Design Security Feature
Cyclone III LS devices offer the following design security features:■ Internal oscillator enables system monitor and health check capabilities
Increased System Integration
■ High memory-to-logic and multiplier-to-logic ratio
■ High I/O count, low-and mid-range density devices for user I/O constrained applications
■ Adjustable I/O slew rates to improve signal integrity
■ Supports I/O standards such as LVTTL, LVCMOS, SSTL, HSTL, PCI, PCI-X, LVPECL, bus LVDS (BLVDS), LVDS, mini-LVDS, RSDS, and PPDS
■ Supports the multi-value on-chip termination (OCT) calibration feature to eliminate variations over process, voltage, and temperature (PVT)
■ Four phase-locked loops (PLLs) per device provide robust clock management and synthesis for device clock management, external system clock management, and I/O interfaces
■ Five outputs per PLL
■ Cascadable to save I/Os, ease PCB routing, and reduce jitter
■ Dynamically reconfigurable to change phase shift, frequency multiplication or division, or both, and input frequency in the system without reconfiguring the device
■ Remote system upgrade without the aid of an external controller
■ Dedicated cyclical redundancy code checker circuitry to detect single-event upset (SEU) issues
■ Nios® II embedded processor for Cyclone III device family, offering low cost and custom-fit embedded processing solutions
■ Wide collection of pre-built and verified IP cores from Altera and Altera Megafunction Partners Program (AMPP) partners
■ Supports high-speed external memory interfaces such as DDR, DDR2, SDR SDRAM, and QDRII SRAM
■ Auto-calibrating PHY feature eases the timing closure process and eliminates variations with PVT for DDR, DDR2, and QDRII SRAM interfaces
Cyclone III LS devices offer the following design security features:
■ Configuration security using advanced encryption standard (AES) with 256-bit volatile key
■ Routing architecture optimized for design separation flow with the Quartus II software
■ Design separation flow achieves both physical and functional isolation between design partitions
■ Ability to disable external JTAG port
■ Error Detection (ED) Cycle Indicator to core
■ Provides a pass or fail indicator at every ED cycle
■ Provides visibility over intentional or unintentional change of configuration random access memory (CRAM) bits
■ Ability to perform zeroization to clear contents of the FPGA logic, CRAM, embedded memory, and AES key
■ Internal oscillator enables system monitor and health check capabilities
Intel Corporation, commonly known as Intel, is an American multinational technology company that specializes in the design and manufacturing of semiconductor chips and related technologies for a wide range of computing and communication devices. Intel enables designers of electronic systems to rapidly and cost effectively innovate, differentiate, and win in their markets. Intel offers FPGAs, SoCs, CPLDs, and Power Solutions, to provide high-value solutions to customers worldwide.It is one of the world's largest and most influential semiconductor chip manufacturers.
Intel's microprocessors have played a pivotal role in the development of personal computers (PCs) and other computing devices. The Intel 4004, introduced in 1971, was the world's first commercially available microprocessor. Since then, Intel has continued to innovate and release a series of successful microprocessor families, such as the Intel 8008, Intel 8086, Intel Pentium, Intel Core, and more.
