The design security feature is available when configuring Stratix III FPGAs using the
fast passive parallel (FPP) configuration mode with an external host (such as a MAX II
device or microprocessor), or when using fast active serial (AS) or passive serial (PS)
configuration schemes.

Stratix III Devices
Stratix III devices have built-in error detection circuitry to detect data corruption due
to soft errors in the configuration random-access memory (CRAM) cells. This feature
allows all CRAM contents to be read and verified continuously during user mode
operation to match a configuration-computed CRC value. The enhanced CRC circuit
and frame-based configuration architecture allows detection and location of multiple,
single, and adjacent bit errors which, in conjunction with a soft circuit supplied as a
reference design, allows don’t-care soft errors in the CRAM to be ignored during
device operation. This provides a steep decrease in the effective soft error rate,
increasing system reliability.
On-chip memory block SEU mitigation is also offered using the ninth bit and a
configurable megafunction in the Quartus II software for MLAB and M9K blocks
while the M144K memory blocks have built-in error correction code (ECC) circuitry.

Stratix III delivers Programmable Power, the only FPGA with user programmable
power options balancing today’s power and performance requirements. Stratix III
devices utilize the most advanced power-saving techniques, including a variety of
process, circuit, and architecture optimizations and innovations. In addition, user
controllable power reduction techniques provide an optimal balance of performance
and power reduction specific for each design configured into the Stratix III FPGA. The
Quartus II software (starting from version 6.1) automatically optimizes designs to
meet the performance goals while simultaneously leveraging the programmable
power-saving options available in the Stratix III FPGA without the need for any
changes to the design flow.
