Altera launches Agilex 3 FPGAs for the intelligent edge

Altera launches the latest family of Agilex FPGA 3 chips to help developers expand the boundaries of the smart edge.

Sandra Rivera, CEO of ALTERA, told a press conference that Agilex 3 FPGA chips are now production. These devices are important to increase intelligence on the edge and enable the spread of artificial intelligence.

Altera (FPGA) gate papers are programmed chips that found a house in a wide range of edge applications, including robots, automation systems and medical equipment. Altera targets the latest Agilex FPGAS as well as Quartus Prime Pro, and FPGA AI Suite in Market Intelligent Edge.

It is a big launch of Altera because it is the first newly independent company. Altera was originally a chips company obtained by Intel in 2015 for $ 16.7 billion and was combined into the company’s data center unit under the brand of the PSG. But Intel has faced a number of manufacturing challenges and driving changes.

Nearly a year of preparation, Altera officially left on January 10, with Intel Executive Rivera for a long time as CEO.

“Agilex 3 FPGAS can perform a 1.9 -time fabric performance compared to the previous generation with 38 % of energy less than 38 %.

“Since last year, we have truly focused on the driving and excellence road map in implementation and leading a full wallet for all sectors and customers we support and serve us,” Rivera said. “This really begins with this waterfall strategy that we have for the entire Agilex road map that we have inserted into the market. Now we offer the last component of that in terms of Agilex Road Map. This is the most cost -cost -cost and power stabilizer of the road map.”

One big family

In the upper end, Altera offers her CIHPS Agilex 7 and AGLEX 9 for high mathematical density. It has Agilex 5 in the medium term and now Agilex 3 complements the product line.

Rivera said that the latest introductions from Agilex 5 and Agilex 3 are less than the barriers that prevent entry, increase market participation, and accelerate the innovation rate in general in the manufacture of programming logic. In the upper end, AGILEX 7 and AGLEX 9 are suitable for the infrastructure of the data center, network and communications applications, as well as the aviation sectors with the packaging capacity in RF and Multi Chip.

“In the medium term of applications, we have improved capabilities for power and performance, and we offer a better performance for every Watt for competition in that medium and medium range of applications and slides,” Rivera said.

She said that Altera’s programmed solutions meet the energy, performance and strict size requirements for integrated and smart edge applications. Empowering these devices solutions, along with Altera FPGA AI, enabling automatic learning engineers, software developers and FPGA designers to create dedicated FPGA AI using industry standards such as Tensorflow and Pytorch,
Development tools such as OpenVino and Quartus Prime Software.

Rivera said Agilex 3 FPGAS from Altera is available for order. High -performance architecture from FPGA, along with integrated tensioner blocks in artificial intelligence and integrated processors, allows companies to quickly update their integrated infrastructure and pressure over the age.

In robot control systems, Agilex 3 FPGAS brings in actual time control in multi -axis robot arms by combining machine learning capabilities into multi -sensor pipelines. In smart factory cameras, Agilex 3 FPGA discovers defects using a parallel processing with microscopic granules and coaches CNNS to identify objects to analyze huge amounts of data.

Rivera asked whether she was concerned about TSMC’s affected wars of potential tariffs if the trade war is leaking to Taiwan, as Donald Trump said before. She noted that Altera uses both TSMC and Intel Foundry (contract manufacturing in Intel), she is protected from such concerns. Intel has many chip factories in the United States, and TSMC is making chips in the United States now. Antlarse projects related to defense in particular require domestic production that will not be affected.

How FPGAS is used in this field

For developers and clients, this means that Altera brings a more intelligent account to the industrial and compact markets. This means that the intelligence of artificial intelligence can spread away to the daily edge devices, where more computing can be made effectively and effectively in the network.

Devices can enhance applications, including auto, cars and defense users. It can help spread drones with more intelligent intelligence, for example. It also allows smooth integration of sensors and operators in robots in smart factories. These robots require an accurate motor controlling algorithm to work efficiently on the factory floors.

“FPGA will be widely used in these environments because it can accommodate multiple operations in parallel and deal with the continuous flow of data flows,” Rivera said. “So, by taking advantage of the FPGA, in many cases it is already present and designed in the system, we see our integrated developers destroying automatic learning capabilities in the support pipeline or sensor pipeline to integrate AI algorithms into the robots on the edge.”

FPGAS is also used in theoscopy of machinery and magnetic resonance imaging in medical fields. They can bring a greater computing and efficient ability to process Lidar sensor data in self -driving cars. Since the chips are programmed in this field, they can be updated on the air to control the development of standards, algorithms, or capabilities. This makes designs in the future, and Rivera said.

Production is ready

Customers can now submit applications for AGLEX 3 production devices, development groups, selected partners and material boards of charge.

The first wave of Agilex 5 FPGAS E-Series has become fully qualified and launching large size production. Compared to FPGAS AGILEX 5 D, FPGAS Agilex 5 E-Series is improved for more energy-sensitive applications that require high performance with smaller shape and logical agents. Agilex 5 E-Series FPGAS, with the Acts Falling, brings high levels of integration and improving computing capabilities for smart edge applications, including video, industrial, robotics and medical
Systems.

In an ongoing attempt to enhance its cost -cost products portfolio, Altera expands the MAX 10 FPGA family with new package options. Production lines are now provided 10m40 and 10m50 MAX in changing BGA packages. This new package option greatly increases the value of these very integrated devices by reducing the shape factor while maintaining the IO number high, which leads to a decrease in the cost of ownership for users. Customers can now apply for engineering samples for Max 10 FPGAS in the VPBGA-610 package, with silicone production in Q3 2025.

“Through today’s ads, we continue to expand our programmable’s portfolio by providing a broader set of comprehensive solutions built on contracts of experience and a strong environmental system for partners,” Rivera said. “Through the latest FPGA products and development tools, we offer a smooth approach to providing high -quality smart solutions to the era of artificial intelligence.”

Altera shows the latest FPGA creations and development tools in the built -in world 2025 in Normorg, Germany.
