[btarunr]

Lattice Semiconductor, the low power programmable leader, today announced the addition of new, logic-optimized Lattice Certus -NX FPGA devices to its leadership small FPGA portfolio. The new offering includes two new capacity points, the Certus -NX-28 and Certus -NX-09, and multiple package options that offer class-leading power efficiency, small size, and reliability with flexible migration options. These devices are designed to accelerate a broad range of Communications, Computing, Industrial, and Automotive applications.

"Lattice is committed to delivering continued innovation in small, low power FPGAs to empower our customers with optimized solutions for space-constrained applications ranging from sensor interfacing to co-processing to low power AI," said Dan Mansur, Corporate Vice President, Product Marketing, Lattice Semiconductor. "We're excited to expand our Nexus-based small FPGA offerings by adding more migratable logic and package options including 0.8 mm pitch, ideal for Industrial applications."



"We are happy to see Lattice introduce new Certus-NX devices offering more low power, small footprint and migration options to the Industrial applications requiring high reliability," said Alberto Martin-Consuegra, VP Operations & Quality, ABB Process Automation.

Built on the award-winning Lattice Nexus FPGA platform, the new Lattice Certus-NX FPGAs offer the following features in comparison to competing FPGAs of a similar class in market:

• Leadership Power Efficiency with PCIe Gen 2
  • Up to 4X lower power enabling longer operating life for battery powered applications and simplified thermal management
  • Power/performance leadership enabled by FD-SOI process technology
• Industry-leading I/O Optimization in Smallest Form Factor
  • Up to 3X small form factor
  • Highest I/O count per package with up to 2X more I/O per mm²
  • Total cost ownership advantage through low power and no power sequencing requirements
  • Smallest PCIe and Gigabit Ethernet implementation in packages as small as 36 mm²
• Highest Reliability and Device Security
  • Up to 100X lower soft error rate, improving system reliability for safety-critical applications
  • Built-in SEC and memory block ECC for SEU protection
  • Up to 12X faster instant-on configuration performance

Reinhard Heizmann, Head of Distance Sensors R&D, Sensing Efficiency at SICK AG, said "With the new Lattice Certus-NX devices, we are able to optimize the right memory / LUT footprint, low power density, small packages, and migration options required for our sensors."

The new Certus-NX FPGA devices are shipping today and are supported by the latest release of Lattice Radiant design software.

PCIe Gen 2...lol

I love the idea of vehicles getting more tech savvy...however with the rate of increase, I find vehicles need to be on the cutting edge of tech just to maintain their relevance even a few years into the future since the technology is advancing so quick in this industry... my 2020 Honda feels ancient...and it is

I'll also add that vehicle manufacturers just pump out cars and leave them for dead with 0 software updates down the road...so basically no new features after you buy it... to my knowledge only Tesla and Rivian actually add features after you buy the car...

to my knowledge only Tesla and Rivian actually add features after you buy the car...

Actually Tesla has been reported to REMOVE features from owner's cars after purchase

Are you kidding? No one using an FPGA like these are going to scoff at that. Know your audience.

This speaks volumes, and NOT in your favor.

A LOT of people are going to have fun with these! Very cool!
