We are committed to protecting the environment and to reducing the consumption of natural resources.
Product Sustainability
We develop clean technology products that lead the industry in energy efficiency and small size.
Operational Excellence
We are committed to operational sustainability and excellence across Lattice sites worldwide.
Supply Chain Management
We work exclusively with industry-leading suppliers that have the highest quality and ESG standards.
Sustainability is built into our mission as the low power programmable leader. We have a long history of innovation and an on-going commitment to developing cleantech products that lead the industry in energy efficiency and small size.
Product Design
- We combine innovative circuit design with advanced process technology to create FPGAs that lead the industry in power efficiency and small package size. This can help our customers achieve lower energy consumption and more compact footprints with their designs.
- The programmability of our FPGAs leads to extended longevity, which means less waste is created over the lifetime of an FPGA compared to other types of semiconductors.
- We have delivered multiple generations and families of clean tech products since our founding in 1983 that help our customers reduce the power consumption of their devices and extend their products’ lifespans.
- Lattice products help our customers protect natural resources:
- Smart client compute devices that lower power consumption
- Solar panel control that maximizes the delivery of renewable energy
- Efficient motor control for industrial and automotive applications
- Lower power wireless base stations
- Smaller & lighter products that reduce packaging & transportation waste
- Lattice is committed to developing artificial intelligence solutions with ethical and fair considerations for a variety of factors, including gender, ethnicity, and age.
Lattice FPGAs consume up to 4X less power than competitive devices
Lattice FPGAs are up to 10X smaller than competitive FPGA packages
Could be powered based on the energy savings our customers gain by choosing Lattice FPGAs
We are committed to operational sustainability and excellence across Lattice sites worldwide and are constantly looking at new technologies and ways to further reduce our operational footprint while maximizing our quality of service.
Facilities Optimizations
- Maintain an extensive recycling program for paper, cardboard, and chemicals.
- Membership in the San Jose Clean Energy Program allows us to purchase clean power from wind, solar, and carbon.
- Buy 100% of our energy from renewable sources, where applicable.
- Actively monitoring our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and working to establish a baseline for future measurements.
- Ongoing upgrades to office facilities include:
- Energy friendly LED lighting and motion control system installation.
- Optimizing building performance by upgrading HVAC equipment.
- Increased on-site rapid-charging electric vehicle (EV) charging station capacity by 200% in 2020.
- Reduced water use by 30,000 gallons per day through appliance updates and by converting oven rooms to chilled water systems starting in 2016.
- Achieved total energy consumption reduction of 26% from 2020 to 2022 at Lattice headquarters in Hillsboro, Oregon.
- Completed 100% LED lighting upgrade projects in Bay Area office (2022) and Hillsboro office (2021)

We hold ourselves to high ESG standards and require our suppliers to have strong ESG programs as part of our qualification process. As a fabless semiconductor company, Lattice utilizes a subcontracted supply chain.
Commitment to High ESG Standards
- We select supply chain partners that are leaders in ESG, including those that prioritize energy and water conservation, and we commit to ensuring that these companies comply with all global standards and maintain appropriate certifications.
- We work exclusively with industry-leading suppliers. Our primary silicon foundry partners include: UMC, TSMC, and Samsung. Each of these silicon suppliers are leaders in the semiconductor industry as well as leaders in corporate responsibility.
- Our primary OSAT (Assembly & Test) partner is Advanced Semiconductor Engineering (ASE) with an industry leading ESG program.
Driving Consistent Compliance
- Ensuring Compliance with Global Standards/Certifications
- Lattice requires all our supply chain partners to maintain ISO14001 registrations, which certifies a company's commitment to preserving the natural environment.
- We have adopted industry-best practices that removed Lead (Pb) from solder compositions and converted plastic packages to Halogen-free formulations.
- We have worked with our OSATs to eliminate the use of conflict minerals from our products. We regularly publish a CMRT (Conflict Mineral Reporting Template) that documents all the mineral smelters used in our supply chain.
- We adhere to the European chemical standards of REACH and RoHS.
- Additional Activities to Ensure Compliance
- Lattice requires our primary supply chain partners to acknowledge and implement the principles within the RBA Code of Conduct. This code of conduct spells out the minimum requirements for workers’ rights, occupational safety, environmental impact, and business ethics.
- We work with our OSATs to reclaim minerals from ICs that are rejected during the manufacturing process.
- We perform Quarterly Business Reviews of our OSATs and annual audits of our Foundry suppliers.
- We hold ISO9001:2015 Quality Management System (QMS) certification and are pursuing ISO14001 Environmental Management System (EMS) certification in 2023.
