About Trenz Electronic:
Trenz Electronic is a leading manufacturer of FPGA-based solutions, dedicated to delivering affordable and high-performance modules to meet the evolving needs of the electronics industry. All development and production take place at our own location in Germany.

About Gatemate FPGA Family:
The GateMate FPGA family addresses all application requirements of small to medium size FPGAs. Logic capacity, power consumption, package size and PCB compatibility are best in class and yet available at lowes cost of ownership. Cologne Chip AG hence drives FPGA usage towards many applications, which previously used discrete or software programmable solutions. All this is based on a novel FPGA architecture combining CPE programmable elements with a smart routing engine. The devices are manufactured using Globalfoundries™ 28 nm SLP (Super Low Power) process. Due to manufacturing in Europe, there is no danger of trade restrictions or high taxation.
