SAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Altera Corporation
(NASDAQ: ALTR) is demonstrating industrial solutions based on its
Altera® Cyclone® V and MAX® 10 field-programmable gate arrays
(FPGAs) and SoCs at the SPS IPC Drives conference in Nuremberg,
Germany, from November 24 to 26, (Hall 3, Stand 270). Visitors
to the Altera stand will discover the cost and performance
advantages that Altera's latest solutions for Industry 4.0 and IoT
bring to their next-generation industrial electronic systems
designs.
Altera will showcase a working Smart Factory for Industry
4.0, enabled by the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)
and powered by Altera Cyclone V SoCs. In this demonstration
developed by Exor International, multiple single-chip high-end
programmable logic controllers (PLCs) are linked via a variety of
real-time Industrial Ethernet interfaces and Time Sensitive Network
(802.1 TSN) IP from TTTech, communicating securely with the
enterprise over OPC Unified Architecture (OPC UA), an industrial
M2M communication protocol for interoperability developed by the
OPC Foundation.
Other in-booth demos include:
- High-availability redundant Ethernet--Demonstration of
seamless redundancy in an Altera FPGA and triple-speed Gigabit
Ethernet Layer 2 switch, with high-availability seamless redundancy
(HSR) and parallel redundancy protocol (PRP) IP developed by
Flexibilis
- High-productivity design flows for SoC--From C/C++ or
Simulink models and using model-based and software-based tool flows
from Altera and MathWorks, this demo shows how designers can
directly partition designs across embedded ARM® Cortex®-A9
processors and FPGA fabric in Altera SoC devices
- Industrial Ethernet--A single flexible Altera FPGA,
leveraging IP developed by Altera and Softing Industrial Automation
GmbH, demonstrating multiple industrial Ethernet protocols
including the PROFIBUS master and slaves protocol
- Machine vision--High-performance machine vision
applications in an Altera Cyclone V SoC, demonstrated by EBV
Electronik, with IP from DreamChip
- Motion-control acceleration--A high-performance
precision pick-and-place robotics system, enabled by motion control
acceleration with an Altera Cyclone V SoC
- SIL3 functional safety solutions and IP--Demonstration
of safety boards, reference designs and IP from NewTec and Yogitech
for increasing safety and compliance
- Smallest form-factor FPGA drive-on-chip--A single Altera
MAX 10 FPGA driving Altera's new Tandem Motion-Power 48V board
performs power conversion and multi-axis motion control. Altera's
MAX 10 family offers the only FPGAs with dual configuration,
analog-to-digital converter (ADC), digital signal processing (DSP)
and instant-on capability
