Power and Cost-Optimized FPGAs

Altera FPGA families are architected to provide balanced performance, power efficiency, small form factor, simplicity, and cost for users' FPGA designs. Selected MAX® and Cyclone® families combined with the upcoming Agilex™ 3 FPGA family deliver exceptional value for various applications. If a customer's design does not require the biggest, fastest, or most feature-rich FPGAs available, these are the recommended products to choose from if they still need the advantages of FPGAs: flexibility with performance.

Cost Optimization: These Altera devices are designed to provide the best performance per dollar, ideal for cost-sensitive applications.

Power Efficiency: Altera FPGAs are optimized for low total power consumption, helping to create energy-efficient designs.

High Integration: With integrated features and high I/O density, Altera FPGAs reduce the need for additional components, simplifying the design process and reducing costs. The MAX series even includes data converters and offers a single-chip solution for enhanced integration. The Cyclone and Agilex 3 families offer options including embedded ARM processors and high-speed transceivers, providing more flexibility and computing power within the same FPGA.

Advanced No-Cost Tools: Altera Quartus Prime design software offers a comprehensive design environment with advanced features typically found in expensive tools, all at no cost for these devices.
