Lattice Semiconductor has announced that it has been awarded the DesignVision award for its LatticeXP2 FPGA family and ispLEVER design tools. Just eight products, from among hundreds of nominations, received the accolade in a ceremony held during DesignCon 2008.
"This year's winners exemplify the highest level of innovation in today's industry," said IEC (International Engineering Consortium) executive vice president, Roger Plummer. "We are pleased to congratulate Lattice Semiconductor for its LatticeXP2 FPGA family, which received the 2008 DesignVision Award this week at DesignCon 2008." The IEC sponsors DesignCon.
The DesignVision Award is the second major industry recognition of the LatticeXP2 FPGA family; in December 2007, EDN magazine named the device family as one of the year's 'Hot 100' products. When the FPGA family was first announced in May 2007, the widely respected FPGA and Structured ASIC Journal noted: "the benefits of non-volatility put the LatticeXP2 in a league by itself."
"We are doubly honoured that both our LatticeXP2 FPGA family and our software design tools have been recognised with the DesignVision Award," said Stan Kopec, Lattice corporate vice president of marketing. "It has been both exciting and gratifying to witness, in just eight months, the enthusiastic market response to, and industry recognition of, these unique 90 nm non-volatile FPGAs."
