Lattice Certus-NX Redefines Low Power, High I/O Count FPGAs

Looking for an FPGA that delivers greater I/O density and lower power in a significantly smaller package? Check out Lattice’s new Certus™-NX family of FPGAs. Leveraging the tremendous advantages of Lattice’s new Nexus platform – the industry’s first low power FPGA platform to use a 28-nm FD-SOI process technology – Certus-NX offers industrial and automotive designers best-in-class power savings, up to a 3x smaller form factor, higher reliability, and instant-on performance.

Lattice Certus-NX Redefines Low Power, High I/O Count FPGAs

And to help designers meet rapidly changing connectivity and performance needs, the Certus-NX adds PCIe and Ethernet chip-to-chip connectivity.

Features include:

  • Up to 39K logic cells, 2.9 Mb embedded memory, 56 18 x 18 multipliers, 192 programmable I/O, one lane of 5 Gbps PCIe, two lanes of 1.25 Gbps SGMII, two ADCs (each 12-bit, 1 MSPS).
  • Packages as small as 6×6 mm, and in ball-pitch options of 0.5 and 0.8 mm.
  • Power modes – User selectable Low Power vs. High Performance modes, enabled by FD-SOI programmable back-bias.
  • Design security – ECDSA bitstream authentication, coupled with robust AES-256 encryption.
  • Instant-on configuration – I/O configures in 3 ms, and full-device as fast as 8 ms.

Additionally, Lattice released version 2.1 of the Radiant design software, which includes support for Certus-NX and SystemVerilog to make it easier than ever for developers to build applications based on the latest FPGA technology.

ISSI Expands Serial Flash offering to Include xSPI Compliant x8 Serial Devices (Octal Flash)

ISSI has expanded its Serial NOR and NAND flash portfolio to include xSPI compliant devices (Octal Flash). The new xSPI, stands for expanded SPI (xSPI), and is an electrical interface standard from the JEDEC Solid State Technology Association.

Products complying with the xSPI standard ensure compatibility of these high-performance x8 serial devices to chipset manufacturers who have designed with this standard.

The IS25LX is a high performance xSPI family designed for operation at 2.5/3V and can reach a read throughput of 266MB/s for instant-on applications.

The IS25WX is a 1.8V family of xSPI devices and increases this performance to 400MB/s.

The IS25WX256 is the first device available from the xSPI family & is a 1.8V 256Mbit x8 wide Serial flash.

For more information or samples of the IS25WX256, please contact Allyanz.

ISSI Announces Full Function LED Driver IC For Automotive Interior Lighting

ISSI Full Function LED Driver IC For Automotive Interior Lighting

150mA Linear LED Driver with Push-Button Input Combined with Courtesy Signal

Integrated Silicon Solution, Inc. (ISSI), a leader in advanced memory and analog IC solutions, has announced a single chip solution for automotive interior lighting.

The IS32LT3175 is a feature-rich AEC-Q100 certified linear LED driver enabling reduced BOM count for low-cost and compact designs.

IS32LT3175-full-function-linear-led-driver-ic-for-automotive-interior-lighting

Key features and benefits of the IS32LT3175 include:

  • Reduced BOM: LED driver with theatrical dimming in one small 8 pin SOP package resulting in 65% less components requiring less printed circuit board area.
  • Linear LED Driver: Low-noise, low-EMI, linear current source adjustable from 10~150 mA into one or more LEDs.
  • Switch Input: Integrates switch debounce and latching logic to enable use of low cost momentary contact switch. The switch On/Off state is held during start-stop operation when voltage drops below 6V for a short period of time.
  • Local or Remote: Can be controlled remotely by the automobile’s microcontroller or locally with a momentary contact switch. The local switch has priority over the remote microcontroller providing the user with direct control of the LED lamp.
  • No Microcontroller: Advanced LED performance can be adjusted with simple resistors, eliminating the need for a microcontroller.
  • AEC-Q100: Meets stress testing specifications making it suitable for use in the harsh automotive environment with guaranteed operation from –40°C to +125°C.

Please contact Allyanz today for further details and support on ISSI’s range of LED drivers, including samples & evaluation boards.

Configurable Advanced Touch-Screen LCD Video Evaluation Platform for Lattice FPGA Families

Configurable Advanced Touch-Screen LCD Video Evaluation Platform for Lattice FPGA Families

Lattice Semiconductor Corporation has announced the release of LCD-Pro, an advanced FPGA-based LCD video imaging and control solutions platform.

The LCD-Pro evaluation platform is based on the low-cost LatticeECP2
