MX FPGAs

MX Family of Antifuse FPGAs

Featuring low power and design security, MX FPGAs offer a reliable, single-chip ASIC alternative. MX devices provide high performance while shortening the system design and development cycle. Offering an efficient, flexible 5.0V architecture, MX FPGAs are ideal high-volume platforms for integrating your legacy PLDs into a single device.

Key Benefits

Low power consumption
Ability to be live at power-up
High-performance mixed-voltage solution
PCI compliance
Embedded dual-port SRAM modules
Availability in military and automotive temperature grades
