SAN JOSE, Calif., March 11, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- QuickLogic
Corporation (NASDAQ: QUIK), a developer of ultra-low-power
multicore voice-enabled system-on-chips (SoCs), embedded FPGA
(eFPGA), intellectual property (IP), Internet of Things (IoT), and
endpoint artificial intelligence (AI) solutions, today announced
that its ArcticPro™ 2 eFPGA IP has been qualified on
GLOBALFOUNDRIES® (GF®) 22FDX®
platform.
With this qualification, companies designing SoCs on GF's 22FDX
platform can easily integrate QuickLogic's ArcticPro 2 eFPGA
knowing it has been through GF's comprehensive IP qualification
process.
Integrating eFPGA technology enables SoC developers to add
post-manufacturing design flexibility to address emerging standards
and specifications, add new product features, tailor SoC to
specific submarkets or adjacent markets, or meet competitive
challenges. The inherently ultra-low power consumption of the
technology makes it suitable for a wide range of applications,
including power-sensitive, portable, handheld, or wearable devices
and other IoT endpoints.
"Being fully qualified on GLOBALFOUNDRIES 22FDX platform shows
that our eFPGA implementation is very low risk for SoC
implementation," said Brian Faith,
QuickLogic's president and CEO. "Both QuickLogic and
GLOBALFOUNDRIES have completed the necessary verification needed so
that customers can seamlessly integrate into their SoCs."
"With its high performance and low power capabilities, our 22FDX
platform empowers our clients to create winning products for the
markets they serve," said Ed Kaste,
vice president of Industrial and Multi-market Business at
GLOBALFOUNDRIES. "The qualification of QuickLogic's eFPGA IP
further differentiates our 22FDX platform to enable our mutual
clients to create specialized application solutions for edge AI and
IoT applications."
ArcticPro 2 eFPGA IP on GF's 22FDX platform is available
now. Accompanying the IP is a range of tools and development
systems that can be used for everything from benchmarking power,
performance and area of the IP, all the way to doing system-level
development in conjunction with a RISC-V-based SoC.
These include:
- ETH Arnold RISC-V-based SoC and development board
- QuickLogic's 22FDX test chip and validation board
- QuickLogic's proprietary Aurora Software Tool Suite
