The EP3C5E144C8N is a Cyclone® III FPGA consists of 5136 vertically arranged logic elements (LEs), 414kb of embedded memory and 23 18x18 embedded multipliers. The architecture includes highly efficient interconnect and low-skew clock networks, providing connectivity between logic structures for clock and data signals. The logic and routing core fabric is surrounded by I/O elements (IOEs) and phase-locked loops (PLLs). The low-power Cyclone® III FPGA family is the third generation in the Altera® Cyclone FPGA series. With its unprecedented combination of low power, high functionality, the Cyclone III FPGA family broadens the number of high-volume, cost-sensitive applications that can benefit from an FPGA. The Cyclone III LS variant extends the family with higher density, higher memory, smaller packages and security features to protect your intellectual property (IP).
