Overview for the Arria II Device Family

The Arria® II device family is designed specifically for ease-of-use. The cost-optimized, 40-nm device family architecture features a low-power, programmable logic engine and streamlined transceivers and I/Os. Common interfaces, such as the Physical Interface for PCI Express® (PCIe®), Ethernet, and DDR3 memory are easily implemented in your design with the Quartus® II software, the SOPC Builder design software, and a broad library of hard and soft intellectual property (IP) solutions from Altera. The Arria II device family makes designing for applications requiring transceivers operating at up to 6.375 Gbps fast and easy.
