Any statements about our expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance are not historical facts and may be forward-looking. We use words or phrases such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “projects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “continue,” “ongoing,” “future,” “potential” and similar words or phrases to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve estimates, assumptions, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. The key factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements include global economic conditions and uncertainty, the compromised liquidity of auction rate securities in our long-term marketable securities portfolio, market acceptance and demand for our new products, our reliance on export sales, the concentration of our sales in the communications equipment end market, the affect of global economic conditions on the repayment of certain of our receivables, the effect of the downturn in the economy on capital markets, technology and development risks, the transition to a new executive management team, our having clearly focused our business on identifying and pursuing programmable logic opportunities where we have sustainable and differentiated market positions, the impact of competitive products and pricing, and the other risks that are described herein and that are otherwise 3 described from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including but not limited to, the items discussed in “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part I of this report. You should not unduly rely on forward-looking statements because our actual results could materially differ from those expressed in any forward- looking statements made by us. Further, any forward-looking statement applies only as of the date on which it is made. We are not required to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

  • 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.

  • Introduction
    Field-Programmable Gate Arrays: A Fresh Look at a Classic Embedded Design Tool Leah VanSyckel and Greg Harrison Introduction In “Using FPGAs to Improve Embedded Design,” Sealevel Engineer Greg Harrison explains FPGAs on a technical level and illustrates their use cases with Sealevel products. He shows FPGAs to be useful in interface conversions, COM Express simplification and optimizing embedded systems. In this white paper, we will dis- cuss the basic definitions and the benefits of using FPGAs as well as their future in smart technology. 1 Sealevel.com • 864.843.4343 SL9299-h18 Field-Programmable Gate Arrays: A Fresh Look at a Classic Embedded Design Tool What is an FPGA? A Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is an integrated circuit (IC), or chip, used in embedded system design. There are four main FPGA producers: Xilinx, Intel Programmable Solutions Group (Intel PSG, formerly Altera), Lattice Semiconductor and Microsemi, a Microchip company (formerly Actel). The primary characteristic of an FPGA is that it is programmable after manufacturing, which gives it versatility in application use and customization. These architectures are built and programmed by embedded hardware engineers, such as Sealevel’s Greg Harrison. They require a fundamental understanding of computing hardware. Engineers design with FPGAs using hardware description languages (HDL), including VHDL and Verilog. These devices contain architectures of interconnects and logical elements that are highly configurable. These elements, when in a completed, programmed device, can accept an input and produce a logical output based on the programmed configuration. These activities happen at high speeds due to parallel, independent logic. Their programmable, flexible routing and low-power demands make them ideal for telecommunications, networking, and signal/data processing.

  • Architecture of Field-Programmable Gate Arrays
    Architecture of Field-Programmable Gate Arrays JONATHAN ROSE, MEMBER, IEEE, ABBAS EL GAMAL, SENIOR MEMBER, IEEE, AND ALBERT0 SANGIOVANNI-VINCENTELLI, FELLOW, IEEE Invited Paper A survey of Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) architec- tures and the programming technologies used to customize them is presented. Programming technologies are compared on the basis of their vola fility, size, parasitic capacitance, resistance, and process technology complexity. FPGA architectures are divided into two constituents: logic block architectures and routing architectures. A classijcation of logic blocks based on their granularity is proposed and several logic blocks used in commercially available FPGA ’s are described. A brief review of recent results on the effect of logic block granularity on logic density and pe$ormance of an FPGA is then presented. Several commercial routing architectures are described in the contest of a general routing architecture model. Finally, recent results on the tradeoff between the fleibility of an FPGA routing architecture its routability and density are reviewed. I. INTRODUCTION The architecture of a field-programmable gate array (FPGA), as illustrated in Fig. 1, is similar to that of a mask-programmable gate array (MPGA), consisting of an array of logic blocks that can be programmably interconnected to realize different designs. The major Fig. 1. FPGA architecture difference between FPGA’s and MPGA’s is that an MPGA is programmed using integrated circuit fabrication to form input through one switch. FPGA routing architectures metal interconnections, while an FPGA is programmed provide a more efficient MPGA-like routing where each via electrically programmable switches much the same as connection typically passes through several switches.
