LCMXO1200E-3BN256C

The LCMXO1200E-3BN256C is a MachXO family FPGA offering non-volatile, instant-on configuration and flexible FPGA-style logic for commercial embedded designs. It combines 1200 logic elements with a compact 256-ball LFBGA package and a high pin count to address glue logic, bus bridging, interface control and power-up control tasks.

This device is optimized for applications requiring a single-chip, secure configuration with fast startup and in-field reconfiguration. Key hardware attributes include 211 user I/Os, approximately 9.4 Kbits of on-chip RAM, and a supply voltage range centered around 1.2 V (1.14 V to 1.26 V), all in a surface-mount 256-CABGA (14×14 mm) package rated for commercial temperature operation (0 °C to 85 °C).

Key Features

• Core Logic 1200 logic elements and 150 CLBs provide flexible LUT-based logic resources suitable for glue logic and control functions.
• On-chip Memory Approximately 9,421 bits (≈9.4 Kbits) of on-chip RAM for embedded storage and small FIFOs.
• I/O and Interfaces Up to 211 user I/Os in the 256-ball package deliver high I/O-to-logic density for bus interfacing and multi-signal designs.
• Non-volatile, Instant-on Configuration Single-chip non-volatile configuration enables instant power-up without external configuration memory and supports secure bitstream handling.
• Reconfiguration and Programming Supports in-field reconfiguration and background programming workflows for updating logic while in-system (TransFR™ reconfiguration capability noted in MachXO family documentation).
• Power and Sleep Mode Low-power features include a sleep mode for significant static current reduction, supporting power-constrained commercial designs.
• Packaging and Mounting Surface-mount 256-LFBGA (256-CABGA, 14×14 mm) package suitable for compact PCB layouts and automated assembly.
• Commercial Temperature Grade Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C operation for general commercial applications.
• Standards and System Support Family-level features include JTAG programming and boundary-scan support for in-system programming and testability.

Typical Applications

• Glue Logic and System Control Implements board-level glue logic, control sequencing and power-up control without external configuration memory.
• Bus Bridging and Interface Conversion High I/O count and flexible I/O buffering make it suitable for bus interfacing and protocol bridging on commercial systems.
• User Interface and Peripheral Control Handles keypad, LED, sensor, and peripheral control tasks where compact, reconfigurable logic is required.
• In-field Logic Updates Supports background and in-field reconfiguration workflows for feature updates or bug fixes without full system downtime.

Unique Advantages

• Instant-on, Single-chip Configuration: Eliminates the need for external configuration memory, simplifying BOM and startup sequencing.
• High I/O Density vs. Logic: 211 I/Os paired with 1200 logic elements enable complex interfacing in a compact device footprint.
• Compact, Surface-mount Package: 256-CABGA (14×14 mm) package supports space-constrained board designs while maintaining high pin count.
• Integrated On-chip Memory: Approximately 9.4 Kbits of on-chip RAM provides local storage for FIFOs and small data buffers without external RAM.
• Designed for Commercial Deployments: Commercial-grade temperature range (0 °C to 85 °C) and RoHS-compliant packaging meet common product requirements.
• Support for In-system Programming and Test: JTAG and boundary-scan capabilities simplify programming and board-level validation.
