GOWIN LittleBee® GW1NZ-1 FPGAs

GOWIN Semiconductor LittleBee^® GW1NZ-1 FPGAs provide an Always On, ultra-low power consumption at extremely low costs. The GW1NZ-1 FPGAs feature ultra-low power consumption, instant on, low cost, non-volatile, high security, various packages, and flexible usage. The non-volatile GW1NZ-1 FPGAs enable flexible usage with various packages.

The GOWIN Semiconductor GW1NZ-1 FPGAs are part of the LittleBee family of devices. LittleBee products are based on 55nm LP technology and offer instant-on, non-volatile, low-power, intensive I/O and a small footprint (the smallest is 2.4mm x 2.3mm). The LittleBee family is ideal for high-performance bridging applications and supports MIPI I³C and MIPI D-PHY as standard. This further reduces the board space and enhances performance.

The GW1NZ-1 FPGAs are widely used in communication, industrial control, and consumer (especially mobile and wearable) applications.
