Here is the PR-article where they announce to stop comparing to gates... Altera: Out with Gate Counts, In with Logic Elements http://www.altera.com/corporate/news_room/releases/releases_archive/2001/products/pr-logic_measurement.html Altera devices are Macrocells, Logic Elements or Adaptive Logic Modules. The combinatorial complexity of the primitive elements vary and they hold 1, 1 or 2 bits in the register. So depending on your register count or combinatorial complexity you end up with a specific device, where from my experience the I/O pin, OnChip memory or DSP Block count is leading the device choiche. Greatings, Karl.

Hi,

Is there an Altera application to count the number of equivalent gates
for Logic Elements, Memory, DSP blocks, PLL etc... ?

Thanks...

I don't find this information..
