And, this one from EETimes a big article.
"Actel, Vantis angle at new programmable-logic apps"
..."Actel Corp. and Vantis Corp. are introducing programmable-logic architectures that promise to open up new applications for the technology."
"With the release of its first ProASIC parts, Actel (Sunnyvale, Calif.) presents what it claims is one of the finest-grained architectures in programmable logic and a legitimate substitute for gate arrays in many designs. Vantis (Sunnyvale, Calif.), separately, has unveiled preliminary details of Godfather, a CPLD architecture targeting higher densities and wider logic than usual for such parts. Both products take advantage of high-end process technologies to realize some novel architectural structures."
"Part of the flood of products Actel plans to release this year, ProASIC uses a flash-based architecture developed by GateField Corp."
"The first ProASIC parts will be numbered A500K and range in size from roughly 5,000 to 50,000 logic "tiles." Conservatively, they would yield designs of 98,000 to 1.1 million system gates, said Timothy Colleran, senior director of marketing for Actel."...
