Key Features

• Programmable Logic — 1,100 logic elements for implementing custom control, signal processing, and interface logic.
• Embedded Memory — 65,536 bits (64 kbits) of on‑chip RAM for local data buffering and state storage.
• I/O and Peripherals — 12 programmable I/O pins and hardened interfaces within the iCE40 Ultra family, including SPI and I²C controllers for direct sensor and host connectivity.
• On‑chip Oscillators & Clocking — Integrated low‑frequency and high‑frequency oscillators for always‑on and active tasks, plus flexible global clock resources and one PLL per device as described for the family.
• LED / IR Drivers — Family includes RGB PWM outputs with user‑selectable sink currents and a high‑current IR LED sink for direct LED drive and IR applications.
• On‑chip DSP — DSP functional block options within the family for signed/unsigned 8‑ or 16‑bit operations (multiplier, accumulator, MAC) to offload preprocessing tasks.
• Low Power Process — Built on an ultra‑low power 40 nm process; family data shows very low standby currents for always‑on use cases.
• Package & Form Factor — 20‑WLCSP (1.71 × 2.06 mm) surface‑mount package for minimal PCB area and compact system integration.
• Voltage & Temperature — Supply voltage range 1.14 V to 1.26 V and rated operating temperature −40 °C to 100 °C for industrial environments.
• Regulatory Status — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Mobile and Handheld Devices — Sensor management, LED/IR control and low‑power companion logic in smartphones, tablets and consumer handhelds.
• Always‑On Sensor Modules — Low current standby and on‑chip oscillators enable efficient wake/sleep sensor monitoring and preprocessing.
• Multi‑Sensor Fusion — On‑chip DSP and embedded RAM support preprocessing and aggregation of sensor data before passing to a host processor.
• Industrial Handhelds and Commercial Devices — Compact WLCSP package and industrial temperature rating allow integration into space‑constrained, temperature‑variable products.

Unique Advantages

• Highly integrated peripheral set — Hardened SPI and I²C controllers, oscillators, LED/IR drivers and DSP blocks reduce external component count and simplify designs.
• Ultra‑small footprint — 20‑ball WLCSP (1.71 × 2.06 mm) package minimizes PCB area for dense, compact products.
• Low‑power architecture — 40 nm ultra‑low power process and family standby current figures support always‑on and battery‑sensitive applications.
• Industrial temperature range — Rated from −40 °C to 100 °C for reliable operation across a wide range of environments.
• On‑chip preprocessing capability — Embedded RAM and DSP functions enable local data handling that can reduce host processor load and system power.
• Reduced BOM and design complexity — Integrated drivers and interfaces allow direct connection to LEDs and sensors without separate driver components in many designs.
