• Expands Relationship with Huawei: Lattice's iCE40 LM FPGA was integrated into the new Huawei P8 flagship smartphone to enable optimal 4G reception. Huawei will continue to use Lattice’s low latency, tunable antenna controller in other devices incorporating its Kirin 930 chipset.
• ZTE Chooses Lattice: Lattice's iCE40 LM FPGA was integrated into the recently released ZTE Star 2 flagship smartphone to perform IR remote control, and sensor hub functions. ZTE was able to individually decide which functions to incorporate, targeting the features of each model, while simultaneously saving board space, cost and power, and improving reliability and performance.
• Partners with Google: Google ATAP selected Lattice's SiBEAM® as one of the partners to bring touchless gesture sensing to the next generation of smart devices. Based on SiBEAM’s millimeter-wave (mmWave) innovations, this technology enables rich hand gesture interactions with smart devices and small wearables, without the limitations of ever-shrinking screen sizes.
• Launches MachXO3LF™: Lattice launched the MachXO3LF™ device, the newest member of its MachXO3™ FPGA family, which provides essential bridging and I/O expansion functions to meet the increasing connectivity requirements of communications, computing, consumer and industrial markets. Customers now have multiple footprint compatible options: the MachXO3L device, which offers low-cost reprogrammable non-volatile configuration memory, and now the MachXO3LF device with on-chip Flash memory.
• Letv's Le Max Smartphone Win: Lattice's SiBEAM announced a key UltraGig™ design win with Letv’s Le Max smartphone. Featuring SiBEAM’s UltraGig SiI6400 transmitter, Le Max is the world’s first smartphone offering 60GHz millimeter-wave wireless video technology in volume production. The UltraGig SiI6400 transmitter is a single-chip solution that integrates network processor, RF transceiver, and in-package antennas, offering Full HD quality with near-zero latency for immersive entertainment and gaming.

Business Outlook - Third Quarter and Full Year 2015:

• Revenue for the third quarter of 2015 is expected to be approximately flat to up 6% on a non-GAAP basis, as compared to the second quarter of 2015, with revenue on a non-GAAP basis for the full year 2015 now expected to be approximately 10% below $485 million, which was the midpoint of prior guidance.
