LCMXO256C-4M100I

The LCMXO256C-4M100I is a MachXO family Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC offered in a 100-ball LFBGA / csBGA (8×8 mm) surface-mount package. It provides non-volatile, instant-on FPGA functionality with 256 logic elements and up to 78 user I/Os, tailored for glue logic, bus bridging, power-up control and general-purpose control logic in industrial applications.

This industrial-grade device supports a wide supply range and extended operating temperature, and inherits MachXO family capabilities for secure single-chip configuration and in-field reconfiguration workflows that simplify system-level design and maintenance.

Key Features

• Core Logic — 256 logic elements suitable for glue logic, protocol conversion and small-scale FPGA tasks.
• I/O Capacity & Flexibility — 78 I/Os in the 100-ball package; the MachXO family provides programmable I/O buffers that support multiple interface standards across common voltage rails.
• Non-volatile Configuration — MachXO family non-volatile architecture enables instant-on operation with no external configuration memory required and secure single-chip configuration.
• In-field Reconfiguration — Supports reconfiguration capabilities for background or in-system updates (family TransFR™ reconfiguration and JTAG programming features).
• Embedded Memory — Device-level distributed RAM available (family selection indicates approximately 2.0 Kbits of distributed RAM for the LCMXO256 class) and no embedded block SRAM blocks for this density.
• Power and Sleep — Wide supply range from 1.71 V to 3.465 V and family-level sleep mode that can reduce static current significantly.
• Package & Mounting — 100-LFBGA / csBGA (100-CSBGA, 8×8 mm) surface-mount package for compact board-level integration.
• Industrial Temperature Range — Rated for operation from -40°C to 100°C.
• System Support — Family-level features include IEEE 1149.1 boundary scan and IEEE 1532 in-system programming compatibility to facilitate development and manufacturing.

Typical Applications

• Glue Logic and Bus Interfacing — Use the LCMXO256C-4M100I to consolidate discrete glue logic and implement bus adapters or simple protocol bridges with fast power-up behavior.
• Power-up and Reset Control — Instant-on non-volatile configuration and control logic capabilities make this device suitable for system sequencing, reset supervision and startup control tasks.
• Field Upgradeable Logic — In-system and background programming features support field updates and incremental logic changes without external configuration memory.
• Industrial Control and I/O Management — Industrial temperature rating and flexible I/O count allow deployment in control panels, instrumentation gateways and sensor interface modules.

Unique Advantages

• Instant-on, single-chip configuration: Eliminates the need for external configuration memory and reduces system boot time.
• Secure configuration storage: Non-volatile on-chip configuration reduces risk of external bitstream interception and simplifies system security design.
• Compact, surface-mount packaging: 100-ball csBGA (8×8 mm) provides a small board footprint while delivering up to 78 I/Os for dense designs.
• Industrial robustness: Rated for -40°C to 100°C to meet demanding environmental requirements.
• Flexible supply range: Operates across 1.71 V to 3.465 V supplies to support multiple I/O voltage domains and system architectures.
• Field update workflow: Background and JTAG programming support enable in-field logic updates and iterative development.

Why Choose LCMXO256C-4M100I?
