Discover FPAAs

Analog Hardware That Can Be Reconfigured in Software

Traditional analog circuitry is fixed. FPAA technology changes that.

Watch how Field Programmable Analog Arrays enable engineers to build adaptive analog systems without constantly redesigning hardware.

What Is an FPAA?

An FPAA (Field Programmable Analog Array) is a reconfigurable analog integrated circuit that enables analog functions to be programmed and updated similarly to how FPGAs configure digital logic.

Instead of designing and respinning fixed-function analog hardware for every iteration, engineers can:

  • Reconfigure analog signal paths
  • Modify filters and gain stages in software
  • Prototype analog systems rapidly
  • Adapt hardware behavior dynamically
  • Reduce analog redesign cycles

This creates new opportunities in embedded systems, sensing, instrumentation, robotics, industrial electronics, defense systems, education, and research.

OTC2902K SoC FPAA

Okika’s OTCK290K system-on-chip Field Programmable Analog Array gives engineers architectural control over the analog signal chain through a highly reconfigurable mixed-signal platform. Built on a 350 nm CMOS process, it combines programmable analog fabric, digital resources, and an integrated 16-bit MSP430 microcontroller in a single device.

Its Manhattan FPAA architecture supports complex analog routing, adaptive control, calibration, and rapid signal-chain iteration without repeated PCB redesigns. Engineers can refine filters, gain stages, and front-end architectures directly through configuration before committing to fixed-function hardware.

Introducing Chameleon

Chameleon™ is a self-contained programmable analog subsystem built around Okika’s FPAA technology.

Each 14 × 11 mm LGA-32 module integrates the analog fabric, nonvolatile configuration memory, precision oscillator, and reconfiguration circuitry into a single package. No external microcontroller is required for operation. Once configured, it behaves as a dedicated analog device.

For DesignCon engineers evaluating front-end architectures, Chameleon allows filters, gain stages, and signal conditioning paths to be implemented and revised without redesigning the board. The module can be reprogrammed in-system through a standard 3.3 V SPI interface, enabling controlled iteration during development or updates after deployment.

Instead of locking analog behavior into fixed components, Chameleon keeps the signal path adjustable while maintaining a compact hardware footprint.
