LCMXO1200E-5BN256C

The LCMXO1200E-5BN256C is a MachXO family FPGA optimized for glue logic, bus bridging, bus interfacing, power-up control and general control-logic tasks. It combines LUT-based logic with on-chip memory and programmable I/O to deliver a compact, single-chip solution for commercial embedded designs.

This device offers non-volatile, instant-on operation with no external configuration memory required, 1200 logic elements, 211 I/O pins in a 256-ball package, and a supply voltage range of 1.14 V to 1.26 V. It is specified for commercial temperature operation from 0 °C to 85 °C.

Key Features

• Core Logic — Provides 1200 logic elements for implementing combinational and sequential logic; architecture uses LUT-based logic for flexible resource mapping.
• On-chip Memory — Total on-chip RAM of 9421 bits to support small embedded memories and control-state storage.
• High I/O Count — Up to 211 programmable I/O pins to support complex interfacing and bus connections.
• Non-volatile, Instant-on — Single-chip non-volatile configuration enables microsecond power-up and eliminates the need for external configuration memory.
• Reconfiguration and In-field Updates — Supports SRAM reconfiguration in milliseconds and TransFR™ Reconfiguration for in-field logic updates while the system operates.
• Power and Low-Power Modes — Operates from 1.14 V to 1.26 V and includes a Sleep Mode that enables substantial static current reduction for power-sensitive systems.
• Clocking — Includes an analog sysCLOCK PLL (family support) for clock multiply/divide and phase adjustments appropriate for timing-critical interfaces.
• Package & Thermal — Available in 256-ball caBGA / LFBGA package (14×14 mm); commercial-grade operation from 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Standards & Programming — Supports JTAG programming and background programming of non-volatile memory for flexible development and deployment workflows.

Typical Applications

• Glue Logic — Implements glue logic between discrete ICs to reduce component count and simplify PCB routing.
• Bus Bridging — Performs protocol translation and bus bridging tasks where flexible I/O and on-chip logic are required.
• Bus Interfacing — Handles signal conditioning, buffering and interface adaptation across parallel and serial buses.
• Power-up Control — Manages system initialization and sequencing with instant-on, single-chip configuration to ensure predictable startup behavior.
• General Control Logic — Hosts state machines, control sequencing and peripheral aggregation for embedded systems.

Unique Advantages

• Single-chip non-volatile configuration: Eliminates external configuration memory and secures design bitstreams without added components.
• Instant-on behavior: Powers up in microseconds to accelerate system boot and reduce startup latency.
• High pin-to-logic density: 211 I/O pins combined with 1200 logic elements give designers the flexibility to implement complex interfaces within a compact footprint.
• In-field reconfiguration: TransFR™ and background programming let you update logic while the system is running, minimizing downtime.
• Low-power support: Sleep Mode enables significant static current reduction for energy-conscious designs.
• Compact BGA package: 256-ball (14×14 mm) package options allow high I/O count in a small PCB area for space-constrained applications.
