA because the logic can be easily re-configured without having to go through the fully functional debugging sequence. Moreover, the component has a fast scan design capability which allows users to quickly insert and remove test vectors while running the system in a fully functional state. This feature helps reduce overall debugging time by allowing test vectors to be used directly on the FPGA, instead of having to first create them on the microprocessor.

Finally, the EP4CE115F29I7N component also comes with a real-time electrical stress monitoring capability. This decreases the risk of component failure, as it allows the FPGA to actively monitor and adjust the electrical stress on the system, thus reducing the probability of component failure. This feature makes the component more suitable for applications that require the highest level of reliability.

Altogether, the EP4CE115F29I7N component offers a range of features and improvements over other FPGA’s in its class. Its enhanced architecture, embedded triple enhanced configuration device, dual independent Phase Locked Loops, and real-time electrical stress monitoring capabilities make it an excellent choice for embedded applications that require reliable, robust performance at an economical price.
