Lattice Semiconductor Launches iCE40 Ultra™ Platform for Wearable Device Development
Feature Rich, Low-Power Platform in Compact Wrist Watch Form Factor Supports Multiple Wearable Applications
- iCE40 Ultra FPGA featured in platform is 60 percent smaller than alternative microcontrollers
- Broad range of hardware features make platform a fit for almost any consumer wearable device
- Platform comes with user guide and demos to help expedite device design
The iCE40 Ultra FPGA uses a package that is 60 percent smaller than alternative microcontrollers. The iCE40 Ultra FPGA also supports a low power standby mode for always-on functionality, making it an ideal choice for consumer wearables that need to operate for days between charges.
Hardware features and sensors supported by the iCE40 Ultra Wearable Development Platform include a 1.54-inch display, MEMS microphone, high-brightness LED, IR LED, BLE module and 32MB of flash memory. The platform also supports sensors capable of measuring heart rate/SpO2, skin temperature, and pressure as well as an accelerometer and gyroscope. The platform comes in a wrist watch form factor (1.5-inches wide x 1.57-inches long x 0.87-inches high) with a wrist strap and a built in battery.
“One of the more popular applications to emerge from the growing
Included with the platform are a detailed user guide and several demos to showcase parallel RGB to MIPI DSI bridging, health monitor, pedometer, IR transmitter or flashlight functions.
The iCE40 Ultra Wearable Development Platform is available now direct
