"One significant factor in our selection of Altera’s Stratix® II GX FPGAs for our products was Altera’s solid operational track record of delivering functional products on time and as promised. Stratix II GX devices are providing data rates of over 4 Gbps per channel in our systems, enabling our products to shorten image generation time without compromising diagnostic detail and helping us to maintain our worldwide leadership in medical imaging."

"As the only multi-channel, high density, transceiver-based FPGA capable of reliable operation over 3.3 Gbps, Stratix II GX FPGAs enable us to deliver the most advanced programmable logic technology, and the highest serial link speeds to our customers, in the smallest effective footprint. Stratix II GX FPGAs exhibit a very clean eye diagram at 6.25 Gbps on our newly announced DNMEG_S2GX circuit board, verifying their excellent signal integrity and underscoring Altera's commitment to producing and delivering bug-free products that perform as claimed. Following our first-pass success in producing the DNMEG_S2GX board, we plan to incorporate Stratix II GX FPGAs in all of our subsequent ASIC prototyping product designs to provide both high-density programmability and multigigabit transceiver-based connectivity."

"Altera’s delivery of fully functional, errata-free, Stratix II GX silicon has been instrumental to the timely development of our networking traffic accelerator products. The Stratix II GX solution provides many advantages that make it the only viable option for implementing FPGA-based PCI Express x8 interfaces at 2.5 Gbps. These advantages include the lowest transceiver power consumption, support for hot-socketing, and requirements for fewer support components resulting in less board area."

Thales Computers
"Altera’s transceiver-based FPGAs enabled us to realize a flexible multi-port RapidIO™ switch for our PMC-RapidIO product, which is impossible to accomplish with ASSPs. Stratix II GX devices continue Altera’s record of delivering devices with excellent signal integrity, and we look forward to leveraging their additional benefits in our upcoming products. Altera’s complete solution for us included the most advanced serial RapidIO intellectual property (IP) core available, as well as memory controller and PCI-X interface IP and the powerful Atlantic™ interface which made it easy to integrate our proprietary switch fabric design. Partnering with Altera helps us continue our position as a leading provider of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) solutions to the military and aerospace market

Ceterus Networks
“The Stratix II GX family extends Altera’s strengths in industry-leading signal integrity and power management. The Stratix II GX high-speed transceivers combined with the high logic densities that the family offers enables Ceterus to add greater functionality to its Universal Transport System products, allowing our customers to further extend the value of their existing network assets.”

"With devices ranging from to 20 high-speed serial channels at speeds up to 3.125 Gbps and very low power consumption per channel, the Stratix GX family fits the bill in scaling up to a full high-speed chassis or scaling down to the minimum requirement for a single line card. The flexibility of Altera's devices enabled us to implement our first-generation Multi-Service Packet Transport Platform (MXP) in parallel with the emerging PICMG 2.20 switch fabric standard."

“Altera’s leadership in programmable SDI solutions is enabling a new generation of cost-effective, highly-integrated video products. Previously, we used ASSPs for SDI, but these components cannot deliver the integration and flexibility benefits provided by the Stratix GX family. Other programmable logic alternatives required external clocking devices to achieve what Stratix GX devices could provide in a single chip. These factors, combined with the robustness of the Stratix GX transceivers, convinced us that Altera was the right choice for us, and the result is that we have the flexibility to respond quickly to our customers’ needs while keeping our development and production costs to a minimum.”
