ProductsAltera's programmable logic devices (PLDs) enhance design flexibility and reduce time-to-market for companies in the communications, computer peripheral, and industrial markets. Your company can create system-on-a-programmable-chip (SOPC) solutions on a single PLD by using high-performance devices, software development tools, and sophisticated intellectual property cores- along with embedded processors, memory, and other complex logic. Our SOPC solutions are helping to revolutionize the entire communications industry and enable Internet technology advances.  |  |  | | Altera PLDs provide fast system performance, high density, and advanced system-level features for your every design need, with in-system-programmability and flexibility unmatched by application-specific standard products (ASSPs) or ASICs. | Altera's design software gives you a fully integrated SOPC design environment. The Quartus II design software offers state-of-the-art features- such as block-level editing, PowerFit fitting technology for logic mapping, placement, and routing, and enhanced timing analysis. The MAX+PLUS II software provides an integrated, easy-to-use interface, compatible with industry-standard EDA tools.
|  |  | Altera offers a wide variety of complex system-level IP functions optimized for Altera device architecture. These IP cores can help reduce your time-to-market, allowing you to spend time customizing proprietary cores. Integrate several megafunctions onto a single PLD for a complete system solution.
| Altera design services partners offer designers complete product development solutions. Certified Design Center (CDC) members and Altera Consultants Alliance Program (ACAP) partners help designers shorten their design cycles and decrease their development costs and risk. |  |  | | To support the development and verification of system-on-a-programmable-chip designs, Altera and its partners offer a variety of development kits and cables. They aid the designer in achieving the highest possible performance for the device and design. | Visit the Literature site for the latest data sheets, application notes, brochures, and other materials, available as Adobe PDFs.
