LFSC3GA40E-5FF1020C

The LFSC3GA40E-5FF1020C is a commercial-grade SC family Field Programmable Gate Array from Lattice Semiconductor, supplied in a 1020-BBGA (FCBGA) package. It delivers 40,000 logic elements, extensive on-chip memory, and a large I/O count for communication and system-integration designs that require dense logic, flexible I/O and embedded RAM.

This device targets applications in communication systems and embedded platforms where high logic capacity, abundant I/O and memory, and programmable clocking and SERDES capabilities are required. Its combination of logic density, roughly 4.08 Mbits of embedded memory, and 562 I/Os supports complex protocol handling, buffering and high-speed interfacing in a single package.

Key Features

• Core Logic  40,000 logic elements (cells) provide programmable fabric suitable for moderate-to-high density logic implementations within the Lattice SC family.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 4.08 Mbits of total on-chip RAM (4,075,520 bits) to support block and distributed memory needs for buffering, queues and local data storage.
• I/O Capacity and Standards  562 user I/Os with broad electrical standard support across the SC/M family, enabling diverse single-ended and differential interfaces for system interconnects.
• High-Speed SERDES and Protocol Support  SC family devices feature 4 to 32 high-speed SERDES and flexiPCS implementations for multi‑Gbps serial links and common communication protocols (family-level feature).
• Clocking and Timing  Family-provided sysCLOCK resources include multiple PLLs and DLLs to support high-performance clock networks and edge-clocking up to 1 GHz (family-level capabilities described in datasheet).
• Power and Supply  Supports core supply range from 0.95 V to 1.26 V to match system power architectures.
• Packaging and Mounting  Surface-mount 1020-BBGA, FCBGA package with supplier device package listed as 1020-OFCBGA (33x33), offering high pin-count routing density.
• Commercial Temperature and Compliance  Rated for 0°C to 85°C operating temperature range and RoHS compliant for global product requirements.

Typical Applications

• Network & Telecom Equipment  Implements protocol handling, packet buffering and SERDES-based line interfaces for switches, routers and telecom endpoints.
• Backplane & Interconnect Bridging  Enables protocol bridging and protocol-aware logic for high-density board-level interconnects using abundant I/O and serial interface capability.
• Embedded Systems & Appliances  Provides programmable logic and on-chip memory for offload tasks, custom peripheral control and system glue logic in commercial embedded products.
• High-Speed Serial Interface Design  Supports multi‑Gbps serial channels and associated PCS functionality for designs that require robust link management and jitter tolerance (family-level features).

Unique Advantages

• High Logic Density: 40,000 logic elements let you implement complex state machines, datapaths and control logic without external ASICs.
• Substantial On-Chip RAM: Approximately 4.08 Mbits of embedded memory reduces external memory needs for buffering and local data storage, simplifying BOM and board layout.
• Large I/O Count: 562 I/Os provide direct connectivity to wide buses, multiple peripherals and dense inter-board interfaces, minimizing multiplexing overhead.
• Flexible High-Speed Links: Family-level SERDES and flexiPCS support multi‑Gbps serial protocols to integrate high-throughput channels in communication applications.
• Programmable Clocking: Multiple PLL/DLL resources in the SC family enable precise, high-frequency clocking and edge-clock support for timing-critical designs.
• Commercial-Grade Availability: Surface-mount 1020-BBGA packaging and a 0°C to 85°C rating match standard commercial system manufacturing and operating environments.
