• Power Supply — Core supply range specified at 1.14 V to 1.26 V (nominal family VCC = 1.2 V), supporting modern low-voltage system architectures.
• Commercial Temperature Grade — Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C operation for standard commercial applications.
• Family-level DSP and Memory Capabilities — LatticeECP family devices include dedicated sysDSP blocks and embedded block RAM options; the family supports high-performance multiply–accumulate functions and flexible memory resources.
• Flexible I/O Standards (Family Support) — The LatticeECP family supports a wide range of I/O standards including LVCMOS (3.3/2.5/1.8/1.5/1.2), LVTTL, SSTL, HSTL, PCI, LVDS, LVPECL and RSDS for interface versatility.
• System-level Support (Family) — Family features include up to four analog PLLs per device, IEEE 1149.1 boundary scan, SPI boot flash interface, and internal logic analyzer capability (ispTRACY) to assist in system debug and clock management.
• Package & Mounting — 208-BFQFP (28 × 28 mm) surface-mount package (supplier device package listed as 208-PQFP), simplifying PCB assembly for conventional SMT processes.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Systems — Use as the programmable logic core for control, peripheral aggregation, or custom protocol handling where moderate logic and on-chip RAM are required.
• Communications & Interfaces — Implement interface bridging, SERDES-less parallel interfaces, and protocol translation leveraging the device's high I/O count and family I/O standard support.
• DSP and Signal Processing — Leverage LatticeECP family DSP capabilities (family sysDSP blocks and multiply–accumulate support) for medium-complexity signal processing tasks.
• Memory Interface & Buffering — Implement DDR interface logic and on-chip buffering consistent with the family’s dedicated DDR memory support and embedded memory resources.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory — 6,100 logic elements combined with approximately 94 kbits of RAM provide a balanced resource set for moderate-complexity designs without unnecessary overhead.
• Wide I/O Count in Compact Package — 147 I/Os in a 208-pin BFQFP package give designers extensive connectivity while maintaining a standard SMT footprint.
• Low-Voltage Core Compatibility — Narrow core supply window (1.14 V–1.26 V) aligns with a 1.2 V device family architecture for straightforward power-rail planning.
• System Integration Support — Family-level features such as multiple PLLs, boundary scan, and SPI boot provide system integration and debug capabilities that reduce development time.
• Commercial-Grade Reliability — Rated for commercial operating temperatures (0 °C to 85 °C), suitable for consumer and standard industrial control environments.
