San Jose, Calif., March 27, 2006—Continuing to provide developers of high-speed applications with an efficient, low-risk design path, Altera Corporation (NASDAQ:ALTR) today announced that it has begun shipping its Stratix® II GX EP2SGX90E device and accompanying development kit. Featuring 12 transceivers and 90,960 equivalent logic elements (LEs), the EP2SGX90E device is the first member of the Stratix II GX FPGA family to ship to customers.

“Our EP2SGX90E FPGAs provide high-speed designers with an award-winning 90-nm device with embedded transceivers,” said David Greenfield, Altera’s senior director of product marketing for high-density FPGAs. “Altera is the first in the industry to deliver the port density, transceiver speed and optimized jitter performance that the Stratix II GX family offers. Our rigorous methodology of building test chips and using stable fabrication processes and device models enables us to continue our track record of early or on-time delivery of our 90-nm FPGA families.”
