LFE3-17EA-8MG328I

The LFE3-17EA-8MG328I is an ECP3 Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) from Lattice Semiconductor Corporation that integrates 17,000 logic elements and approximately 0.72 Mbits of embedded memory. Supplied in a 328-pin LFBGA/CSBGA package and rated for industrial temperatures, it delivers a balanced combination of on-chip logic, memory, and I/O density for compact, rugged designs.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 17,000 logic elements provide programmable fabric for implementing custom logic, state machines, and glue functions.
• Embedded Memory — Approximately 0.72 Mbits of on-chip RAM supports buffering, FIFOs, and small data stores directly in the FPGA.
• I/O Density — 116 user I/Os accommodate multiple peripheral interfaces, sensor connections, and external logic interconnects.
• Power — Core voltage supply range of 1.14 V to 1.26 V to match system power domains and regulator selections.
• Package & Mounting — Available in a 328-LFBGA (328-CSBGA, 10×10) package for surface-mount PCB assembly where high pin-count in a compact footprint is required.
• Industrial Temperature Range — Rated for operation from −40 °C to 100 °C, suitable for industrial environments.
• Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliant to support environmentally conscious manufacturing and assembly.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control — Use the industrial temperature rating and on-chip logic to implement sensor interfacing, motion control sequencing, and custom control algorithms.
• I/O Consolidation and Protocol Bridging — Leverage 116 user I/Os to consolidate peripherals, perform protocol translation, or serve as a programmable I/O hub in compact systems.
• Embedded Glue Logic — Deploy the FPGA’s 17,000 logic elements and embedded RAM to integrate custom glue logic, bus arbitration, and interface timing without additional discrete components.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced On-chip Resources: 17,000 logic elements paired with ~0.72 Mbits of RAM provide room to implement moderate-complexity designs without external memory.
• High I/O Count in a Compact Package: 116 I/Os in a 328-LFBGA (328-CSBGA, 10×10) package enables dense connectivity while minimizing PCB area.
• Industrial Reliability: −40 °C to 100 °C operating range and surface-mount package options support deployment in industrial environments.
• Tight Core Voltage Window: 1.14 V to 1.26 V supply range allows precise power budgeting and compatibility with regulated core supplies.
• RoHS Compliance: Environmentally compliant construction helps meet production and sourcing requirements.
