LCMXO640E-3B256C

The LCMXO640E-3B256C is a MachXO family field programmable gate array (FPGA) offered in a 256-ball LFBGA/CSPBGA package. It combines non-volatile, instant-on operation with a compact FPGA architecture providing 640 logic elements and up to 159 I/Os for glue logic, bus interfacing and control applications.

Designed for commercial-grade embedded designs, this device supports in-field reconfiguration and low-power modes while operating from a core supply of 1.14 V to 1.26 V and a commercial temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C.

Key Features

• Non-volatile, instant-on architecture  Single-chip non-volatile configuration enables power-up in microseconds without external configuration memory.
• Reconfigurability and field updates  Supports in-field logic updates and background programming of non-volatile memory for flexible maintenance and upgrades.
• Logic capacity  Contains 640 logic elements (LUTs) suitable for glue logic, bridging and control functions.
• I/O and package  Provides up to 159 I/Os in a 256-LFBGA (caBGA/CSPBGA) package for dense pin requirements in compact systems.
• Embedded and distributed memory  MachXO family devices include distributed RAM (LCMXO640 family lists approximately 6.1 Kbits of distributed RAM in family documentation) for small buffering and state storage.
• Low-power modes  Supports a sleep mode to substantially reduce static current for power-sensitive applications.
• Voltage and temperature  Operates from a core supply range of 1.14 V to 1.26 V and rated for commercial operation from 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Standards and programmability  Family-level support for JTAG programming and IEEE 1149.1 boundary scan; devices are RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Glue logic and system control  Implement power-up sequencing, reset control, and board-level control functions using compact reprogrammable logic.
• Bus bridging and interfacing  Bridge between disparate buses or perform protocol adaptation with flexible I/O options and dense pin count.
• User interface and peripheral control  Manage keypads, LEDs, and peripheral timing without external microcontroller overhead.
• Embedded system glue  Replace discrete logic libraries with a single-chip, reconfigurable solution to reduce BOM and PCB area.

Unique Advantages

• Instant-on, single-chip configuration: Eliminates the need for external configuration memory and enables rapid system startup.
• Field reconfiguration capability: Allows in-field logic updates and background programming of non-volatile memory for iterative development and updates.
• High I/O density in a compact package: 159 I/Os in a 256-ball LFBGA provide extensive connectivity in space-constrained designs.
• Commercial-grade robustness: Specified for 0 °C to 85 °C operation and RoHS compliance for mainstream embedded applications.
• Developer ecosystem: MachXO family support with ispLEVER design tools and common synthesis tool support to streamline implementation and timing closure.
