| "The ECP3 FPGA family brings compelling features to the mid-range FPGA table, including 16 channels of 3.2 Gbit/s SERDES with 10GbE XAUI jitter compliance that take just 110 mw each. The DDR3 interfaces, up to 6.8 Mbits of memory and 500 MHz DSP slices, plus lower active and standby power, made the ECP3 FPGA the clear choice for us. These are devices that many engineers will be eager to put to good use in their designs." |

| "I see Lattice Mico32 as a quick-turning 32-bit soft alternative to smaller logic or signal-processing blocks. There is a development learning curve, but much less than with an ARM or RISC instruction set. For the time being, Lattice is right to promote generic, open-source RISC. It may prove just as valuable as all these fancy-shmancy name brands." |

| "Lattice’s higher-density, feature-encrusted upgrade of its LatticeXP family of budget FPGAs is another example of their recent efforts to push their trademark non-volatile technology into products designed to help it win market share in emerging high-volume applications. They must be doing a good job, since I’ve seen their aggressive and clever innovations driving the strategies of their larger competitors, such as Altera’s crash program to roll out its Arria family of lower-cost SerDes-equipped FPGAs to answer Lattice’s disruptively-priced ECP2M products. I also suspect that Xilinx introduced its own single-package 2-chip hybrid non-volatile version of its Spartan II FPGAs to try to compete with Lattice." |

"Because the LatticeXP device is non-volatile, it was very easy to migrate the design because the LatticeXP FPGA requires no external boot PROM. While the design consumed virtually 100% of the CPLD, just 20% of the LatticeXP resources were needed. And the cost of the Lattice FPGA was about half that of the CPLD...Non-volatility means a single-chip solution, saving space as well as reducing our design cycle. We’ve also been very pleased with the local Lattice support; Lattice people have been a genuine partner in these designs, and their expertise has been invaluable." |

"The new, Flash-based XP family of FPGAs from Lattice Semiconductor, continue to lower the threshold at which designers can consider using FPGAs as their design solution. The Non-Volatility feature combined with low price points and increased device performance will open many existing applications to FPGAs along with empowering new, unanticipated applications. Lattice is to be commended for delivering the popular Non-Volatility feature in their FPGAs just as designers are awakening to the potential Flash-based parts bring to the market. Semico believes Non-Volatility coupled with the FPGA architecture will be a powerful aid to the design community in the immediate future." |
