The Breakthrough Advantage for FPGAs with Tri-Gate Technology White Paper
ثبت نشده
چکیده
In February 2013, Altera and Intel Corporation jointly announced that the next generation of Altera’s highest performance FPGA products would be produced using Intel’s 14 nm 3-D Tri-Gate transistor technology exclusively. This makes Altera the exclusive major FPGA provider of the most advanced, highest performance semiconductor technology available. To understand the impact of Tri-Gate technology on the capabilities of highperformance FPGAs, and how significant this advantage is in digital circuit speed, power, and production availability, a background on the development and state of Tri-Gate and related technologies is offered here.

A Tailored Approach to FPGA Process Selection
This white paper examines three categories of process characteristics, relates them to the internal structure of modern FPGAs, and then, in turn, looks at the impact the FPGAs have on the systems that employ them. In particular, a focus on the deployment of so-called FinFET transistors shows how Altera is exploiting Intel’s 14 nm Tri-Gate process to achieve a level of FPGA density, performance,...

We explore the design space of Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), Processors and ASICs – Hardware-Software Tri-design – in the framework of encryption for hand-held communication units. IDEA (International Data Encryption Algorithm) is used to show the tradeoffs for the suggested technologies. The measures for comparing different options are: Performance, Programmability and Power (P ). Mo...
متن کاملAchieving One TeraFLOPS with 28-nm FPGAs
Due to recent technological developments, high-performance floating-point signal processing can, for the first time, be easily achieved using FPGAs. To date, virtually all FPGA-based signal processing has been implemented using fixed-point operations. This white paper describes how floating-point technology on FPGAs is not only practical now, but that processing rates of one trillion floating-p...
