LFEC6E-5QN208C

The LFEC6E-5QN208C is an EC-family Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) from Lattice Semiconductor, delivered in a 208-BFQFP (208-PQFP, 28 × 28 mm) package. It provides a balanced combination of logic capacity, on-chip memory and I/O density for mainstream, cost-sensitive FPGA applications.

With 6,100 logic elements, 94,208 bits of total on-chip RAM and 147 available I/Os, this commercial-grade device addresses embedded designs that require flexible I/O, programmable logic and low core-voltage operation within a standard commercial temperature range.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 6,100 logic elements suitable for mid-density designs and FPGA-based system functions.
• On-chip Memory — 94,208 bits of total RAM to support buffering, small data stores and distributed memory needs.
• I/O and Package — 147 I/Os in a 208-BFQFP (208-PQFP, 28 × 28 mm) surface-mount package for board-level connectivity and flexible signal routing.
• Power and Supply — Core supply range specified at 1.14 V to 1.26 V for low-voltage FPGA cores.
• Operating Range and Grade — Commercial grade operation from 0 °C to 85 °C; RoHS compliant.
• Family-Level Capabilities (LatticeECP/EC) — Family features include flexible programmable I/O support for common signaling standards, dedicated support for DDR memory interfaces, on-chip PLL clock management and an established design tool flow with ispLEVER and pre-designed IP modules.
• Surface-Mount Assembly — Surface-mount mounting type enables compact PCB implementations.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Systems — Provides mid-range programmable logic and on-chip memory for control, glue logic and protocol handling in embedded designs.
• Communications and Interfaces — 147 I/Os and flexible family I/O support enable diverse interface implementations and protocol bridging.
• Consumer and Industrial Electronics (Commercial Grade) — Useful for feature-rich consumer or commercial equipment requiring programmable logic and medium on-chip RAM capacity within commercial temperature limits.
• Prototyping and Evaluation — Well-suited for FPGA-based prototypes and development projects that require a mid-density, packaged FPGA with accessible I/O.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced mid-range resources: 6,100 logic elements and 94,208 bits of RAM offer a practical balance of logic and memory for many mainstream designs.
• High I/O count in a compact package: 147 I/Os in a 208-pin PQFP package maximize board-level connectivity without requiring a large BGA footprint.
• Low-voltage core operation: Narrow core supply range (1.14 V–1.26 V) aligns with modern low-voltage FPGA designs.
• Commercial-grade robustness: Specified for 0 °C to 85 °C operation and RoHS compliance for mainstream product deployment.
• Family ecosystem: Leverages the LatticeECP/EC family design flow and available ispLEVER toolchain and IP modules for faster design integration and density migration within the family.
