Driving Exceptional User Experiences In Next Generation Tablets

Related Products

Tablet architecture continues to evolve, adding more sensors, improving quality of existing sensors and displays which drive better user experience with crisp imagery and perfect details. In addition, device manufacturers are racing toward lower power consumption and slim size devices. Lattice FPGAs provide the bridging and distributed processing capabilities to elevate some of the challenges designer are facing on the road to innovative form factors with ultra slim designs.

Lattice’s solutions running on optimized low power FPGAs provide:

  • Flexible and low latency sensor data aggregation, bridging, data buffering and processing from a wide variety of sensors
  • MIPI CSI and DSI image sensor and display bridging
  • New form factors by improving board to board connectivity
