The Platform Manager™ product family represents the
third-generation of mixed-signal devices available from Lattice. Programmable Platform Manager devices simplify board management design significantly by integrating programmable analog and logic to support many common functions, such as power management, digital housekeeping and glue logic. By integrating these support functions, Platform Manager devices not only reduce the cost of these functions compared to traditional approaches, but also improve system reliability and provide a high degree of design flexibility that minimizes the risk of circuit board re-spins.
