Altera Corporation（纳斯达克股票代码：ALTR）宣布其Cyclone®VSoCs和Extria®VSoC的工程样品可用性的生产可用性。随着加强的处理器峰时钟频率 - Cyclone V SoC为925 MHz，用于商业级和700 MHz，用于汽车级，Arria V SoC为工业级1.05 GHz - 这些设备是FPGA行业最高的SOC。Altera SoC提供嵌入式开发人员最强大的架构，最高的生产力开发工具以及广泛的密度范围。
With production shipments beginning, customers will start accruing the SoC’s system benefits as they begin shipping to their own customers, said Chris Balough, senior director of SoC product marketing at Altera. Altera’s combination of leadership in SoC architecture, density, performance, and development tools, along with a processor roadmap to 14 nm, is a compelling value proposition for embedded system developers.
Altera offers the industry’s broadest range of densities with its 28 nm SoCs, ranging from 25K logic elements (LE) up to 460K LE. This density range allows Altera SoCs to be integrated into a variety of embedded systems, ranging from cost-sensitive industrial automation and automotive driver assist systems to applications that require higher-performance, including remote radio units, 10G/40G line cards and broadcast studio equipment. Increasing the core frequency of the dual-core ARM® Cortex™-A9 MPCore™ processor enables the devices to meet performance requirements of an even greater number of embedded systems.
Altera SoCs combine a dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 processor system with FPGA logic on a single device. Altera SoCs include several distinctive features (32-bit error correction code, a high-bandwidth memory controller with built in memory protection, flexible boot capability and integrated PCI Express® across all SoCs) that enable developers in the wireless communications, industrial, video surveillance, automotive and medical equipment markets to create custom SoC variants optimized for system power, board space, performance and cost requirements.
Altera SoCs are supported by a broad ecosystem of operating systems, design tools, development kits, and software-development solutions from Altera, ARM and third parties that ease the development and use of the devices. The Altera SoC Embedded Design Suite (EDS) allows embedded developers to jump-start their firmware and application software development by offering a comprehensive tool suite that includes development tools, utility programs, run-time software and application examples. At the heart of the SoC EDS is the exclusive ARM Development Studio™ 5 (DS-5™) Altera Edition Toolkit. This toolkit combines the ARM DS-5 advanced multi-core debugging capabilities with FPGA-adaptivity for unprecedented full-chip debugging visibility and control.
可用性
Cyclone V SoC今天在85K Le和110k Le密度的生产中运送，并提供所有三个收发器选项变体（SE，SX和St）。Cyclone V SoC提供单一或双处理器核心选项，可在C6速度等级中以高达925 MHz的核心时钟频率运行。还提供了一种带有700 MHz核心时钟频率的汽车级旋风V SOC。这些器件非常适合高温环境，例如汽车驾驶员辅助，信息娱乐和电子车辆。
最大的Arria V SoC与460k Le目前是运输工程样品。Arria V SoC具有双核处理器，其在I3速度等级中以高达1.05 GHz的核心时钟频率运行。有关Altera SoC的更多信息，请访问www.altera.com/soc。
