Research abstract
Cswitch is planning to investigate the implementation of non volatile chalcogenide material as a replacement to the 10-50Mbits of SRAM used to configure the FPGA LUTs and switches. The Cswitch FPGA will as a result eliminate the triple redundancy required in RAD Tolerant FPGAs used for military and space applications. Cswitch's core technology team has spent roughly 9 months researching FPGAs and memory technologies.
