Cost-Optimized PolarFire® Core FPGAs and SoCs from Microchip Technology Deliver High Performance with a 30% Lower Price Tag

In the current marketplace, Bill of Material (BOM) costs are continuing to rise and developers must work to optimize performance and budgets. Recognizing that a significant portion of the mid-range FPGA market does not require integrated serial transceivers, Microchip Technology (Nasdaq: MCHP) is releasing PolarFire® Core Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) and System on Chips (SoCs). The new devices are a derivative of the base PolarFire families and reduce customer costs by up to 30 percent by optimizing features and removing integrated transceivers. Offering the same industry-leading, low-power consumption and proven security and dependability of classic PolarFire technology, Core devices provide savings without sacrificing functionality, processing capability or quality.

Designed for automotive, industrial automation, medical, communication, defense and aerospace markets, PolarFire Core families feature Single Event Upset (SEU) immunity for mission-critical reliability and integrate a quad-core, 64-bit RISC-V® microprocessor (MPU) for flexible compute capabilities. Additionally, the Core devices are designed to ...
