• Embedded Memory – Approximately 80 Kbits of on-chip RAM for data buffering and small packet storage.
• Programmable I/O – Up to 95 I/O pins to support a wide range of external interfaces and peripherals.
• Low-Power L-Series Option – L-series low-power device characteristics and a listed typical static current of 26 μA at 0 kHz, 1.0 V (family data).
• Configuration and Security – On-chip Nonvolatile Configuration Memory (NVCM) plus support for self-configuration from external SPI serial Flash and processor-driven SPI-like downloads for flexible manufacturing and field updates.
• Performance – Family-level internal performance up to 256 MHz for many control and data-path applications.
• Power and Supply – Core supply voltage range specified as 1.14 V to 1.26 V to match low-power system rails.
• Package and Mounting – 132-VFBGA / CSPBGA (supplier package: 132-CSBGA 8×8) in a surface-mount form factor for compact PCB designs.
• Commercial Temperature Grade – Rated for 0 °C to 70 °C operation for commercial applications.
• RoHS Compliant – Conforms to RoHS requirements for lead-free manufacturing processes.
• Development Ecosystem – Supported by the family’s iCEcube development tools with VHDL/Verilog synthesis, place-and-route, and IP libraries (family documentation).

Typical Applications

• Handheld Devices – Low static and dynamic power characteristics and compact package make the device suitable for battery-powered handheld control and interface tasks.
• Embedded Control – Use as glue logic, state machines, or custom peripheral controllers where 3,520 logic elements and on-chip RAM meet mid-density needs.
• Processor Companion – Acts as a configurable peripheral fabric that can be programmed from a processor over an SPI-like serial interface for runtime updates and feature extensions.
• Portable Instrumentation – Provides programmable I/O and memory for data buffering, protocol adaptation, and custom signal handling in portable test equipment.

Unique Advantages

• Integrated Nonvolatile Configuration Memory: On-chip NVCM enables ASIC-like in-system programming and secure configuration storage without requiring external configuration-only devices.
• Low-Power Operation: L-series low-power characteristics and family-level microamp static currents reduce standby energy use in battery-operated designs.
• Flexible Configuration Options: Supports self-configuration from external SPI Flash or direct download from a host processor, enabling multiple production and field update workflows.
• Compact, Surface-Mount Package: 132-ball VFBGA/CSPBGA (132-CSBGA, 8×8) provides a small PCB footprint for space-constrained designs.
• Developer Tool Support: Family-level development tools (iCEcube) support VHDL and Verilog flows, easing integration into existing FPGA toolchains.
• RoHS Compliance: Meets lead-free manufacturing requirements for modern electronics production.
