FPGA Design Services
Our Expertise with Lattice Products
We offer you the fastest time to market using Lattice programmable logic devices and solution stacks in your FPGA design projects.
General purpose and optimized low-power FPGAs
We have experience working with the following products: Certus-NX, ECP5, Lattice ECP3, LatticeECP2/M, and LatticeXP2. All of them allow a broad range of applications. For video bridging and processing, we use CrossLink-NX, CrossLinkPlus, and CrossLink. Besides, we can work with the ultra-low-power ML/AI iCE40 UltraPlus, iCE40 Ultra / UltraLite, and iCE40 LP/HX/LM for rapid customization of mobile products. On top of that, we can ingrate Lattice control & security solutions: Mach-NX, MachXO3, MachXO3D, MachXO2, MachXO, and ispMACH 4000ZE.

Our Lattice-based projects

Bootloader development for the NX FPGA family
Tags: Lattice, RISC-V, bootloader, FPGA, Certus-NX, Сrosslink-NX
Development of a bootloader for the Lattice NX FPGA family with support for external QSPI flash memory. The project included hardware validation on dev boards based on Crosslink-NX and Сertus-NX. The SDRAM IP core can be adapted to the NX architecture and used with the RISC-V synthesizable core. Â

Hybrid video capturing and processing device
Tags: Lattice, ECP5, HDMI, MIPI, H.265
Video stream capturing, h.265 compression, and streaming to the Internet. Lattice ECP5 used for video preprocessing and i.MX8 based SoM for compression, streaming, and user logic.

X-Ray sensors module
Tags: Lattice, ECP5, CMOS
A small PCB module with 2xCMOS sensors and Lattice ECP5 FPGA for control and image processing.Â
Â

Simple L2 switch IP core
Tags: Lattice, Ethernet
A single physical Ethernet port shared between the embedded CPU and MCU SoM. The stream is routed on the base of the device’s MAC addresses.

Video decoding and output to TFT panel
Tags: Lattice, H.264, H.265 MIPI, Display
A video TS stream decoded by an iMX8 SoM module. Transmitted to Lattice FPGA using MIPI CSI-2 interface and displayed on the TFT panel.

Image processing on ECP5
Tags: Lattice, Image Processing, HyperRam, Display
A video stream captured from HDMI interface. Then a chain of image processing operations takes place: white balance and gamma correction, cropping, scaling, and rotation. Finally, video displays on the TFT panel.

X-Ray imaging system
Tags: Lattice, CMOS, Xilinx, 1G
A complete device has been designed for image capturing from 80 X-Ray CMOS sensors. Image captured and pre-processed by Lattice MACHXO3 FPGA, downstream to ARTIX7 motherboard as daisy-chain. FW update and other control operations mediated by external MCU.
Application areas
Using Lattice products in your projects opens up significant opportunities in several markets at once. Those are datacom and edge computing, industrial management & automation, automotive & transportation, and consumer devices. Explore the possible application areas.









Deploy your Edge AI solution with Lattice senseAI
senseAI stack
We’ve covered the Lattice senseAI solution stack application for designing custom FPGA platforms in our recent press release. We have observed an increase in the number of so-called on-edge AI projects in which the client needs to implement AI/ML on small-scale and low-power hardware platforms.


"Typical microcontrollers lack the performance needed for the Edge AI applications, while more advanced solutions like NVidia Jetson are beyond the allotted power budget. Thanks to low-power FPGA, image processing support and sensor-agnostic AI inferencing, the senseAI platform by Lattice is an attractive choice for many low-power Edge AI systems."
