Adaptive Logic Modules (ALM)
The adaptive logic module (ALM) is the logic building block in supported Intel FPGA devices, and is designed to maximize both performance and utilization. Each ALM has several different modes of operation, and can implement a variety of different combinatorial and sequential logical functions.
Hard Memory Controllers
Hard memory controllers are used to enable high-performance external memory systems attached to the Intel FPGA. A hard memory controller saves power and FPGA resources compared to the equivalent soft memory controller, and supports higher frequency operation.
Transceiver Protocol Hard IP
Hard intellectual property available in the Intel FPGA device to support the high-speed serial transceivers. Transceiver protocol hard IP saves power and FPGA resources compared to the equivalent soft IP, and simplifies the implementation of the serial protocol.
