Chapter 1: Overview for the Arria V Device Family
Arria V Feature Summary
Arria V devices provide interface support flexibility with up to 10-Gbps transceivers,
1.25-Gbps LVDS, 1.333-Gbps memory interfaces with low latency, and support for all
mainstream single-ended and differential I/O standards, including 3.3 V. Arria V
devices also offer the lowest system cost by requiring only three power supplies to
operate the devices and a thermal composite flip chip ball-grid array (BGA)
packaging option. Arria V devices also support innovative features, such as
configuration via protocol (CvP), partial reconfiguration, and design security.
Arria V devices provide the power, features, and cost you require to succeed with
your designs. With these innovations, Arria V devices deliver ideal performance and
capability for a wide range of applications.
