The Relevance to FPGA Vendors of an Analog Powerhouse
The simple thing for FPGA leaders like Xilinx and Altera to assume is that Texas Instruments Inc.’s $6.5 billion acquisition of National Semiconductor Corp., announced on April 4, will have next to no influence on the competitive landscape. If anything, it may make TI even less likely than before to pursue a quasi-FPGA design from products like the OMAP processor, since the TI-National combination will emphasize analog products.
