Actel Fusion Mixed-Signal FPGAs

Semiconductor Vendor with ARM Processor RTL license from ARM

Product Description

Actel Fusion FPGAs integrate configurable analog, large flash memory blocks, comprehensive clock generation and management circuitry, and high-performance, flash-based programmable logic in a monolithic device. Actel's innovative Fusion architecture can be used with the Actel soft MCU core as well as the performance-maximized 32-bit ARM® Cortex™-M1 cores, offering the benefits of reprogrammability and time to market at an ASIC-level unit cost.

The highly configurable Cortex-M1 processor operates at up to 72 MHz in Actel’s flash-based, M1-enabled Fusion Mixed-Signal FPGAs. Providing a good balance between size and speed for embedded applications, the core can be implemented in as few as 4300 tiles, roughly 30 percent of a mixed-signal M1AFS600 Actel Fusion FPGA. The free delivery of the Cortex-M1 processor for use in Actel’s M1-enabled FPGAs provides system designers programmable flexibility and system-level integration, enabling the development of low-cost, high-performance systems. Actel will support the Cortex-M1 processor with its CoreConsole IP Deployment Platform, its SoftConsole program development environment, and Actel Libero IDE – all available for free download from Actel’s website.
