EP2C5T144I8N Altera IC CYCLONE II FPGA 5K TQFP144

Following the immensely successful first-generation Cyclone? Device family, Altera? EP2C5T144I8N Altera IC CYCLONE II FPGA 5K TQFP144.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. EP2C5T144I8N Altera IC CYCLONE II FPGA 5K TQFP144 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. EP2C5T144I8N Altera IC CYCLONE II FPGA 5K TQFP144.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..EP2C5T144I8N Altera IC CYCLONE II FPGA 5K TQFP144

 

Cyclone II devices support the Nios II embedded processor which allows you to implement custom-fit embedded processing solutions. EP2C5T144I8N Altera IC CYCLONE II FPGA 5K TQFP144.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.

Use Cyclone II FPGAs alone or as DSP co-processors to improve price-to-performance ratios for digital signal processing (DSP)applications. You can implement high-performance yet low-cost DSP

systems with the following Cyclone II features and design support:

■ Up to 150 18 × 18 multipliers

■ Up to 1.1 Mbit of on-chip embedded memory

■ High-speed interfaces to external memory.EP2C5T144I8N Altera IC CYCLONE II FPGA 5K TQFP144

 

Cyclone II devices include a powerful FPGA feature set optimized for low-cost applications including a wide range of density, memory,embedded multiplier, and packaging options. Cyclone II devices support a wide range of common external memory interfaces and I/O protocols required in low-cost applications. Parameterizable IP cores from Altera and partners make using Cyclone II interfaces and protocols fast and easy.EP2C5T144I8N Altera IC CYCLONE II FPGA 5K TQFP144.The Cyclone II family offers devices with the Fast-On feature, which offers a faster power-on-reset (POR) time. Devices that support the Fast-On feature are designated with an “A” in the device ordering code. For example, EP2C5A, EP2C8A, EP2C15A, and EP2C20A. The EP2C5A is only available in the automotive speed grade. The EP2C8A and EP2C20A are only available in the industrial speed grade. EP2C5T144I8N Altera IC CYCLONE II FPGA 5K TQFP144.The EP2C15A is only available with the Fast-On feature and is available in both commercial and industrial grades. The Cyclone II “A” devices are identical in feature set and functionality to the non-A devices except for support of the faster

POR time.EP2C5T144I8N Altera IC CYCLONE II FPGA 5K TQFP144

 

Cyclone? II devices contain a two-dimensional row- and column-based architecture to implement custom logic. Column and row interconnects of varying speeds provide signal interconnects between logic array blocks (LABs), embedded memory blocks, and embedded multipliers. EP2C5T144I8N Altera IC CYCLONE II FPGA 5K TQFP144.The logic array consists of LABs, with 16 logic elements (LEs) in each LAB. An LE is a small unit of logic providing efficient implementation of

user logic functions. LABs are grouped into rows and columns across the device. Cyclone II devices range in density from 4,608 to 68,416 LEs.Cyclone II devices provide a global clock network and up to four phase-locked loops (PLLs). EP2C5T144I8N Altera IC CYCLONE II FPGA 5K TQFP144

The global clock network consists of up to 16 global clock lines that drive throughout the entire device. EP2C5T144I8N Altera IC CYCLONE II FPGA 5K TQFP144.The global clock network can provide clocks for all resources within the device, such as input/output elements (IOEs), LEs, embedded multipliers, and embedded memory blocks. The global clock lines can also be used for other high fan-out signals. Cyclone II PLLs provide general-purpose clocking with clock synthesis and phase shifting as well as external outputs for high-speed differential I/O support.
