The largest Cyclone® III device family member, EP3CLS200, is now shipping.
With up to 200,000 logic elements (LEs), 8.2 Mbits of on-chip memory, and 396 embedded 18x18 multipliers, Cyclone III devices make up the highest-density low-cost FPGA family in the industry. All of these high-density features come with very low power consumption.

System Integration
The rich supply of logic, memory, and multipliers with extremely low power consumption enable you to use Cyclone III FPGAs in the heart of your cost-sensitive system. This family of FPGAs opens new possibilities for designers of low-cost applications including, but not limited to, H.264 encoder, pico basestation, digital television (DTV), and software-defined radio (SDR).
