Altera is an American programmable logic company whose field programmable gate array business was founded in 1983, acquired by Intel in 2015 and separated again as a standalone company in 2025 when the private equity firm Silver Lake took a majority stake. It designs FPGAs and structured application specific integrated circuits used where a design must be reconfigurable after manufacture, which makes them common in communications infrastructure, industrial control, automotive, aerospace, defence and test equipment. Headquartered in San Jose, the company sells its Agilex and Cyclone device families alongside the Quartus design software engineers use to program them.
