Secure FPGAs and SoC FPGAs

Advanced and Programmable FPGAs With Embedded Security


PolarFire® FPGAs and PolarFire SoC FPGAs represent the industry's most advanced secure programmable FPGAs built with layers of security in hardware, design and data. All PolarFire, PolarFire SoC and RT PolarFire FPGAs embed design security features. Additionally, certain data security-enabled devices allow you to design with the embedded Athena F5200B crypto-coprocessor and include a Rambus CRI countermeasure patent portfolio indemnification, allowing you to design high-speed side-channel resistant cryptographic functionality in the FPGA fabric or on embedded processors.

Programmable Security for Low-Power Edge Compute Applications


Securing the edge requires robust security. The PolarFire family of FPGAs and SoC FPGAs is built upon the three fundamental security principles of confidentiality, integrity and authenticity. We offer a cryptographically secured supply chain, side-channel-resistant crypto accelerators, state-of-the-art Physically Unclonable Function (PUF)-based key storage and industry-leading anti-tamper features to protect your design and enable you to deploy edge applications securely.
