Now available from Altera is the MAX 10 range of non-volatile FPGAs, the latest addition to its Generation 10 portfolio.
Using TSMC’s 55 nm embedded Flash process technology, they deliver dual-configuration Flash, analog and embedded processing capabilities in a small, low-cost, instant-on programmable logic device.
The chips are supported by a broad collection of design solutions that accelerate system development, including Quartus II software, evaluation kits, design examples, design services through the Altera Design Services Network (DSN), documentation and training.
MAX 10 FPGAs provide board area savings compared to other low-cost FPGAs by integrating up to 50K logic elements, Flash memory blocks (user Flash and dual-configuration Flash), analog-to-digital converters, embedded memory and DSP blocks, DDR3 external memory interfaces, embedded processing with soft-core Nios II processors, up to 500 user I/O and integrated power regulator.
The devices configure in less than 10 ms using on-die Flash memory. For system management applications, instant-on allows MAX 10 FPGAs to be the first usable device on a system board and control the bring-up of other board components. In data path applications, it allows them to provide responsive user interaction when powered on.
The on-die Flash storage supports dual configuration, allowing two FPGA designs in a single chip with the capability to perform fail-safe upgrades, whereby one Flash block is designated for upgrade images while the other block is reserved for a ‘safe’ factory image.
