With the PolarFire family of cost-optimized FPGAs, Microchip/Microsemi continues to lead the non-volatile FPGA market. Comparable SRAM FPGAs use up to 50% more power than PolarFire FPGAs.
The devices are perfect for a variety of uses in wireline access networks, cellular infrastructure, the defense industry, commercial aviation, industrial automation, and the Internet of Things.
We provide FPGA product families spanning 1K to 500K Logic Elements as a true broad-range FPGA supplier (LEs).
While maintaining all the benefits traditionally associated with non-volatile FPGAs, such as the lowest static power, security, and Single Event Upset (SEU) immunity, the devices provide previously unheard-of capabilities.
Cost-Optimized Architecture
• Transceiver performance optimized for 12.7 Gbps, which yields smaller size
• Architecture and process optimizations for specific bandwidths (10 Gbps–40 Gbps) at specific densities
• 1.6 Gbps I/Os—best-in-class hardened I/O gearing logic with CDR (supports SGMII/GbE links on these GPIOs)
• High-performance, best-in-class hardened security IP in mid-range devices
Power Optimization
• The lowest static power—28 nm non-volatile process yields very low static power
• Optimized for 12.7 Gbps, which yields the lowest power
• Low-power modes—Flash*Freeze yields best-in-class standby power
• Integrated hard IP—DDR PHY, PCIe endpoint/root port, crypto processor
• Total power (static and dynamic)—up to 50% lower powe
