Flexible, reliable, and able to support multiple standards on the same platform, Altera® FPGAs let you build adaptability and an obsolescence-proof design path into your industrial automation and process control products. From programmable logic controllers (PLCs) to motion/motor controllers, I/O modules, human machine interface (HMI)/operator panels, and intelligent drives, you will be able to reconfigure your products during development or even in the field. You will also be able to realize lower costs of ownership, while being more productive. Altera devices are also fully functional in the industrial temperature range, so extreme cold or heat won't hamper performance, and you will be able to migrate your intellectual property (IP)/solutions to future product families.
Altera provides a comprehensive product portfolio to accelerate industrial application development—industrial reference designs, Quartus® II software/SOPC Builder development tools suite, 32-bit Nios® II embedded processor, on-board memory, a vast set of I/O pins, and a wide range of standard and industrial IP from Altera and our partners.
Our configurable Nios® II embedded processor allows you to easily create a microprocessor-based system that is customized to match your application requirements. Our SOPC Builder system generation tool automates IP configuration and integration. Together with our partners, we offer more than 200 IP cores that you can use off-the-shelf to create a hardware system in just minutes using SOPC Builder. With our Quartus® II design software, you can minimize power, optimize speed, and reduce system compile times in your FPGA design.
