LCMXO256C-3M100C

The LCMXO256C-3M100C is a MachXO family FPGA offering a compact, non-volatile single-chip solution with 256 logic elements and up to 78 I/O pins in a 100-ball csBGA (8×8 mm) / 100-LFBGA package. It targets glue logic, bus bridging/interfacing, power-up control and general control logic where instant-on behavior, flexible I/O and compact packaging are priorities.

Designed for commercial applications, the device supports a wide supply range (1.71 V to 3.465 V), operates from 0 °C to 85 °C, and is lead free / RoHS compliant.

Key Features

• Non-volatile, instant-on configuration — Single-chip non-volatile architecture enables instant-on operation and eliminates the need for external configuration memory.
• Reconfigurable logic — 256 logic elements provide flexible implementation for glue logic, bus bridging and control tasks; reconfiguration of SRAM-based logic can be performed in milliseconds.
• High I/O density — Up to 78 user I/O pins in the 100-ball csBGA / 100-LFBGA package support dense interface requirements in a small footprint.
• Memory — Family data indicates distributed RAM support; the MachXO256 device family entry specifies approximately 2.0 Kbits of distributed RAM and no embedded block RAM (EBR).
• Power and low-power modes — Family features include a Sleep Mode that can reduce static current dramatically, supporting low standby power operation.
• I/O flexibility — The MachXO family provides programmable I/O buffers that support a wide range of interfaces and voltage levels (family-level support includes LVCMOS 3.3/2.5/1.8/1.5/1.2, LVTTL, PCI, LVDS and other signaling standards).
• Voltage and temperature — Operates from 1.71 V to 3.465 V and across a commercial temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Package — Available in a compact 100-LFBGA / csBGA (8×8 mm) package for space-constrained designs.
• Standards and programming — Family-level support includes JTAG programmability and IEEE 1532 in-system programming capabilities for secure, field-updatable configurations.
• RoHS compliant — Lead free and RoHS compatible for regulatory compliance in commercial products.

Typical Applications

• Glue Logic and Board-Level Control — Implement address decoding, control-state machines and timing glue between discrete components using compact, reprogrammable logic.
• Bus Bridging and Interface Translation — Provide protocol bridging and signal adaptation across multiple I/O standards in constrained PCB area.
• Power-Up and Reset Control — Manage power-sequencing, reset distribution and initialization control with instant-on behavior.
• Embedded Control and Peripheral Drive — Replace small CPLDs with a single reconfigurable device for peripheral control, LED/tactile interface handling and simple timing functions.

Unique Advantages

• Single-chip non-volatile solution: Eliminates external configuration memory and streamlines system boot for faster start-up.
• Compact package with ample I/O: 78 I/Os in a 100-ball csBGA / 100-LFBGA offer high pin count in a small footprint, reducing PCB area and BOM complexity.
• Flexible I/O standards: Programmable I/O buffer support for multiple logic levels and signaling standards eases integration with diverse peripherals.
• Low standby power capability: Sleep Mode support from the family reduces static current for better power efficiency in idle states.
• Field reprogrammability: JTAG and in-system programming support enable secure, in-field updates and iterative design refinement without hardware changes.
• Regulatory-ready: Lead free / RoHS compliant packaging simplifies compliance for commercial products.
