"We are impressed with the PolarFire FPGA family, and in particular its transceiver performance/power specifications. This becomes critical to us when considering products requiring high SerDes port density at very high transceiver rates, for example high definition uncompressed digital video switching and multiplexing systems." - Microsemi Customer |

?Devices in the same package and family type are pin compatible |
PolarFire FPGAs offer various device offerings such as design security with transceivers, low power transceiver devices, data security with transceivers, and low power data security with transceiver devices. All PolarFire FPGAs are integrated with multi-protocol industry-leading low-power transceivers. Low power (L) devices provide up to 35% lower static power. Also, data security (S) devices have an integrated DPA safe crypto accelerator
Smallest Form Factor Solutions?
PolarFire FPGAs are available in the smallest form factors for mid-range density devices. For example, the MPF100 device is available in a 11x11 mm package. In addition,? PolarFire devices do not require external configuration memories that are typically required for SRAM based FPGAs.?
