[Blog] Securing the Future: OCP 2025 Recap

Each year, the Open Compute Project (OCP) Global Summit brings together the tech industry’s most innovative thinkers to discuss the current and future state of open hardware and software solutions. This year, Lattice and our ecosystem partners had the opportunity to showcase a range of our Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA)-based solutions that help enable OCP-compliant development of datacenters, artificial intelligence (AI) solutions, and more.

In case you missed the show, here’s a recap of what Lattice showcased at the 2025 OCP Summit:

Lattice Launches Industry-First PQC-Ready FPGA Family

During the Summit, Lattice launched the MachXO5™-NX TDQ family, the industry’s first secure control FPGAs with full Commercial National Security Algorithm (CNSA) 2.0-compliant post-quantum cryptography (PQC) support.

Built on the award-winning Lattice Nexus™ platform, MachXO5-NX TDQ FPGAs deliver unmatched security, reliability, and flexibility to support Computing, Communications, Industrial, and Automotive applications amid the growing threat of quantum-enabled cyberattacks.

The MachXO5-NX TDQ FPGA family equips customers with:

• A full suite of CNSA 2.0-compliant pre- and post-quantum cryptography algorithms and encrypted bitstream solutions.
• Advanced symmetric and classical asymmetric cryptographic algorithms.
• Hardware Root of Trust (HRoT) capabilities to support trusted single-chip secure boot.

Lattice Showcases AI Datacenter & Future-Ready Solutions
At its booth, the Lattice team provided live demonstrations of solutions built for the future of secure and high-performance AI infrastructure. These included:

Future-ready Security Capabilities:
The team highlighted support for CNSA 2.0-compliant PQC, QRNG pairing with FPGA, and Firmware Trusted Platform Module (fTPM).

Lattice PQC Solution for Lattice MachXO5™-NX 55TDQ and PFR Demo
Robust post-quantum cryptography (PQC) support compliant with CNSA 2.0 and NIST standards, including ML-KEM and ML-DSA algorithms.

SEC-TPM with Lattice MachXO5™-NX
A single-chip Root of Trust solution built on the Lattice MachXO5™-NX FPGA, integrating traditional TPM functionality with post-quantum cryptography (PQC) and Platform Firmware Resilience (PFR).

Intelligent Connectivity & Control: The team demonstrated high I/O control devices, LTPI (LVDS Tunneling Protocol and Interface) support, and DC-SCM (Datacenter Secure Control Module) adherence.

Dual HPM Single SCM LTPI Demo
A high-performance LTPI setup using a single System Control Module (SCM) connected to two Host Processor Modules (HPMs) demonstrating efficient aggregation of low-speed signals—GPIO, UART, and I2C—from the SCM to both HPMs, with real-time link status monitoring and environmental sensing.

Seamless Onboarding LTPI Demo
Lattice’s seamless Plug and Play setup for Host Processor Module (HPM) endpoints using JSON-based onboarding, highlighting how LTPI bridges hardware differences between HPM and DC-SCM modules by combining I2C, UART, and GPIO into a unified high-speed interface.

The team also had the chance to host multiple engineering workshops to discuss how Lattice low power FPGAs enable scalable innovation across demanding datacenter and edge environments. The sessions included: 

Quantum Resilient Security for Datacenters: A QRNG RoT FPGA Framework with Live Demonstration
This presentation explored how verifiable quantum randomness—generated independently of deterministic processes—can enhance trust in cryptographic operations such as key generation, secure boot, and attestation.

5G Small Cell: The Next Wave of Ubiquitous Connectivity for Smart and Secure Cities
5G ORAN small cells now support satellite connectivity via 3GPP Release 17, expanding coverage to remote, airborne, and maritime environments. This presentation outlines key design and implementation considerations for 5G NTN-enabled small cells.

Streaming and Flash-less Boot System: A Detailed Methodology for Secure and Authenticated Firmware Updates
This presentation shares challenges and proposes solutions for OCP’s flash-less boot initiative, including dual-stage firmware delivery and recovery mechanisms.

We had a great time showcasing our latest and greatest FPGA solutions at this year’s OCP Summit, and we’re already looking forward to building on this experience to make next year’s show bigger and better!
