[Lattice Semiconductor New Product Announcement Press Briefing]

The iCE40 UltraLite FPGA, a recent addition to Lattice's successful iCE40 Ultra™ product family, is the industry's smallest and lowest power consumption device. Combining extremely low power consumption, minimal footprint, and high integration density, the device enables manufacturers to easily integrate a wide variety of features into mobile devices.

During this Korea press briefing, Kathy Bladen, Vice President of Marketing at Lattice, stated: "The newly launched iCE40 UltraLite device is a cutting-edge device developed with considerable effort to enable our customers to enhance user experience and strengthen competitiveness in the smartphone, wearable, and other mobile device markets. In consumer and industrial handheld markets, and particularly in mobile device markets sensitive to size constraints, power consumption, and cost, the iCE40 UltraLite device will be an ideal solution for remote controls, barcode readers, pedometers, power management, or unique features." Shinsuke Yoshizaki, Senior Manager of Fujitsu's Mobile Phone Hardware Development Center, stated: "With Lattice Semiconductor's new iCE40 UltraLite device, we can not only reduce development time for future mobile and wearable platforms, but also the ultra-low power consumption of the iCE40 UltraLite device combined with its ultra-compact footprint is expected to enhance functional flexibility for wearables at lower cost compared to ASIC development," emphasizing the innovation and efficiency of this product.
