Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 6,100 logic elements provide mid-range programmable logic resources for control, interface and signal-processing tasks.
• On‑Chip Memory — 94,208 bits of total RAM available for distributed and block memory needs within a single FPGA package.
• I/O Density — 147 user I/Os enable complex multi‑interface connectivity without extensive external glue logic.
• Flexible I/O Standards (family capability) — As part of the LatticeECP family, the device benefits from sysI/O buffer support for a wide range of interfaces, including multiple LVCMOS voltage levels, LVTTL, SSTL, HSTL, PCI and differential standards such as LVDS (as documented for the family).
• Clocking — Family-level support for sysCLOCK PLLs (up to four analog PLLs per device) provides clock multiplication, division and phase shifting for system timing needs.
• Dedicated DDR Memory Support (family capability) — The LatticeECP family implements dedicated DDR interface logic capable of supporting interfaces up to DDR400 (200 MHz), enabling direct memory subsystem integration where required.
• Power — Core supply range of 1.14 V to 1.26 V to match modern low-voltage system rails.
• Package & Mounting — 208‑BFQFP (supplier package listed as 208‑PQFP, 28 × 28 mm) in a surface‑mount configuration for PCB assembly.
• Grade & Temperature — Commercial grade with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Compliance — RoHS‑compliant.

Typical Applications

• Communications Equipment — High I/O count and family support for a wide range of interface standards make the part suitable for front-end bridging, protocol translation and mid-range switching fabrics.
• Embedded Systems & Consumer Electronics — Balanced logic density and on-chip RAM support control, user‑interface and mixed‑function embedded designs operating on low-voltage rails.
• Memory Interface and Buffers — Family-level dedicated DDR support and on-chip memory enable integration of DDR interfaces and buffering functions for equipment requiring external memory connectivity.
• Prototyping and Evaluation — Surface-mount 208‑pin package and moderate logic/memory resources are well suited for proof-of-concept designs and developmental platforms targeting LatticeECP family feature sets.

Unique Advantages

• Well‑balanced resource mix: 6,100 logic elements and 94,208 bits of RAM provide a practical combination of logic and memory for mainstream designs without excessive board-level complexity.
• High I/O density: 147 available I/Os reduce the need for external interface components and simplify routing for multi‑channel designs.
• Low-voltage core: 1.14–1.26 V supply compatibility aligns with contemporary power rails used in modern digital systems.
• Family ecosystem: Being part of the LatticeECP family brings documented features such as flexible I/O standards, PLLs and DDR interface support for easier scaling and design reuse.
• Commercial operating range: 0 °C to 85 °C supports a wide range of mainstream electronics applications where commercial grade components are appropriate.
• RoHS compliance: Meets common regulatory requirements for lead‑free assembly and environmental standards.
