The LFE2-12E-5QN208C is a commercial-grade FPGA IC built on the Lattice ECP2 family architecture. It provides a mid-range programmable fabric with 12,000 logic elements and extensive on-chip RAM for system integration and embedded logic tasks.

Designed for I/O-rich, low-voltage applications, this surface-mount device combines a 208-pin PQFP-style package with a broad supply voltage window and commercial temperature rating to support a range of embedded and interface-focused designs.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 12,000 logic elements to implement mid-range combinational and sequential logic functions.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 0.226 Mbits (226,304 bits) of on-chip RAM for buffering, FIFOs and small data stores.
• I/O and Packaging — 131 user I/O signals in a 208-BFQFP / 208-PQFP (28 × 28 mm) surface-mount package for dense peripheral connectivity.
• Power — Core supply range of 1.14 V to 1.26 V to support low-voltage system rails.
• Temperature & Grade — Commercial grade device specified for 0 °C to 85 °C operation; RoHS compliant.
• Family-level Architecture — Built on the LatticeECP2 family architecture that provides flexible memory resources, dedicated clock resources (GPLLs/SPLLs/DLLs), pre‑engineered source-synchronous I/O support and enhanced configuration options as described in the family datasheet.
• Surface Mount — 208-pin package configured for standard PCB assembly processes.

Typical Applications

• Embedded processing and DSP acceleration — On-chip logic and embedded memory support algorithm implementation and intermediate data buffering.
• Memory interface and controllers — Family-level support for DDR/DDR2 memory interfaces and dedicated I/O gearing enables implementation of memory controller and interface logic.
• I/O-rich interface bridging — 131 I/Os in a compact PQFP package are suitable for sensor aggregation, peripheral bridging and protocol translation.
• Communication and data handling — Programmable fabric and clock resources simplify protocol handling, packet processing and data path buffering tasks.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced mid-range capacity: 12,000 logic elements with substantial on-chip RAM provide a blend of logic and memory for integrated system functions without excessive board-level external memory.
• High I/O density in a compact package: 131 I/Os in a 208-pin surface-mount PQFP reduce PCB area while maintaining broad peripheral connectivity.
• Low-voltage core operation: 1.14 V to 1.26 V supply simplifies power-supply design for modern low-voltage systems.
• Commercial-grade and environmentally compliant: Specified for 0 °C to 85 °C operation and RoHS compliant to meet common commercial manufacturing and regulatory expectations.
• Established design ecosystem: The device is part of the Lattice ECP2 family architecture, which is supported by Lattice design tools and documentation for design implementation and debugging.
