Why Platform Flash

Platform Flash configuration memory devices are part of a complete design solution for your system. They offer benefits such as:

Lowest cost per megabit configuration PROM

Smallest area per megabit
- Reduces configuration board space with the VO20 and the FS48 packages
One PROM family from 1-Mbit to 32-Mbit
- Simplifies manufacturing flow and reduces inventory cost
Provides for storage of up to 50% more bits, allowing the use of a smaller density, lower cost PROM

In-system programmability

Simplifies manufacturing flow and board test

Enables easy field upgrades

SelectMAP mode (PDF) decreases FPGA configuration time by bursting out bitstreams in 8-bit increments

Broad density range and flexibility

Increases effective PROM density in high density-range of devices
