LCMXO256C-4MN100I

The LCMXO256C-4MN100I is a MachXO family FPGA offering a compact, non-volatile logic solution for industrial applications. Built around 256 logic elements (LUTs) and 78 I/Os, this device is optimized for glue logic, bus interfacing, control functions and other system integration tasks where instant-on behavior, design security and small board footprint matter.

Its single-chip, reconfigurable architecture and family-level features such as instant-on configuration and in-field reconfiguration enable simplified system designs with lower BOM and flexible field updates.

Key Features

• Core Logic  256 logic elements (LUTs) for implementing glue logic, state machines and interfacing functions.
• I/O Capacity  78 I/Os to support a variety of peripheral and bus interfaces in a compact package.
• Memory  Family-level distributed RAM (approximately 2.0 Kbits as published for the MachXO256 family) for small FIFOs and scratchpad storage.
• Non-volatile Configuration  Single-chip, non-volatile architecture with instant-on operation and no external configuration memory required (family feature).
• In-field Reconfiguration  TransFR™ reconfiguration allows in-field logic updates while the system operates (family feature).
• Power and Low-Power Modes  Operates from 1.71 V to 3.465 V and includes a Sleep Mode that can reduce static current by up to 100× (family feature).
• Industrial Temperature Range  Rated for operation from −40 °C to 100 °C.
• Package & Mounting  100-LFBGA / 100-CSBGA (8×8 mm) surface-mount package for space-constrained board designs.
• Compliance  RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Glue Logic and System Control  Implement address decoding, reset and power sequencing, and general control state machines in industrial systems.
• Bus Bridging and Interfacing  Bridge between legacy and modern buses or adapt signal levels with available I/O count and flexible voltage operation.
• Peripheral and Sensor Interfaces  Consolidate multiple peripheral I/Os and timing control functions in a single, non-volatile device.
• Power-up and Sequencing Control  Use instant-on configuration and deterministic startup behavior for reliable power-up management.

Unique Advantages

• Instant-on, single-chip design: Eliminates the need for external configuration memory, simplifying BOM and reducing board complexity.
• Field reprogrammability: TransFR™ in-field reconfiguration supports updates without removing the device from the system.
• Low-power operation and sleep mode: Sleep Mode provides substantial static current reduction for energy-conscious industrial applications.
• Broad supply range: 1.71 V to 3.465 V operation enables flexibility across mixed-voltage systems.
• Industrial temperature rating: −40 °C to 100 °C supports deployment in harsh environments.
• Compact BGA package: 100-ball csBGA (8×8 mm) minimizes PCB area while offering robust I/O count.
