| Hi All! Just a "n00b" question about the FPGA used in Vampire 600V2. It looks like it's an Altera Cyclone III with ~ 40K LE's.. Doing a quick check on Mouser a Cyclone V E with ~ 40K LEs appears a lot cheaper than the older Cyclone III. I would also assume a V would be faster/lower power than a III because it's 28nm instead of 65nm. The Cyclone V dev boards do look more expensive though.. Why not use a Cyclone V E instead of a Cyclone III? Thanks, John
