LFEC6E-5TN144C

The LFEC6E-5TN144C is a commercial-grade EC (EConomy) family FPGA from Lattice Semiconductor, designed to deliver mainstream FPGA features in a cost-conscious package. It combines a mid-density FPGA fabric with flexible I/O and on-chip memory to address a range of commercial embedded and interface applications.

With approximately 6,100 logic elements, about 94,208 bits of total RAM, and 97 user I/Os in a compact 144-pin package, this device is aimed at designers who need moderate programmable logic capacity with a low-voltage core (1.14 V–1.26 V) and standard commercial temperature support (0 °C–85 °C).

Key Features

• Logic Capacity  Approximately 6,100 logic elements to support mid-density designs and logic integration across control, glue-logic, and protocol tasks.
• On-chip Memory  About 94,208 bits of total RAM for distributed and small block memory needs within embedded designs.
• I/O Count & Packaging  97 user I/Os in a 144-pin LQFP/TQFP footprint (144-LQFP / 144-TQFP, 20 × 20 mm), offering a balance of signals and a compact board footprint. Mounting type: surface mount.
• Power Supply  Core supply range of 1.14 V to 1.26 V to match low-voltage system designs.
• Operating Range & Grade  Commercial temperature grade with an operating range of 0 °C to 85 °C, suitable for mainstream commercial deployments.
• System & Configuration Support  Family-level features include sysCLOCK PLLs for clock multiply/divide and phase shifting, IEEE 1149.1 boundary scan, SPI boot flash interface and internal logic analysis capability as described for the LatticeECP/EC family.
• Standards & Compliance  RoHS compliant, supporting environmental and manufacturing requirements for lead-free assemblies.

Typical Applications

• Consumer & Commercial Electronics  Mid-density programmable logic for user interfaces, peripheral bridging and control functions where compact package and moderate logic are required.
• Communications & Networking  Protocol conversion, I/O aggregation and timing control using the device’s flexible I/O count and on-chip memory.
• Embedded Control & Instrumentation  Glue logic, I/O expansion and custom control logic in commercial embedded systems operating within the specified temperature range.
• Prototyping & Development  Platform for validating logic partitioning and system interfacing prior to higher-density or custom implementations.

Unique Advantages

• Mid-density integration:  Approximately 6,100 logic elements and ~94,208 bits of RAM deliver practical capacity for a wide range of commercial designs without excessive board area or cost.
• High I/O count in a small footprint:  97 I/Os in a 144-pin package provide plentiful interface options while keeping PCB real estate compact (144-pin TQFP/LQFP, 20 × 20 mm).
• Low-voltage core:  1.14 V–1.26 V supply range aligns with low-voltage system architectures and simplifies power-rail planning.
• System-level support features:  Family-level capabilities such as PLLs, boundary-scan and SPI boot interface simplify clocking, test and configuration workflows.
• Commercial readiness:  Commercial temperature grade and RoHS compliance make the device suitable for mainstream production and regulatory expectations for consumer and commercial products.
• Surface-mount convenience:  Available in a standard surface-mount 144-pin package for straightforward assembly and industry-standard manufacturing.
