Cyclone II Device Family Data Sheet

Following the immensely successful first-generation Cyclone device family, Altera Cyclone II FPGAs EP2C5 EP2C8 EP2C15 EP2C20 EP2C35 EP2C50 EP2C70 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, Alteras latest generation of low-cost FPGAsCyclone 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.
