Overview
Lattice Semiconductor Corporation is a semiconductor company that develops and sells programmable-logic devices, related silicon products, system solutions, design services, and technology licenses. Its business is centered on low-power, small- and mid-range FPGAs and supporting platforms used for control, connectivity, processing, security, and edge applications across communications, computing, industrial, automotive, and consumer markets.[1][2][3][4]
The company states that its mission is to solve customer problems “from the Edge to the Cloud” and help create a “smart, secure, and connected world.” Founded in Oregon in 1983, Lattice is headquartered in Portland and maintains international operations and sales coverage.[5][6][7][8][9]
For fiscal 2025, revenue was $523.3 million. Customers in Asia accounted for 68% of revenue, the Americas 19%, and Europe 13%.[10][11] [1][2][3][4][10][11][5][6][7][8][9][5][6][7][8][9]
Products & services
Lattice Semiconductor’s product portfolio centers on programmable logic devices (PLDs), including field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) and control-oriented devices. Its Nexus platform uses 28nm FD-SOI technology and includes small FPGAs typically reaching up to 200K lookup tables (LUTs). Products include CrossLink-NX and CrossLinkU-NX for video connectivity, with the latter adding integrated USB-device functionality; Certus-NX and CertusPro-NX for general-purpose applications, with features such as high I/O density, PCIe, Gigabit Ethernet and, in CertusPro-NX, LPDDR4 memory support; and MachXO5 variants for control and security, with features including integrated flash, hardware root of trust and secure remote updates. The MachXO5-NX TDQ supports CNSA 2.0-compliant post-quantum cryptography. The Nexus 2 generation includes Certus-N2 for connectivity, secure bridging, system expansion and AI-enablement applications.[12][3]
The mid-range Avant platform is based on 16nm FinFET technology and spans approximately 150K to more than 600K system logic cells. Avant-E is designed for edge data processing and AI; Avant-G is a general-purpose device with capabilities including up to 12.5G SERDES, external-memory support and encryption/authentication; and Avant-X supports 25G SERDES, including 25G Ethernet and PCIe 4.0. Other established product families include MachXO devices for control, bridging and instant-on logic; CrossLink and CrossLinkPlus for video bridging; ECP FPGAs for compact, low-power designs; and iCE/iCE40 UltraPlus devices for ultra-low-power applications, including IoT-edge and AI uses.[4][13]
Product enablement includes IP cores, reference designs, development kits and design software, notably Radiant for FPGA design and Propel for embedded-processor-based designs. Lattice also offers solution stacks for industrial automation and robotics (Automate), embedded vision (mVision), edge AI (sensAI), hardware security (Sentry), automotive (Drive) and O-RAN applications, as well as Glance by Mirametrix edge-AI and computer-vision software. Additional offerings include standard-IP and IP-core licensing, patent monetization, and customer-specific IP and design services.[14][15][16][17][18] Company filings do not disclose revenue percentages by individual product family.[19][20] [12][3][4][13][14][15][19][20][16][17][18]
Geographic presence
Lattice Semiconductor’s sales are heavily weighted toward Asia. In the first half of fiscal 2026, Asia represented 79% of revenue, including Greater China at 66%, Malaysia at 9%, Japan at 2% and other Asia at 2%; the Americas accounted for 11% and Europe 10%. Revenue is attributed by customer ship-to location, and the Greater China category includes Hong Kong and mainland China.[21][22] For full-year fiscal 2025, Asia represented 68% of revenue, the Americas 19% and Europe 13%.[11]
The company’s reported R&D and operating locations include Hillsboro, Oregon; San Jose, California; Montreal, Canada; Shanghai, China; Metro Manila, Philippines; Pune, India; and Penang, Malaysia. Hillsboro is the corporate headquarters; facilities in several of these locations support R&D, engineering, operations, administration or sales.[23][24][25] Lattice follows a fabless manufacturing model, using wafer foundries in Japan, Korea and Taiwan, and packaging and test providers in Malaysia, Taiwan and Japan.[26] [21][22][11][23][24][25][26]
Business segments
Lattice Semiconductor reports one operating and reportable segment: its “core Lattice business,” which includes silicon-based and silicon-enabling products, evaluation boards and development hardware, and related intellectual-property licensing, services, and sales. The company does not report separate segment revenue contributions, so a percentage split by reportable segment is not applicable.[27][28]
The company also presents revenue by end market, a separate categorization rather than a segment breakdown. For fiscal 2025, Communications and Computing contributed approximately 55.9% of revenue ($292.716 million), Industrial and Automotive 37.1% ($193.965 million), and Consumer 7.0% ($36.581 million). These percentages are calculated from reported end-market revenue and total revenue; the company notes that end-market assignments may involve judgment.[29][30][31] [27][28][29][29][29][29][29][29][30][31]
Company history
Founded in 1983, Lattice Semiconductor introduced its Generic Array Logic (GAL) device in 1985, described by the company as the first electrically erasable programmable logic device. Its shares began trading on Nasdaq following an IPO in 1989.[5][7]
The company expanded through acquisitions, including Vantis in 1999 and Silicon Image in 2015. Silicon Image’s connectivity technologies and intellectual property became part of Lattice following the acquisition’s completion on March 10, 2015.[7][32][33]
Lattice introduced its Nexus small-FPGA platform in 2019 and its Avant mid-range FPGA platform in 2022, marking successive expansions of its programmable-logic product portfolio. In 2024, Ford Tamer was appointed CEO after Jim Anderson stepped down and Esam Elashmawi served as interim CEO.[12][34][35][36] [32][33][12][5][7][34][35][36]
