To meet higher bandwidth requirements, designers are increasingly turning to FPGAs with SERDES to incorporate serial I/O interfaces into their designs. Until now, FPGAs that included high speed SERDES blocks were relatively high-priced. The new LatticeECP2M family brings SERDES to low-cost FPGAs by adding 4 to 16 channels of 3.125Gbps SERDES to a LUT4-based FPGA fabric. Developed on 90nm CMOS utilizing 300mm wafers, the LatticeECP2M FPGA is ideal for cost-conscious applications such as high volume communications, consumer, automotive, video and industrial equipment.
Attend this NetSeminar and learn how to design with a SERDES-based FPGA solution that is:
* Low cost vs. other SERDES-enabled FPGAs
* High Performance
* Full-featured with DDR2 support and DSP
* Very high RAM capacity
