Key Features

• Logic Capacity  Approximately 10,200 logic elements (≈10.2K LUTs), providing fabric for mid-range FPGA designs.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 0.28 Mbits of embedded memory (276 Kbits EBR / 282,624 total RAM bits) for on-chip data buffering and state storage.
• DSP and Multiply Resources  Part of the LatticeECP/EC family architecture that includes dedicated sysDSP resources for high-performance multiply and accumulate functions.
• I/O Density and Flexibility  147 user I/Os with a programmable sysI/O buffer supporting LVCMOS (3.3/2.5/1.8/1.5/1.2), LVTTL, SSTL, HSTL, PCI, LVDS, Bus-LVDS, LVPECL and RSDS interface standards.
• Clocking  Up to four PLLs for clock multiply/divide and phase control to support complex clocking domains.
• DDR Memory Support  On-family support for dedicated DDR interfaces up to DDR400 (200 MHz) for external memory systems.
• Power and Supply  Nominal core voltage range of 1.14 V to 1.26 V.
• Package and Mounting  208-BFQFP package (supplier package: 208-PQFP, 28 × 28 mm) designed for surface-mount assembly.
• Operating Range  Industrial-grade operation from −40 °C to 100 °C.
• Design Ecosystem  Supported by the ispLEVER design tool suite and available ispLeverCORE IP blocks to accelerate development and integration.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control  Programmable logic and robust operating range enable motor control, factory automation interfaces, and machine I/O aggregation.
• Communications and Networking  Flexible I/O standards and DDR memory interface support make the device suitable for protocol bridging, packet processing, and interface expansion.
• Signal Processing / DSP  On-chip DSP resources and abundant logic elements support embedded filtering, transforms, and real-time data processing tasks.
• Embedded System Glue Logic  Use as a configurable interface and control hub for peripherals, sensors, and system management functions.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory  ~10,200 logic elements combined with ~0.28 Mbits of embedded memory provides a practical balance for mid-size designs without external SRAM for many use cases.
• Flexible I/O Support  Wide programmable I/O standards reduce the need for level translators and simplify board-level interfacing across multiple voltage domains.
• Clocking and Timing Control  Multiple PLLs enable reliable clock domain creation and phase control for multi-clock systems.
• Industrial Temperature Rating  Operation from −40 °C to 100 °C meets the thermal requirements of many industrial applications.
• Compact Surface-Mount Package  208-pin PQFP footprint provides high I/O count in a compact form factor for space-constrained designs.
• Tool and IP Support  Compatibility with the ispLEVER tool suite and pre-designed IP blocks accelerates development and reduces time to market.
