Altera Corp.’s IV E FPGA Development Kit is based on a high-performance, high-density Stratix IV EP4SE530 FPGA, which features 530K logic elements (LEs) and provides on average 25 percent higher performance than currently available competitive FPGAs. The development kit is the first kit available to feature an FPGA interfacing with a 533MHz DDR3 DIMM.
Using this kit, customers can develop and test memory subsystems consisting of DDR3 DIMMs, QDR II+, and RLDRAM II memory interfaces. The Stratix IV EP4SE530 FPGA is pin compatible with Stratix III FPGAs, allowing customers to seamlessly migrate their Stratix III FPGA design to a higher density Stratix IV E FPGA.
