Cyclone® II Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC 475 483840 33216 672-BGA

Introduction

Following the immensely successful first-generation Cyclone® device

family, Altera® Cyclone II FPGAs extend the low-cost FPGA density

range to 68,416 logic elements (LEs) and provide up to 622 usable I/O

pins and up to 1.1 Mbits of embedded memory. Cyclone II FPGAs are

manufactured on 300-mm wafers using TSMC's 90-nm low-k dielectric

process to ensure rapid availability and low cost. By minimizing silicon

area, Cyclone II devices can support complex digital systems on a single

chip at a cost that rivals that of ASICs. Unlike other FPGA vendors who

compromise power consumption and performance for low-cost, 

Altera’s latest generation of low-cost FPGAs—Cyclone II FPGAs, offer 60% 

higher performance and half the power consumption of competing 90-nm FPGAs. 

The low cost and optimized feature set of Cyclone II FPGAs make them ideal 

solutions for a wide array of automotive, consumer,communications, video processing, 

test and measurement, and other end-market solutions. Reference designs, 

system diagrams, and IP, found at www.altera.com, are available to help

 you rapidly develop complete end-market solutions using Cyclone II FPGAs.

Low-Cost Embedded Processing Solutions

Cyclone II devices support the Nios II embedded processor which allows

you to implement custom-fit embedded processing solutions. Cyclone II

devices can also expand the peripheral set, memory, I/O, or performance

of embedded processors. Single or multiple Nios II embedded processors

can be designed into a Cyclone II device to provide additional

co-processing power or even replace existing embedded processors in

your system. Using Cyclone II and Nios II together allow for low-cost,

high-performance embedded processing solutions, which allow you to

extend your product's life cycle and improve time to market over

standard product solutions.

Low-Cost DSP Solutions

Use Cyclone II FPGAs alone or as DSP co-processors to improve
