Enhanced design security
Only CoolRunner-II CPLDs provide an unprecedented four levels of design security that guard against pattern theft.
- Designs can be secured during programming to prevent either overwriting or pattern theft via readback
- Electrical or visual detection of configuration patterns is eliminated with four new levels of on-chip security
- Electrical or laser tampering causes the device to automatically lock down
- Protection is buried deeply within the device making it virtually undetectable
