These new devices are derived from the PolarFire family and reduce customer costs by up to 30 percent by optimizing features and eliminating integrated transceivers. Offering the same proven low power consumption, security, and reliability as the market-leading classic PolarFire technology, the Core devices deliver cost savings without sacrificing functionality, processing power, or quality.
Designed for the automotive, industrial automation, medical, communications, defense, and aerospace markets, the PolarFire Core families feature Single Event Upset (SEU) immunity for mission-critical reliability and integrate a quad-core, 64-bit RISC-V® microprocessor for flexible computing capabilities. The Core devices are also designed for pin-for-pin compatibility across the entire PolarFire FPGA range to accommodate diverse design types, enhancing value in applications that prioritize cost over unnecessary features.
“Many FPGA competitors have recently raised their prices, which has made things difficult for manufacturers who need to bring their products to market quickly, at the lowest possible cost and with the lowest power consumption,” said Bruce Weyer, corporate vice president of Microchip’s FPGA business unit. “Our PolarFire Core FPGA and SoC families meet these price and power consumption requirements with market-leading solutions at an attractive price.”.
Whether for real-time control systems, distributed processing (edge), or safety-critical applications, PolarFire Core devices are designed to deliver the flexibility and longevity engineers need to accelerate innovation. Visit the website for more information on Microchip's FPGA and SoC portfolio.
Development Tools:
PolarFire Core devices are supported by Microchip's Libero® SoC Design Suite, the SmartHLS™ compiler, the VectorBlox™ Accelerator SDK, and Microchip's Mi-V ecosystem of partner platforms for rapid RISC-V application development. They are compatible with existing PolarFire FPGA and SoC development boards, which accelerate device development.
