Lattice Semiconductor introduces the latest version of its suite of design tools

Lattice Semiconductor, a leading provider of customized intelligent interconnect solutions to the market, announced the availability of the latest versions of Lattice Diamond, iCEcube2 and ispLEVERClassic design tool suites. This upgrade to a wide range of design tools reaffirms Lattice Semiconductor's commitment to providing customers with industry-leading low power, small size and low cost FPgas.

Mike Kendrick, Director of Software Marketing at Lattice, said: "Lattice continues to push the boundaries and remain a leader in FPGA design. This update ensures that users have access to the latest suite of software design tools to stay at the forefront of innovation in a changing design landscape."

Lattice Diamond version 3.5

Lattice Diamond Design software is a complete set of FPGA design tools with an easy-to-use interface, efficient design flow, and excellent design exploration. This update enables users to support ECP5 FPgas with a standard license. The Lattice Diamond free license supports ECP5U devices without SERDES, and the Lattice Diamond subscription license supports ECP5UM devices with SERDES. In addition, data upgrades for the ECP5 product family provide users with increased performance.

Lattice Integrated Engine (LSE), included in Lattice's LatticeDiamond design tool suite, The ECP5, LatticeECP3, LatticeECP2, LatticeECP2M, LatticeXP2, MachXO3L, MachXO2, and MachXO FPGA product families are now supported. Users can now choose from comprehensive tools to achieve the highest possible performance and lowest power consumption in a wide range of device designs.

ICEcube2 Version 2015.04

iCEcube2 design software provides users with easy-to-use design tools to meet the requirements for cost, power consumption and time to market. iCEcube2 Version 2015.04 supports iCE40 Ultra™ and iCE40 UltraLite™ devices under a standard license, making it easier and faster for manufacturers of mobile consumer electronics and industrial handheld devices to achieve critical product differentiation features.

IspLEVER Classic version 2.0

The upgrade to ispLEVERClassic software provides a comprehensive tool choice for users of the LatticeispMach 4000 CPLD. Lattice Integrated Engine (LSE) is now included in the suite along with SynopsysSynplifyPro integrated tools. Users can easily switch the integrated tools while implementing the design, achieving the highest performance and lowest power consumption possible.
