Actel has added its ProASICPLUS FPGAs in extended automotive temperature range versions to its successful line of automotive solutions.
The addition of its reprogrammable, single-chip ProASICPLUS FPGAs rounds out Actel's automotive FPGA product portfolio with densities up to 1-million system gates. Actel's ProASICPLUS automotive devices are optimised for telematics and other in-cab applications that require flexible, high-reliability solutions, including navigation, speech recognition, passenger control and comfort systems, intelligent occupant sensors and heads-up displays. Further, their tamper-resistant nature makes this automotive line a suitable platform for developing occupant safety systems, electronic engine control modules for camless engine control units (ECUs) and other under-the-hood powertrain management systems.
Actel's ProASICPLUS FPGAs have already been used in automotive applications. Life Racing used an APA450 device to enable high flexibility and performance in an automotive ECU. With in-system programmability, Life Racing was able to replace off-the-shelf Time Processor Unit controllers with a single FPGA, reducing component count, saving board area and minimising debug requirements. Overall, implementing a flexible hardware solution enabled Life Racing to shorten software development time and speed overall time to market. The ProASICPLUS automotive solutions are supported by a comprehensive portfolio of IP cores specifically designed and optimised for in-cab and under-the-hood automotive applications, including LIN, CAN, SPI, 8051, Z80, 6809, Reed Solomon and DES/3DES/AES.
