LFXP15E-5FN256C

The LFXP15E-5FN256C is a non-volatile LatticeXP family FPGA offering approximately 15,000 logic elements and integrated on-chip memory. It combines instant-on, reconfigurable logic with a high-density I/O and compact 256-ball fpBGA (17 × 17 mm) package to address commercial embedded system designs and system-level implementations that require flexible I/O, in-field updates and compact board footprints.

Key Features

• Non-volatile, instant-on architecture Powers up in microseconds and does not require external configuration memory, enabling fast start-up and secure designs.
• Logic capacity Approximately 15,000 logic elements supporting mid-range FPGA designs and logic consolidation.
• On-chip memory Total RAM: 331,776 bits (approximately 0.33 Mbits) of embedded RAM to support buffering, packet processing and small embedded memories.
• Flexible I/O 188 user I/Os in a 256-ball fpBGA package. The LatticeXP family’s programmable sysIO buffer supports a broad range of interface standards for mixed-voltage systems.
• Power and supply Core voltage supply: 1.14 V to 1.26 V, with family-level support for multiple I/O supply voltages for system integration.
• Reconfiguration and in-field updates Supports reconfiguration while in-system (TransFR™ Reconfiguration) and JTAG/system configuration access for rapid field updates.
• Low-power modes Sleep mode capability provides significant static current reduction for power-sensitive commercial applications.
• Clocking and memory interfaces Up to 4 analog PLLs and dedicated DDR memory interface support (family-level capability up to DDR333) for high-performance timing and memory connectivity.
• Package and thermal 256-BGA (17 × 17 mm) surface-mount package; commercial operating range 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Standards and tools Family-level support includes IEEE 1149.1 boundary scan and on-chip debug/analysis capabilities to assist development and validation.

Typical Applications

• Embedded controllers — Consolidate control logic and glue functions in compact commercial embedded systems that benefit from instant-on and reconfigurability.
• Communications equipment — Implement protocol bridging, packet buffering and custom interfaces using the device’s on-chip RAM and flexible I/O.
• Consumer and multimedia devices — Use the FPGA for user interface control, peripheral aggregation and in-field feature updates without external configuration memory.
• Prototyping and system integration — Mid-range logic capacity and comprehensive family tools support rapid implementation and iterative development.

Unique Advantages

• Instant-on, non-volatile operation: Eliminates external configuration memory and enables fast system start-up and secure bitstream management.
• Compact, high-density I/O package: 188 I/Os in a 256-ball fpBGA (17 × 17 mm) package simplifies routing on space-constrained PCBs.
• Reconfigurable in the field: TransFR™ reconfiguration and JTAG/system configuration paths allow updates while deployed, minimizing downtime.
• Integrated memory resources: 331,776 bits of on-chip RAM for local buffering and embedded data storage reduces dependence on external memory.
• Low-power options: Sleep mode support enables large static current reduction for power-sensitive designs.
• Rich clocking and interface support: Multiple PLLs and family-level I/O standards support enable flexible timing and peripheral interfacing.
