The LatticeECP2 family is the optimal FPGA architecture for modern video systems.

We selected the Lattice ECP2M family because it provided us with the optimal mix of high-speed performance, logic density and distributed memory. Lattice has also provided us great support with design tools and IP that have allowed us to decrease our time to market.

The LatticeSC should finally silence the skeptics: this is a very high performance FPGA that will compete aggressively with Virtex and Stratix devices for sockets. With the simultaneous announcement of the low cost LatticeECP2 devices, Lattice now has the breadth and depth of FPGA products to become the third force in the FPGA market.
