LCMXO2280E-4FT256I

The LCMXO2280E-4FT256I is a MachXO family field programmable gate array (FPGA) optimized for glue logic, bus bridging, power-up control and general control logic. It combines non-volatile, instant-on configuration with an array of LUT-based logic, embedded RAM and programmable I/O to deliver a compact, reconfigurable system element.

This device targets industrial-grade embedded designs that require up to 2,280 logic elements, 211 I/Os, in-system reconfiguration and on-chip memory, all in a 256‑ball BGA package with a -40 °C to 100 °C operating range.

Key Features

• Non-volatile, instant-on configuration  Single-chip non-volatile architecture with no external configuration memory required; device powers up in microseconds and provides protection from bitstream interception.
• Logic capacity  2,280 logic elements (with 285 CLBs) to implement glue logic, control paths and medium-complexity FPGA functions.
• On-chip memory  Approximately 28 Kbits of total on-chip RAM (distributed and embedded block RAM) for state storage, FIFOs and small data buffers.
• High I/O density  211 user I/Os supporting a wide range of standards through programmable sysIO buffers (LVCMOS, LVTTL, PCI, LVDS, Bus‑LVDS, LVPECL, RSDS as supported by the family).
• Programmable clocking  Up to two analog PLLs for clock multiplication, division and phase adjustment (family-supported feature).
• Reconfiguration and programming  TransFR™ reconfiguration for in-field logic updates, JTAG programmability and IEEE 1532-compliant in-system programming.
• Power and thermal  Core supply operating range of 1.14 V to 1.26 V and industrial operating temperature range of -40 °C to 100 °C; sleep mode enables significant static current reduction.
• Package and mounting  Surface-mount 256‑LBGA / 256‑ftBGA (17×17 mm) package for compact board integration; RoHS compliant.
• System support  Boundary-scan (IEEE 1149.1) and onboard oscillator support for system-level test and clocking needs.

Typical Applications

• Glue logic and board-level control  Implement glue logic and power-up sequencing to consolidate discrete components and simplify board designs.
• Bus bridging and interfacing  Bridge between bus standards and perform protocol adaptation using the programmable I/O and on-chip logic.
• Control and sequencing  Implement system control state machines, watchdogs and startup sequencing with instant-on behavior and on-chip non-volatile configuration.
• In-field updatable logic  Support field updates and iterative feature deployment using background programming and TransFR reconfiguration.

Unique Advantages

• Instant-on, single-chip configuration: Eliminates external configuration memory for faster system startup and reduced BOM complexity.
• High I/O-to-logic ratio: 211 I/Os paired with 2,280 logic elements allow efficient implementation of I/O-rich glue and interface functions.
• Embedded RAM and FIFO support: On-chip memory (≈28 Kbits) supports buffering and state storage without external SRAM.
• Industrial temperature range: Rated from -40 °C to 100 °C to match demanding board- and system-level thermal environments.
• Compact BGA footprint: 256‑ball ftBGA (17×17 mm) package enables dense board integration while maintaining high pin count.
• Standards and test support: Includes IEEE 1149.1 boundary-scan and IEEE 1532-compliant in-system programming for production testability and field updates.
