The Cyclone III device family is based on TSMC low-power process technology, offering densities from 5K to 200K logic elements and memory from 0.5Mbits to 8Mbits with static power consumption less than ¼ watt. It includes two variants: Cyclone III for lowest power and cost, and Cyclone III LS with security features such as AES encryption and design separation. The family supports various I/O standards, external memory interfaces like DDR and DDR2, embedded multipliers for DSP, and up to four PLLs per device. It is ideal for portable and handheld applications, high-volume, low-power, and cost-sensitive designs.
