Minneapolis MN (SPX) Mar 15, 2005 MathStar has been selected by Honeywell to provide Field Programmable Object Array (FPOA) technology that will be incorporated into Honeywell semiconductors for satellites in military space systems. "Honeywell and MathStar have identified a technology that provides high performance, low development risk and rapid time to market reconfigurable silicon for high-speed signal processing in military applications in space," said Dean Westman, MathStar Vice President. The commercial version of the MathStar FPOA family offers a combination of a deterministic clock (up to 1 Ghz) and off-the shelf programmability. Honeywell will adapt the technology for the unique requirements of space and use it in space digital processing systems. The high-performance FPOA chips based on MathStar's proprietary Silicon Object technology are designed for use in a wide variety of high performance networking and digital signal processing applications. FPOAs offer a new solution to companies faced with the high development cost of application specific integrated circuits (ASICs) and the performance limitations of conventional FPGA architectures. Commercial versions of the FPOA are available now. Both versions of the chips are supported by a complete SystemC development tool suite that provides customers with an effective environment for development of their proprietary algorithms. The complete MathStar development platform, including design tools, board and parts is available now.
