New Stratix IV E Dev Kit Accelerates 533-MHz DDR3-DIMM Designs

Includes 530K-Logic Element FPGA

Watch this video to learn about Altera’s new Stratix® IV E FPGA Development Kit, a complete system-level design environment available today for your high-density designs.  It’s the first FPGA-based development kit featuring a 533-MHz DDR3-DIMM memory interface.

In the video, you’ll see a 530K-logic element Stratix IV E FPGA interfacing at full speed with a 533-MHz DDR3 DIMM. The development kit lets you:

  • Develop and test memory subsystems with 533-MHz DDR3-DIMM, QDR II+, and RLDRAM II memory interfaces.
  • Speed up your verification cycle and time to market.
  • Prototype your designs and migrate to HardCopy® IV E ASICs, or to our highest density device, the Stratix IV E EP4SE820 FPGA with 820K logic elements.

Get the kit details and watch the video demo.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
