QuickLogic Corporation has announced that it has joined the Open Source FPGA (OSFPGA) Foundation as a founding and Premier Member. The OSFPGA Foundation will bring together companies, universities and individuals working on or interested in advancing open source FPGA capabilities, establish cooperation channels, promote outreach and education, and coordinate joint efforts to enable easier collaboration in an open source FPGA ecosystem. As a Premier Member, QuickLogic will join the Board of Directors of the OSFPGA Foundation.

Brian Faith, President and CEO at QuickLogic said, “We are a perfect fit for OSFPGA as the vision of the Foundation is to accelerate worldwide awareness and widespread adoption of FPGA technology. We are the first FPGA company to openly embrace the open source FPGA movement and look forward to contributing to the OSFPGA Foundation and propelling the growth of this community.”

Multi-core semiconductor platforms

QuickLogic Corporation is a fabless semiconductor company that develops low power, multi-core semiconductor platforms, FPGAs and embedded FPGA (eFPGA) Intellectual Property (IP) for Artificial Intelligence (AI), voice and sensor processing. In 2020, the company announced the QuickLogic Open Reconfigurable Computing (QORC) Initiative, becoming the first FPGA company to openly and actively embrace 100 per cent open source FPGA tools.

Dr. Shrikant Lohokare, CEO at OSFPGA Foundation said, “We are pleased to have QuickLogic joining as Premier Member on the Board of Directors of OSFPGA Foundation and applaud its leadership in open source FPGA adoption and advancement. QuickLogic brings a wealth of experience as well as foresight in the rapidly evolving needs of the reconfigurable and adaptive computing markets, and the critical role open source FPGA technology is going to play in innovation and accelerated time-to-market. We are excited at the prospects of the collaborative contributions of our growing member base to advance this game changing initiative.”
