Altera has taken a licence from MIPS Technologies for the MIPS32 processor architecture. According to MIPS, it's the first time that its technology has been used in an fpga.
 Altera has offered a range of soft processors in the past, including ARM and Freescale cores, along with its NIOS core. But the MIPS architecture should allow it to offer a wider range of products to communications customers.
Art Swift, MIPS' vice president of marketing, pictured, said: "We are excited that Altera is employing the MIPS architecture to offer a wider range of solutions to designers. This license has the potential to broaden MIPS' user base, expand our already broad ecosystem and further proliferate the MIPS architecture."
