GateMate FPGA

The GateMate^TM FPGA family of Cologne Chip AG addresses all application requirements of small to medium size FPGAs. Very low power and speed applications are feasible. Logic capacity, power consumption, package size and PCB compatibility are best in class. GateMate^TM FPGAs combine these features with lowest cost in industry making the devices well suited from University projects to high volume applications. Because of the outstanding Circuit size/Cost ratio, even new applications now can use the benefits of FPGAs. Get here an overview of possible FPGA applications.
All this is based on a novel FPGA architecture combining a special logic element called Cologne Programmable Element (CPE) with a smart routing engine. Furthermore, arbitrary size Multipliers are usable. Memory aware applications can use block RAMs with bit widths of 1 to 80 bits. Even bit-wise enable is possible.

General Purpose IOs (GPIOs) can use different voltage levels from 1.2 to 2.5 Volt. GPIOs can be configured as single-ended or LVDS differential type. Furthermore a high speed SERDES interface is available.
GateMate^TM FPGAs are supported by EasyConvert^TM, that enables the transfer of existing FPGA designs without new synthesis. Worldclass P&R-software maps and implements the design into GateMate^TM FPGA.
A Static Timing Analysis (STA) is also performed and gives evidence about critical pathes and the overall performance of a design. The design can be easily simulated using Verilog netlist and SDF timing extraction.
The devices are manufactured using Globalfoundries^TM 28 nm SLP (Super Low Power) process. Due to manufacturing in Europe, there is no danger of trade restrictions or high taxation.
