LCMXO2280E-5FT256C

The LCMXO2280E-5FT256C is a MachXO family FPGA device designed for glue logic, bus interfacing, control logic and power-up control applications. It combines a non-volatile, instant-on architecture with reconfigurable FPGA-style logic to deliver single-chip system integration without external configuration memory.

This device provides 2,280 logic elements, 28,262 bits of on-chip RAM, and 211 I/O pins in a 256-ball BGA package, making it suitable for compact commercial designs that require fast start-up, flexible I/O, and background reconfiguration capability.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 2,280 logic elements (LUT-based architecture) for implementing glue logic, bus bridges and control functions.
• On-chip Memory — Total RAM of 28,262 bits (approximately 27.6 Kbits) including embedded and distributed memory resources for state storage and FIFOs.
• I/O Density — 211 user I/O pins to support a wide range of interfaces and board-level connectivity in the 256-ball package.
• Non-volatile, Instant-on — Single-chip non-volatile architecture provides microsecond power-up and eliminates the need for external configuration memory.
• Background Reconfiguration and TFR — Supports in-field reconfiguration and background programming of non-volatile memory; TransFR™ Reconfiguration enables updates while the system operates.
• Low-power Modes — Sleep mode supports substantial static current reduction to minimize standby power.
• Programmable Clocking — MachXO family devices include up to two PLLs for clock multiply/divide and phase control (family-level feature applicable to this device).
• Package & Mounting — 256-ball LBGA (supplier package 256-FTBGA, 17×17 mm); surface-mount mounting for compact PCB integration.
• Power & Temperature — Core supply range 1.14 V to 1.26 V; commercial operating temperature 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Compliance — RoHS-compliant packaging.

Typical Applications

• Glue Logic and Board-Level Control — Replace discrete logic with reconfigurable on-chip logic for address decoding, control state machines and timing management.
• Bus Bridging and Interfacing — Implement protocol adaptation and signal routing where multiple I/O standards and dense pin counts are required.
• Power-Up and Reset Management — Use instant-on non-volatile configuration and control logic to manage system power sequencing and supervisory functions.
• Field-Upgradable Control Logic — Take advantage of TransFR™ reconfiguration for in-field updates to control firmware without interrupting system operation.

Unique Advantages

• Single-chip, non-volatile configuration: Eliminates external configuration memory and provides instant-on startup to simplify system BOM and boot behavior.
• High I/O-to-logic density: 211 I/Os with 2,280 logic elements allow dense interfacing while retaining ample logic resources for glue and control tasks.
• In-field reprogrammability: Background programming and TransFR reconfiguration let you update logic in deployed systems with minimal disruption.
• Low-power standby capability: Sleep mode provides a large reduction in static current for power-sensitive commercial applications.
• Compact BGA package: 256-ball BGA (256-FTBGA footprint) enables space-efficient PCB layouts for compact products.
• Toolchain support (family-level): MachXO devices are supported by ispLEVER design tools and common synthesis flows for integration into existing development processes.
