Altera Corporation (www.altera.com) is the world's pioneer of system-on-a-programmable-chip
(SOPC) solutions. With annual revenues in CY 2003 of $827.2 million, Altera
combines the reprogrammable logic technology originally invented in 1983 with
software tools, intellectual property (IP), and design services to provide
high-value programmable solutions to approximately 14,000 customers worldwide.
Altera is headquartered in San Jose, California, and employs approximately
2,000 people in 14 countries.
Committed to helping customers achieve their business goals, Altera aggressively
invests in research and development efforts despite global economic pressures.
Altera's FPGAs are uniquely positioned to displace costly, high-risk solutions
such as ASICs and ASSPs, and offer a viable, more flexible alternative to
digital signal processors—delivering value to a much broader market than
was previously addressed by programmable logic.
By partnering even more closely with our customers, Altera continues to develop
new products and tools. Altera’s portfolio of industry-leading FPGAs,
CPLDs, and structured ASIC products have been overwhelmingly accepted in traditional
markets and have quickly been incorporated into many new applications. Building
on the award-winning Stratix® device family, Stratix II FPGAs offer twice
the performance and 40 percent lower cost than their predecessor for high-density,
general purpose applications.
Cyclone™ II FPGAs continue the low-cost FPGA leadership Altera established
with the first-generation Cyclone family and delivers a flexible, low-risk,
and low-cost solution that makes it a highly attractive alternative to low-
and mid-density ASICs. HardCopy® Stratix devices give volume-driven applications
designers the ability to seamlessly migrate to a low-cost structure ASIC solution.
MAX® II CPLDs set new CPLD standards and extend Altera’s fifteen
years of market leadership.
A library of
IP cores for differentiation, including the Nios® II processor, gives
customers a competitive edge. The Quartus® II design software supports
all Altera® products and is the easiest to use and most powerful design
software available today for CPLD, FPGA, and structured ASIC designs. It offers
customers full, risk-free design flexibility with maximum return on investment.
