  HILLSBORO, OR, Sep 14 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
Lattice Semiconductor Corporation (NASDAQ: LSCC) today announced that an
independent panel of judges has named the Lattice MachXO2(TM) PLD family
a finalist in Elektra 2011, the European Electronics Industry Awards
competition. The MachXO2 family is nominated in the "Digital
Semiconductor Product of the Year" category.

    "This highly coveted recognition from the Elektra 2011 judges is very
gratifying," said Doug Hunter, Lattice Vice President of Corporate
Marketing. "Our MachXO2 PLD family has been broadly adopted by customers
for use in both system and consumer applications. We recently announced
that the MachXO2 devices are now available in extremely small 2.5nm x
2.5nm WLCSP (wafer level chip scale packages), which enables them to
address consumer applications previously not accessible to PLDs." 

    Now in its ninth year and an established annual highpoint of the
electronics industry, the Elektra Awards give the industry the
opportunity to recognize the achievements of individuals and companies
across Europe. The winners will be announced at an Elektra Awards Dinner
and Christmas Party, which takes place on Wednesday, December 14 at the
Park Plaza, Westminster Bridge in London.

    About the Lattice MachXO2 PLD Family

    The MachXO2 devices provide designers of low density PLDs an
unprecedented mix of low cost, low power and high system integration in a
single device. Built on a low power 65-nm process featuring embedded
Flash technology, the MachXO2 family delivers a 3X increase in logic
density, a 10X increase in embedded memory, more than a 100X reduction in
static power to as low as 19uW and up to 30% lower cost compared to the
prior generation MachXO(TM) PLD family. These devices are ideal for
control PLD applications in end markets such as telecom infrastructure,
computing, high end industrial, high end medical, and low power
applications such as smart phones, GPS devices and digital cameras.
