Everspin and Lattice bring MRAM to FPGA platforms
Addressing the need for frequent, fast, and reliable FPGA configuration, Everspin Technologies has announced that its PERSYST MRAM is now validated for configuration across all Lattice Semiconductor FPGAs. It is enabled through the Lattice Radiant™ software suite
This validation highlights the role of MRAM as a robust and reliable configuration memory device for various applications in industries such as industrial, aerospace, military, and automotive.
The shift from traditional flash memory to MRAM in FPGA configuration reflects the growing demands of modern applications. Unlike NOR flash, which requires long program and erase time, MRAM offers high endurance, fast read/write speeds, and exceptional data retention. These attributes make it ideal for mission-critical environments, including real-time sensor processing, data logging in avionics, and in-orbit reprogramming for space systems.
“Our collaboration with Lattice Semiconductor reflects the growing demand for fast, reliable memory that addresses the needs of mission-critical systems,” said Sanjeev Aggarwal, President and CEO of Everspin Technologies. “When we designed the latest high-density PERSYST MRAM, including NOR interface support, we anticipated the need for frequent, fast, and reliable FPGA configuration. With multiple design engagements already underway, this partnership showcases how our technology delivers the performance and reliability required across diverse applications.”
PERSYST MRAM offers capacities up to 128 Mb, providing flexible configuration options. It exhibits high reliability and endurance in mission-critical environments and supports fast write speeds and low power consumption for efficient performance. Further, the technology has been proven with over 15 years of adoption in critical storage applications.
The PERSYST EMxxLX MRAM family is now available and shipping in industry-standard packages and interfaces
