SAN JOSE, California, August 11, 2020 / PRNewswire / – QuickLogic Corporation (NASDAQ: QUIK), a developer of ultra-low-power voice responses from SoC, incorporated IP FPGA and Endpoint AI responses, announced that it has joined CHIPS Alliance, the leading consortium that advances non-unusual and open hardware for interfaces, processors, and systems.

“In recent years, the electronics industry has undergone a major shift toward open hardware and software, and we are proud to be one of the leading corporations in this move,” said Brian Faith, president and CEO of QuickLogic. We have already worked hard with several MEMBERS of CHIPS Alliance to make FPGA teams and devices more accessible, and we look forward to continuing those efforts as an official member of the organization.”

QuickLogic recently announced the QuickLogic Open Reconfigurable Computing (QORC) initiative to expand access to open FPGA generation for integrated formula developers. QuickLogic’s first open source progression tools, developed in collaboration with Google and Antmicro CHIPS Alliance members, come with QuickLogic’s EOS S3 voice processing MCU and energy sensors with a built-in FPGA (eFPGA), and its PolarPro 3E FPGA family.

In addition, QuickLogic and Antmicro have introduced the first Arm (R) Cortex (R) M4 MCU – eFPGA SoC, QuickFeather ™ fully open source progression kit. Antmicro has added the QuickFeather progression kit to the Zephyr Real-Time Operating System (RTOS), as well as its Renode open source simulation framework. This small format progression map is ideal for low-energy IoT (ML) devices.

“The CHIPS Alliance continues to expand its club base with organizations in a diverse set of industries,” said Dr. Zvonimir Bandio, president of CHIPS Alliance. “QuickLogic, a leader in open source IP equipment and FPGA eFPGA, will help us drive innovation in the FPGA industry and continue our project to remove barriers to open hardware design.

QuickLogic’s Brian Faith will provide “Open Source FPGA Tools, Our Journey from Resistance to Adoption” at the CHIPS Alliance workshop, which will be held on Thursday, September 17.
