LFE2-50SE-7F672C

The LFE2-50SE-7F672C is a commercial-grade FPGA from Lattice Semiconductor's LatticeECP2 family. It delivers a balanced combination of logic density, embedded memory and flexible I/O in a 672-ball BGA package for system integration and mid-range FPGA designs.

With approximately 48,000 logic elements, roughly 396,288 bits of on-chip RAM and up to 500 I/Os, this device targets applications that require high I/O count, moderate embedded memory and advanced programmable I/O and clocking resources while operating from a 1.14 V to 1.26 V core supply.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — Approximately 48,000 logic elements to support mid-size to complex logic implementations and system integration.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 396,288 bits of on-chip RAM for buffering, FIFOs and on-chip data storage.
• I/O Density — Up to 500 user I/Os to support wide parallel interfaces and multiple I/O banks in a single device.
• Programmable I/O Support — Family-level support for a wide range of interface standards and source-synchronous I/O features for DDR and high-speed parallel links (as described in the LatticeECP2/M family data sheet).
• DSP and Clocking Resources — Family features include sysDSP blocks and multiple analog PLLs/DLLs for multiply-accumulate operations and flexible clocking (refer to family data sheet for block counts and configurations).
• Package and Mounting — 672-ball FPBGA (27 × 27 mm) package, surface-mount construction for compact board-level integration.
• Operating Conditions — Commercial grade: 0 °C to 85 °C ambient operating temperature; core supply range 1.14 V to 1.26 V.
• Regulatory — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Networking & Communications — Implement protocol bridging, packet processing or interface aggregation where high I/O counts and embedded memory are required.
• Embedded Signal Processing — Use the device’s DSP and on-chip RAM resources for filtering, buffering and real-time data manipulation in midsize signal-processing tasks.
• Board-Level Interface Management — Consolidate multiple parallel and serial interfaces using the high I/O count and programmable I/O buffers.
• Memory Interface Control — Support DDR-type memory interfaces and source-synchronous designs using the family’s dedicated DDR and DQS support (see family data sheet for details).

Unique Advantages

• High I/O scalability: 500 available I/Os enable broad interface support and reduce the need for external bridge logic.
• Substantial on-chip memory: Nearly 396 Kbits of embedded RAM supports local buffering and reduces external memory bandwidth requirements.
• Robust logic capacity: Approximately 48K logic elements accommodate complex finite-state machines, datapaths and glue logic in a single device.
• Compact package: 672-ball FPBGA (27 × 27 mm) allows dense board-level integration while maintaining high I/O counts.
• Design ecosystem: The LatticeECP2 family is supported by the manufacturer’s device families and tool ecosystem, facilitating implementation and scaling across related parts (refer to the family data sheet for tool support).
