LFEC10E-5QN208C

The LFEC10E-5QN208C is a commercial-grade Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) in the LatticeECP/EC family, provided in a 208-BFQFP surface-mount package (supplier device package: 208-PQFP, 28×28). It delivers approximately 10,200 logic elements and roughly 282,624 bits of on‑chip RAM, making it suitable for mid-density, cost-sensitive FPGA designs.

Designed for mainstream embedded and interface applications, the device pairs a flexible digital fabric with a broad I/O complement (147 I/Os), support for dedicated DDR memory interfaces, and family-level tooling and IP support intended to streamline development and integration.

Key Features

• Core Logic  Approximately 10,200 logic elements provide a mid-density FPGA fabric for control, glue logic, and moderate-complexity digital functions.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 282,624 total on-chip RAM bits for distributed and block memory needs in embedded designs.
• I/O Flexibility  147 I/Os with family-level support for a wide range of signaling standards (including LVCMOS, LVTTL, SSTL, HSTL, PCI, LVDS, LVPECL and RSDS) to interface with modern peripherals and memory devices.
• Clocking  Up to four analog PLLs per device (family specification) for clock multiply/divide and phase shifting in synchronous designs.
• DDR Memory Support  Family-level dedicated DDR memory interface logic supports interfaces up to DDR400 (200 MHz), useful for systems requiring external DRAM.
• Power  Core supply range of 1.14 V to 1.26 V, compatible with the family’s 1.2 V nominal VCC architecture.
• Package & Mounting  208‑pin BFQFP package (surface mount) with supplier-referenced 208‑PQFP (28×28) package option.
• Commercial Temperature Range  Rated for operation from 0 °C to 85 °C for commercial applications.
• Compliance  RoHS compliant.
• Development Ecosystem  Family documentation references ispLEVER tool support and pre-designed ispLeverCORE IP modules to aid design implementation and migration across family densities.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Control & Logic  Mid-density FPGA fabric is well-suited for control logic, protocol handling, and system glue in commercial embedded products.
• Memory Interface & Buffering  Dedicated DDR interface support and on-chip RAM enable memory controllers, buffering, and data path staging for systems using external DRAM.
• Connectivity & Interface Bridging  Broad I/O support allows implementation of interface translators, bus bridges, and peripheral interface logic across multiple signaling standards.
• Provider of System-Level Functions  Use in cost-sensitive applications that require a balance of logic density, on-chip memory, and versatile I/O in a compact PQFP package.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Mid-Density Integration: Approximately 10,200 logic elements combined with ~282,624 bits of embedded RAM reduces external component count for many designs.
• Flexible I/O Standards: 147 I/Os with family-level support for common voltage and high-speed differential standards simplify system interfacing.
• DDR Interface Capability: Family-level DDR400 (200 MHz) support enables direct integration with common external DRAM devices for memory‑intensive applications.
• Compact Surface-Mount Packaging: 208-BFQFP / 208-PQFP (28×28) packaging provides a compact footprint for space-constrained commercial products.
• Commercial Temperature Rating: Rated 0 °C to 85 °C to match commercial product deployment and testing regimes.
• Development & IP Support: Documented support for ispLEVER tools and ispLeverCORE IP modules helps accelerate bring-up and reduce design risk.
