The design tools also include support for the latest Lattice Semiconductor devices. Major changes include the handling of preferences in FPGA designs. You can modify preferences at any stage of the design, using the editing tools to their fullest extent. For FPGA designs, IPexpress replaces Module/IP Manager. In addition to generating modules, IPexpress includes the infrastructure that allows you to try out ispLeverCORE products as cores supporting this flow are released. The Map Design, Place & Route Design, and I/O Placement processes have better performance. Several new properties give you more control. To provide better focused information and faster access, the online help is now organized by device type. Some of the changes affect how you import designs from previous versions of ispLEVER. For more information, see “Importing Existing Projects into ispLEVER 5.1” on page 2. For updates to this software and documentation, run ispUPDATE. Choose ispUPDATE from the Lattice Semiconductor program group in the Windows Start menu. ispLEVER 5.1 Release Notes 1 Importing Existing Projects into ispLEVER 5.1 New Features and Enhancements Importing Existing Projects into ispLEVER 5.1 Below are some important points for migrating designs from prior versions of ispLEVER into version 5.1: Once you import a design into version 5.1 of the ispLEVER system, you cannot reopen the design in the previous version. In case you need to work with the design in the previous version, make a copy of the design before importing it. With version 5.1, ispLEVER’s handling of preferences is greatly improved. Part of the improvement is the use of two preference files instead of one: the previous Physical Preference File (PRF) and a new Logical Preference File (LPF). For more information about the new preference flow, see “Preference Flow Enhancement for FPGA Designs” on page 3. When you open an existing project in the new Project Navigator, you see a prompt message stating that the current version of ispLEVER requires an LPF. Click Yes. The software copies the logical preferences from the existing PRF to a new LPF. It also makes a backup copy of the PRF named <project>.pr5. Then you can continue to design and run your project in ispLEVER 5.1.

    LATTICE SEMICONDUCTOR The Leader in Low Power, Small Form Factor, Secure FPGAs First Quarter, 2019 Lattice Semiconductor (NASDAQ: LSCC) [1] Safe Harbor This presentation contains forward-looking statements that involve estimates, assumptions, risks and uncertainties, including all information under the heading 1Q 19 Business Outlook. Lattice believes the factors identified below could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this presentation include global economic uncertainty, overall semiconductor market conditions, market acceptance and demand for our new and existing products, the Company's dependencies on its silicon wafer suppliers, the impact of competitive products and pricing, and technological and product development risks. In addition, actual results are subject to other risks and uncertainties that relate more broadly to our overall business, including those risks more fully described in Lattice’s filings with the SEC including its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2017 and its quarterly filings on Form 10-Q. Certain information in this presentation is identified as having been prepared on a non-GAAP basis. Management uses non- GAAP measures to better assess operating performance and to establish operational goals. Non-GAAP information should not be viewed by investors as a substitute for data prepared in accordance with GAAP. You should not unduly rely on forward-looking statements because actual results could differ materially from those expressed in any forward- looking statements. In addition, any forward-looking statement applies only as of the date on which it is made.

  • FPGA Design Security Issues: Using the Ispxpga® Family of Fpgas to Achieve High Design Security
    White Paper FPGA Design Security Issues: Using the ispXPGA® Family of FPGAs to Achieve High Design Security December 2003 5555 Northeast Moore Court Hillsboro, Oregon 97124 USA Telephone: (503) 268-8000 FAX: (503) 268-8556 www.latticesemi.com WP1010 Using the ispXPGA Family of FPGAs to Lattice Semiconductor Achieve High Design Security Introduction In today’s complex systems, FPGAs are increasingly being used to replace functions traditionally performed by ASICs and even microprocessors. Ten years ago, the FPGA was at the fringe of most designs; today it is often at the heart. With FPGA technology taking gate counts into the millions, a trend accelerated by embedded ASIC-like functionality, the functions performed by the FPGA make an increasingly attractive target for piracy. Many tech- niques have been developed over the years to steal designs from all types of silicon chips. Special considerations must now be made when thinking about protecting valuable Intellectual Property (IP) implemented within the FPGA. The most common FPGA technology in use today is SRAM-based, which is fast and re-configurable, but must be re-configured every time the FPGA is powered up. Typically, an external PROM is used to hold the configuration data for the FPGA. The link between the PROM and FPGA represents a significant security risk. The configuration data is exposed and vulnerable to piracy while the device powers up. Using a non-volatile-based FPGA eliminates this security risk. Traditionally, non-volatile FPGAs were based on Antifuse technology that is secure, but very expensive to use due to its one-time programmability and higher manufacturing costs.
