CYCLONE FX Performance Metrics

High-Speed Programming

Time is money, especially when programming many thousands of devices. For those who need the fastest programming capability,  CYCLONE FX  programmers provide extremely high-speed and robust debug communications rates for ARM® Cortex® devices. With debug shift speeds reaching 75 Mbits/s, the download and verification rates achieved for almost every ARM Cortex device, even low-speed Cortex M0 parts, are in the MBytes per second range.

This results in the following advantages :

• In most cases, the flash programming rate that is achieved is actually limited by the physical programming time of the underlying flash memory.

• The verification rate for actual byte-by-byte verification is extremely fast. Even for devices where the flash programming rate is limited by the flash  architecture, the verification rate that the Cyclone FX achieves results in substantial time savings.

• As memory sizes increase and target flash technology improves, the impressive bandwidth advantage that the Cyclone FX has over competitive products will result in ever larger savings on the production line.
