Maximize Power Efficiency in Embedded Applications with Agilex™ 5 E-Series FPGAs and SoCs Memory Solutions - This white paper compares the availability of external memory types supported by Altera’s Agilex™ 5 E-Series FPGA and SoC family versus AMD Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ devices and the effect of the memory type on total power. The power estimates are calculated using a real-world design (4K multi-sensor camera implementing Warp IP), resulting in the following advantages of the Agilex 5 device: - 1.7x power saving by transitioning from DDR4 (competitors) to LPDDR5 (Altera), while the Agilex FPGA supports significantly higher memory bandwidth. - Total device power savings of 1.4x (DDR4 vs. DDR4) - 2026-04-17
