New FPGAs and SoCs feature small thermal footprints and low power consumption

Oct. 1, 2021
The newest silicon in the PolarFire series boasts appreciable upgrades.

PolarFire mid-bandwidth field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) and system-on-chips (SoCs) have smaller thermal footprints and half the static power consumption as previous devices in the line.

The MPF050T FPGA and MPFS025T SoC feature fast FPGA fabric and signal processing capabilities, and hardened application-class RISC-V architecture-based processor complexes with 2 MB of L2 cache and Low-Power DDR4 (LPDDR4) memory support.  

According to the manufacturer, the devices are ideal for low-power smart embedded vision applications, and thermally constrained automotive, communications, defense, industrial automation, and IoT systems.

Volume shipment is expected Q1 2022. Developers can design with the new FPGA and SoC using Microchip’s Libero 2021.2 software tools, available on the company website.
