MAX IIZ CPLDs manage several peripherals in the P1200 handsets, including an RFID reader, an infra-red data association (IRDA) sensor, a Bluetooth interface and LED control.
The new speed grade enables a 500MHz internal clock frequency, which is a 20% speed increase compared with the previous offerings, and extends Altera's lead in offering customers the industry's largest and fastest FPGAs.
"Altera is leading the way with 90nm high-density FPGAs".
"While our competition struggles to get their high-density product out, the entire Stratix II family is in volume production now", said David Greenfield, Altera's Senior Director of Marketing for High-Density FPGA Products.
"The combination of a strong partnership with world-leading foundry TSMC and our patented redundancy technology enabled us to achieve exceptional yield on these large Stratix II devices".
"Customers needing timely delivery of new devices and best-in-class performance can rely on Altera".
The new -3 speed grade for EP2S130 and EP2S180 FPGAs is available now.
All Stratix II devices have been in production since June.
In addition, industrial-temperature and lead-free Stratix II devices are now available.
