LFE2-12E-5QN208I

The LFE2-12E-5QN208I is an ECP2 family Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC from Lattice Semiconductor Corporation, offered in a 208-BFQFP surface-mount package. It provides mid-range programmable logic capacity with a balance of on-chip memory and I/O suitable for industrial embedded designs.

This device targets industrial applications that require configurable logic, up to 131 external I/O, and operation across a broad temperature range while operating at a low core voltage between 1.14 V and 1.26 V.

Key Features

• Core Logic — Approximately 12,000 logic elements to implement custom digital logic, control functions, and glue logic.
• Embedded Memory — Total on-chip RAM of 226,304 bits (approximately 0.226 Mbits) for data buffering, small FIFOs, and tightly coupled storage.
• I/O Capacity — Up to 131 I/O pins to support peripheral interfaces, bus bridging, and multiple I/O domains.
• Power — Core supply voltage range of 1.14 V to 1.26 V for low-voltage FPGA operation.
• Package and Mounting — 208-BFQFP package (supplier device package: 208-PQFP, 28 × 28) in a surface-mount form factor for PCB assembly.
• Industrial Temperature Range — Rated for operation from −40 °C to 100 °C; specified as industrial grade for deployment in demanding environments.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control — Implement control logic, state machines, and custom interfaces for factory automation and process control systems using the device’s logic capacity and industrial temperature rating.
• Embedded Systems — Integrate glue logic, peripheral aggregation, and protocol conversion in embedded platforms that benefit from on-chip memory and flexible I/O.
• Interface and I/O Expansion — Use the 131 I/O pins to bridge multiple peripherals, expand bus connectivity, or create custom front-end interfaces.
• Data Buffering and Preprocessing — Leverage the on-chip RAM for local buffering and small-scale preprocessing of sensor or communication data streams.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory: 12,000 logic elements paired with approximately 0.226 Mbits of embedded RAM provide a practical mid-range resource set for many control and interfacing tasks.
• High I/O Count: 131 I/Os allow flexible connectivity to peripherals, sensors, and external devices without extensive external glue logic.
• Industrial Temperature Rating: Operation from −40 °C to 100 °C supports deployment in temperature-challenging industrial environments.
• Low-Voltage Core Operation: 1.14 V to 1.26 V supply range supports low-power system designs and modern power-rail architectures.
• Compact Surface-Mount Package: 208-BFQFP (28 × 28 PQFP) provides a high-pin-count solution in a board-friendly surface-mount footprint.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance eases environmental conformity for commercial and industrial products.
