The GateMate FPGA series by Cologne Chip is designed for small to medium-scale FPGA applications, offering exceptional logic capacity, energy efficiency, and compact packaging. Manufactured using GlobalFoundries' 28nm Super Low Power process, these FPGAs ensure high performance at a lower cost, making them suitable for various applications from university labs to large-scale production. This FPGA integrates CPE programmable elements alongside a clever routing engine, enabling efficient multiplier constructions and memory-intensive applications through block RAMs.
Supporting 20,480 programmable elements, GateMate FPGAs feature flexible General Purpose IOs that handle a range of voltage levels and configuration options, including LVDS differential pairs. High-speed communications benefit from an available SerDes interface, while synthesis and bitstream generation involve the Yosys framework and Cologne Chip's P&R software. These FPGAs minimize the risk associated with supply chain disruptions thanks to their European manufacturing.
Designed with an emphasis on low power consumption, GateMate supports multiple operation modes like low power, economy, and speed, accommodating different application requirements. Its versatility ensures it is a robust choice for new technological solutions across industry verticals.
