| Altera Corporation designs, manufactures, and markets programmable logic devices (PLD), HardCopy application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) devices, pre-defined design building blocks, and associated development tools. Its PLDs consist of field-programmable gate arrays (FPGA) and complex programmable logic devices (CPLD), which are semiconductor integrated circuits manufactured as standard chips that can be programmed to perform logic functions in electronic systems; and HardCopy structured ASIC devices that enable customers to transition from a high-density FPGA to a low-cost non-programmable implementation of design for volume production. The companys products primarily include Stratix III and Stratix IV high-end, system-level FPGAs; Cyclone II and Cyclone III low-cost, high-volume FPGAs; Arria GX low-cost, transceiver-equipped FPGAs; MAX non-volatile CPLDs for use used in glue logic functions; and HardCopy and HardCopy II structured ASIC devices. It also offers intellectual property cores that are pre-verified building blocks that execute standard system-level functions in their PLD design; and development tools consisting primarily of the Quartus II software design entry, design compilation, design verification, and device programming. Altera Corporation serves customers primarily in the communications, computer and storage, industrial, and consumer sectors. The company markets its products through a network of distributors, independent sales representatives, and direct sales personnel. It has operations primarily in North America, the Asia Pacific, Europe, and Japan. The company was founded in 1983 and is headquartered in San Jose, California. |
