Lattice Semiconductor Corporation announces a programmable PCI Express solution that incorporates the LatticeECP™ and LatticeEC™ FPGA devices, the Genesys Logic GL9711 PCI Express PHY, and Northwest Logic’s PCI Express IP core. Northwest Logic, the newest member of the Lattice ispLeverCORE™ Connection program, provides its single lane PCI Express IP core tailored to the LatticeEC and LatticeECP device architectures. The LatticeECP-DSP and LatticeEC FPGA device families are architected to provide optimized feature sets combined with one of the lowest total solution costs of any FPGAs. The LatticeECP-DSP products, targeted for high performance DSP applications, provide up to a 50% performance and 75% logic utilization improvement over other low-cost solutions when implementing common DSP functions. The LatticeEC FPGA product family, targeted for general-purpose FPGA applications, is in response to the market's demand for architecturally streamlined logic solutions. The GL9711 supports both 8-bit and 16-bit PIPE interfaces at 250 and 125 MHz PIPE clock, respectively. It also has an elastic buffer to absorb the potential clock rate difference up to ± 300 ppm.
