Altera FLEX 10KE devices are enhanced versions of FLEX 10K devices. Based on reconfigurable CMOS SRAM elements, the FLEX architecture incorporates all features necessary to implement common gate array megafunctions. With up to 200,000 typical gates, FLEX 10KE devices provide the density, speed, and features to integrate entire systems, including multiple 32-bit buses, into a single device.
The ability to reconfigure FLEX 10KE devices enables 100%testing prior to shipment and allows the designer to focus on simulation and design verification. FLEX 10KE reconfigurability eliminates inventory management for gate array designs and generation of test vectors for fault coverage.
