Altera 公司的Cyclone III FPGA是低成本低功耗的器件，它采用TSMC的65nm低功耗器件制造，具有优化的软件特性，以最大限度降低功耗。Cyclone III FPGA系列的逻辑单元（LE）从5136到119088，存储器从414Kb到3888Kb，乘法器从23个到288个，PLL有2个和4个两种，全局时钟网络有10个和20个。Cyclone III FPGA可广泛应用在量大的对成本敏感的领域如汽车电子，消费类电子，无线通信和视频处理等。本文介绍了Cyclone III FPGA系列的主要特性和架构图以及Bitec HSMC DVI接口板详细电路图和HSMC 四路视频子板详细电路图。

Cyclone III FPGA Development Kit

The Cyclone® III device family offered by Altera is a cost-optimized, memory-rich FPGA family. Cyclone III FPGAs are built on TSMCs 65-nm low-power (LP) process technology with additional silicon optimizations and software features to minimize power consumption. With this third generation in the Cyclone series, Altera broadens the number of high volume, cost-sensitive applications that can benefit from FPGAs.
