In 2025, the Lattice Avant™ 16nm FinFET platform became available.
Taking advantage of its know-how in terms of low cost and low power consumption, Lattice now enters the mid-range FPGA market with state-of-the-art silicon.

The Avant™ families offers a faster fabric and numerous high-speed transceivers channels (up to 28 channels at 25 Gbps for the largest Avant-X) that are reaching FPGA NRZ transceiver’s high boundary.

At ALSE we have a long history of working with practically all the FPGA vendors and families, and by consequence with all types of FPGA transceivers. We have developed many transceiver-based IPs including : HDMI, SDI, JESD204b, Gedek (100M/1G Ethernet), 10GEDEK (10G Ethernet), Aurora 8B/10B, and Aurora 64B/66B !

Therefore, having gained an early access to a brand new Lattice Avant-G Versa board, we could not resist to tryout this new FPGA family by porting our Aurora IPs on this platform.

In this Application Note we demonstrate a Reference Design based on our Aurora 8B/10B IP ported on the Lattice Avant families.

Note that our Aurora 64B/66B IP is also available on Avant™.
If all goes well you’ll see a demo running on the Lattice booth at Embedded World.
