It's "SmartFusion" :-) see http://www.actel.com/

It's a quite able chip, but I prefer the "old" Fusion devices,
I have the AFS600 on a kit and it kicks ass,
the AFS1500 is pure awesomeness (but damn expensive).
These are dream chips for robotics, I don't see what their
point is in a graphic card : they are expensive, not fast enough,
the analog part is useless and the integrated Flash storage can be
replaced
by a cheap external SPI memory...

Did I miss something ?
