HILLSBORO, OR - SEPTEMBER 24, 2008 - Lattice Semiconductor (NASDAQ: LSCC) today announced that Sean Riley has joined the company as Corporate Vice President and General Manager of High Density Solutions. Concurrently, Chris Fanning has been promoted to Corporate Vice President and General Manager of Low Density and Mixed Signal Solutions.
Sean Riley was previously Vice President of Marketing for programmable logic company MathStar, Inc. and prior to that held a variety of senior management positions for Intel, most recently as Director of the Planning, Networking and Storage Group. Riley holds both a B.S. and M.S. in Electrical Engineering from Arizona State University. Chris Fanning most recently was Corporate Vice President, Enterprise Solutions, managing Lattice’s software, intellectual property and technical support businesses.

“I am extremely pleased that Sean has elected to join Lattice at this exciting point in our company’s history,” said Bruno Guilmart, Lattice President and CEO. “Sean’s extensive background in programmable logic and the semiconductor industry, as well as in Ethernet, video and storage technologies, will be an enormous asset to Lattice as we move forward. I am equally pleased that Chris Fanning has agreed to become General Manager of Low Density and Mixed Signal Solutions. Chris has established an exceptional record of achievement during his tenure with Lattice, and he is the right person to take on the challenges of managing this critically important part of our product portfolio.”
