ALISO VIEJO, Calif., 21 May 2014. Microsemi Corp. in Aliso Viejo, Calif., is introducing military-grade versions of the company's SmartFusion2 SoC and IGLOO2 field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) for tactical missiles, unattended ground sensors, high-altitude avionics sensors, and other aerospace and defense applications.

The military-quality parts operate in temperatures from -55 to 125 degrees Celsius, and offer low power operations, as well as security, high reliability. The devices have high-speed serial I/O, embedded DSP and memory, with built-in security and anti-tamper capabilities.

The parts enable defense and aerospace developers to capitalize on SmartFusion2 and IGLOO2 in data-centric communications and net-centric capabilities that are projected to drive the military communications market to reach $30 billion by 2022, analysts say.

Microsemi's military-temperature tested SmartFusion2 SoC FPGAs and IGLOO2 FPGAs are sampling with full production expected this fall. For more information contact Microsemi online at www.microsemi.com.
