10CX150
AlteraCyclone 10 GXThe 10CX150 is a Cyclone 10 GX FPGA from Altera, built on a 20 nm process. It provides 54,770 adaptive logic modules (ALMs) (150,000 logic elements (LEs)), about 109,540 LUT4 equivalents, 219,080 flip-flops, 9.3 Mb of block RAM and 156 variable-precision DSP blocks. It offers up to 284 user I/O pins and 12 XCVR transceivers at up to 12.5 Gb/s, with hard PCI Express Gen2 x4 blocks. It is available in 3 packages, from the U484 (19 × 19 mm) to the F780 (29 × 29 mm). Designs are built with Altera Quartus Prime.
