Actel unveiled its ProASIC3 and ProASIC3E families, the company's third-generation of flash-based programmable logic solutions. With the ProASIC3/E families, Actel said it addresses strong market demand for full-featured, cost-effective FPGAs for consumer, automotive and other price-sensitive application areas. This 'value-based' segment represents the fastest growing component of the FPGA market.
"Over the past 10 years, flash technology has evolved into a disruptive technology, dramatically impacting every application it has touched," said John East, president and CEO of Actel. "Starting at $1,50, these new ProASIC3 devices represent the world's lowest-cost FPGA solutions while delivering performance and security advantages over comparable SRAM-based products. Flash-based FPGAs are now able to provide secure, low-power, live at power-up, reprogrammable solutions that deliver the time-to-market advantages of FPGAs at ASIC-like unit costs, mitigating the need for ASIC migration at higher volumes."
The single-chip devices deliver 64-bit, 66 MHz PCI performance and are the industry's first FPGAs with on-chip user flash memory. The devices range in density from 30 000 to 3 million system gates and deliver integrated secure in-system programmability.
