Benefits
Attain Breakthrough Bandwidth with Power-Efficient Transceivers
- Integrated 28.05- and 14.1-Gbps transceivers, with up to 50 percent lower transceiver power compared to previous-generation devices
- Up to 6 x72 DDR3 memory interfaces at 933 MHz
- 2.5 TMACS of signal processing performance
- PCI Express* Gen3, Gen2, and Gen1 hard intellectual property (IP) support
Achieve Higher Integration on a Single Chip and Reduce Your Costs
- Double the density without a cost and power penalty, through Embedded HardCopy Blocks, which deliver up to 14.3M ASIC gates or up to 1.19M logic elements. The blocks harden standard or logic-intensive functions including interface protocols like PCI Express* Gen3, Gen2, and Gen1, and application-specific functions like 40G/100G/400G
- Partial reconfiguration, which enables you to reduce the size of FPGAs, saving board space, cost, and power
- Fractional phase-locked loops (fPLLs), which provide increased clocking flexibility and replace on-board voltage-controlled crystal oscillators (VCXOs)
- Integrated electronic dispersion compensation (EDC) capability in transceivers, which eliminates the need for external PHY to interface to optical modules
Get Ultimate Flexibility for Your Designs
- User-friendly fine-grain partial reconfiguration, which allows you to change core functionality on the fly
- Dynamically reconfigurable transceivers, which let you easily support multiple protocols, data rates, and physical media attachment (PMA) settings
- Configuration via Protocol (CvP) using the existing PCI Express* link in your application, which allows for a less complex board design
Lower Your System Power
Stratix® V FPGAs reduce total power by 30 percent compared to previous-generation devices through key technologies:
- Programmable Power Technology that maximizes core performance while simultaneously reducing power
- TSMC's 28-nm high-K metal gate high-performance process optimized for lower power
- 0.85-V/0.9-V core voltage
- Partial reconfiguration
- Embedded HardCopy Blocks and integrated core and transceiver hard IP
Features
Transceivers
Intel® transceivers have a proven track record of meeting system bandwidth, power, and bit-error rate (BER) requirements. The technology leadership continues with the transceivers in our 28 nm Stratix® V FPGAs.
Partial & Dynamic Reconfiguration
With Stratix® V FPGAs, you can easily change the core and transceiver functionality on the fly while other portions of your design are still running.
System Integration
Because Stratix® V FPGAs enable high system integration, you get increased functionality in a smaller FPGA, lowering power and cost. Here, we'll discuss a number of Stratix® V innovations that make this level of integration possible.
Fractional PLLs
Fractional phase-locked loops (fPLLs) offer all the features available in previous-generation Altera® PLLs. You can find fractional PLLs in Altera's 28 nm devices, including Stratix® V, Arria® V, and Cyclone® V FPGAs.
