Altera’s Stratix III FPGAs were presented with the International Engineering Consortium’s (IEC) DesignVision Award in the Semiconductor and IC category. Stratix III FPGAs were recognised by the IEC for their unique and innovative architecture, which enables Altera to deliver some of the industry’s highest performance and lowest power high-end FPGAs.
The devices were also recognised for their DDR3 memory interface, which offers memory performance speeds in excess of 1067 Mbps.
Started in 2005, the IEC's DesignVision Award recognises technologies, applications, products and services judged to be the most unique and beneficial to the industry. DesignVision Award candidates are judged based on innovation, uniqueness, market impact, customer benefits and value to society.
A key architectural innovation of Stratix III FPGAs is their power reduction capability, which includes Programmable Power Technology and Selectable Core Voltage. With these innovations, Altera is able to lower the devices' total power consumption by up to 50%, when compared to previous-generation high-end FPGAs.
