Lattice Semiconductor Corporation
LSCC · NASDAQTechnologySemiconductorsJanuary year-end
Lattice Semiconductor designs and sells low-power, small-form-factor programmable logic devices — primarily field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) — for communications, computing, consumer, and industrial applications. It generates revenue through direct sales of its semiconductor chips (roughly 90% of revenue) and licensing of its intellectual property portfolio. The company's competitive moat lies in its specialized focus on low-power FPGAs — a niche where it faces less direct competition from larger players like Xilinx and Intel — and its established design software ecosystem.
