HardCopy Stratix Structured ASIC Overview

Derived from the Stratix® FPGA architecture, HardCopy® Stratix devices offer a seamless migration path to high-volume, low-cost structured ASICs. On average, HardCopy Stratix devices boost performance by 50 percent and reduce power consumption by 40 percent compared the Stratix FPGA.

HardCopy Stratix devices are fully supported within the Quartus® II design software, offering the industry's first and only unified design flow from FPGA prototype to high-volume structured ASICs. The Quartus II software also provides both power and performance estimates for HardCopy Stratix devices, allowing for accurate, up-front design performance estimation and smooth design flow.

Tables 1 and 2 outline the HardCopy Stratix device family features, I/O pin counts, and package options.

Notes:

  1. The number of M-RAM blocks in this device differs from the number of M-RAM blocks in the corresponding Stratix FPGA.
  2. Total number of 9x9 multipliers. To obtain the total number of 18x18 multipliers per device, divide the total number of 9x9 multipliers by a factor of 2. To obtain the total number of 36x36 multipliers per device, divide the total number of 9x9 multipliers by a factor of 8.
