FPGA Integrated Modules:
(Not currently available to new customers)
Our FPGA Integrated Modules provide everything you need in
a DIP package to quickly utilize the most advanced FPGAs on the market.
|
Key Features:
- Packaging - Most small labs don't have the ability to
handle working with
today's fine-pitch and BGA packaging. Our modules convert the
packaging of the FPGA device to a DIP package that is compatible
with most breadboard and wire-wrap applications..
- Integrated Voltage Regulators - Most FPGAs require multiple
voltages to operate. Our modules incorporate onboard voltage regulators
to provide all necessary voltages from a single 5V source.
- Multivolt IO - Today's
FPGA I/Os operate at 3.3V, 2.5V, or lower. However, many other
ICs still operate with 5V I/Os only. Our modules include onboard
voltage translators that allow them to be integrated with most
systems that operate at 5V, 3.3V, or 2.5V.
- Clock Generation - Each module integrates an onboard
20MHz clock that can be used with an FPGA PLL to provide a complete
clocking solution.
- ISP Header and Configuration Device - Programming of
the device is done through an In-System Programmable (ISP) header.
This eliminates the need to remove the component from the system
in order to reprogram it. Plus, an onboard configuration device
is provided to retain the FPGA code.
- Test Points - The DIP package pins are extended on the
top side of the device to provide quick and easily accessible
test points for many probing solutions.
- Resource Integration - Each FPGA device comes integrated
with RAM, embedded multipliers for Digital Signal Processing (DSP),
PLLs, and on-chip terminations. Integrating all of this capability
in a small package greatly reduces the time to hand build custom
prototypes.

| In addition,
by utilizing today's most advanced FPGA technology the benefits include:
lowest cost per logic element, highest logic densities, fastest operating
speeds, improved signaling, reduced chip count, along with many others.
Altera logic devices can be programmed with Altera's FREE
Quartus II software. We provide Quartus II project files that come
with everything setup to allow you to quickly add your own logic.
Quartus II projects are provided for both VHDL and schematic entry,
so you can program in whatever environment you feel comfortable
with.
An Altera USBBlaster, Byteblaster II, or an Altera compatible third
party programming cable is required to download code to our devices.
We sell our Byteblaster II compatible programmer, the X-Blaster,
for $20 when purchased with one of our modules.
