The cost-optimized, 40-nm device family architecture features a low-power, programmable logic engine and streamlined transceivers and I/Os. Common interfaces, such as the Physical Interface for PCI Express® (PIPE) (PCIe®), Ethernet, and DDR3 memory are easily implemented in your design with the Quartus® II software, the SOPC Builder design software, and a broad library of hard and soft intellectual property (IP) solutions from Altera®. The Arria II GX device family makes designing for applications requiring transceivers operating at up to 6.375 Gbps fast and easy.
