SiliconBlue Pioneers New FPGA Technology for Handheld, Ultra-Low Power Applications



Monday, SiliconBlue(tm) announced a revolutionary new class of single-chip, ultra low-power FPGA devices that set a new industry standard for price, power and space along with unprecedented ASIC-like logic capacity for battery-powered, handheld consumer applications. Manufactured on TSMC's 65nm LP (low-power) standard CMOS process, the new single-chip iCE(tm) family of FPGAs incorporate the company's proprietary NVCM (Non-Volatile Configuration Memory) technology, eliminating external flash PROM costs while making it easy-to-use.

Even though this is advertizing in the news group, I'm going to say that this part looks very interesting. They have the tools available for down load on their web site and said tools appear to be available for Linux.

This posting is something of an experiment. I am batting 1000 on every time I design in a CPLD they quit making it. I want to see if the curse extends to merely talkign about a CPLD.
