Cyclone V Device Overview
The Cyclone® V devices are designed to simultaneously accommodate the shrinking
power consumption, cost, and time-to-market requirements; and the increasing
bandwidth requirements for high-volume and cost-sensitive applications.
Enhanced with integrated transceivers and hard memory controllers, the Cyclone V
devices are suitable for applications in the industrial, wireless and wireline, military,
and automotive markets.
