FPGA allows product designers to freely rewrite logic. Since FPGAs do not need to use masks when writing circuit information, device manufacturers can significantly reduce development costs compared to when using ASICs. Domestic and foreign equipment manufacturers focus on this and have begun to adopt FPGAs.
In this context, many new technologies using the 28nm manufacturing process emerged in the FPGA industry in 2010. The United States is headed by Altera. The company released the most advanced core technology used in 28nm process FPGA products in February 2010. The new technologies released this time are "Embedded HardCopy Blocks", "Partial Reconfiguration" and "28 Gbit/sec Transceivers." Altra stated that with the popularity of mobile Internet, FibertotheHome, LTE/WiMAX, and cloud computing, the bandwidth required for communication infrastructure devices and terminals is rapidly increasing, and the cost and power consumption must be increased. We maintain the same level as the original. We have developed new technologies for the purpose of satisfying such requirements."
The reason FPGA vendors adopt new technologies for the 28-nm process is that if they rely only on the original miniaturization, they will not be able to meet the growing demand of customers.
Xilinx, the industry's "big brother," has also adopted new technology in its 28nm FPGA. In October 2010, the company disclosed the technology of stacking multiple FPGAs on a silicon transition board to form a single package, the "Stacked Silicon Interconnect." It is characterized by the introduction of new technologies such as silicon switching boards and TSVs in terms of packaging. The first products using this technology, the "Virtex-7LX2000T", integrate four 28nm-process FPGA chips in a single package and can achieve 2 million logic cells. It also comes with 36 10.3Gbit/sec transceivers. It is scheduled to be available in the second half of 2011. It will focus on next-generation communications equipment, medical equipment, and aerospace equipment.
Not only were the large vendors such as Xilinx and Altra attracted hot discussions in 2010 due to FPGAs. In November 2010, Achronix Semiconductor (Achronix Semiconductor) announced that it will use Intel's 22nm process to manufacture the company's new FPGA "Speedster22i", which surprised many in the semiconductor industry. It is estimated that this is Intel's first time manufacturing other companies' LSI. Achronix plans to grab ahead of Xilinx and Altra in cutting-edge micromachining applications by leveraging Intel's 22nm process.
Collaboration around the FPGA has also begun. Microsemi of the United States and Actel of the United States announced in October 2010 that the two parties had reached an agreement on the acquisition of Actel by Microsemi. The total purchase amounted to approximately US$430 million. Microsemi, a maker of mixed-signal ICs, will be able to propose comprehensive reference designs for applications such as aerospace and security by acquiring Actel's FPGA technology.
In the FPGA industry, Xilinx and Altella continue to dominate the game. The movement of Achronix and Microsemi, which are intended to challenge the two companies, will attract people’s attention.
