LFXP2-17E-5FT256C

The LFXP2-17E-5FT256C is a field programmable gate array (FPGA) from the LatticeXP2 family, combining a LUT-based FPGA fabric with on-chip flash configuration. It delivers a mid-range balance of logic capacity and I/O density with 17,000 logic elements, 201 user I/O pins and approximately 0.28 Mbits of on-chip RAM (282,624 bits).

Designed for commercial-grade embedded systems, this surface-mount device supports flexible I/O standards, integrated DSP resources from the XP2 family, and flash-based configuration features for instant-on and secure updates.

Key Features

• Core Density — 17,000 logic elements to implement medium-complexity digital designs and glue logic.
• On-chip Memory — Approximately 0.28 Mbits of embedded RAM (282,624 bits) plus support for distributed memory as defined by the LatticeXP2 family.
• DSP and Multipliers — XP2 family sysDSP blocks and 18×18 multiplier resources (XP2-17 class) for efficient multiply‑accumulate operations in signal processing paths.
• I/O and Interface Support — 201 available I/O pins with the XP2 family’s flexible sysIO buffer supporting LVCMOS, LVTTL, LVDS, Bus‑LVDS, MLVDS, LVPECL, RSDS and other standards; pre‑engineered source synchronous interfaces including DDR/DDR2 up to 200 MHz and multi‑lane LVDS options are available at the family level.
• Configuration & Security — flexiFLASH architecture for instant-on, infinite reconfigurability, FlashBAK and Serial TAG memory; Live Update technology with TransFR and 128‑bit AES encryption for secure update capability (family features).
• Clocking — Multiple on-chip PLLs available in the XP2 family for clock multiplication, division and phase shifting (family feature).
• Power & Supply — Low-voltage operation with a supply range of 1.14 V to 1.26 V, targeting 1.2 V system rails.
• Package & Mounting — 256-ball LBGA package (supplier package: 256‑ftBGA, 17×17 mm); surface-mount device suitable for compact PCB layouts.
• Environmental & Standards — RoHS compliant; family-level system support includes IEEE 1149.1 and IEEE 1532 compliance.
• Commercial Grade — Specified operating range of 0 °C to 85 °C for commercial applications.

Typical Applications

• Display and Video Interfaces — Pre‑engineered LVDS and multi‑lane source synchronous interfaces in the XP2 family support display and imaging data paths.
• Embedded Control & Glue Logic — 17,000 logic elements and flexible I/O make the part well suited for system control, protocol bridging and custom peripheral integration.
• Communications & Datapath — DSP blocks and multiplier resources enable packet processing, signal conditioning and interface bridging in networked products.
• Memory Interfaces — Family-level support for DDR/DDR2 source-synchronous interfaces up to 200 MHz enables memory controller and buffering implementations.

Unique Advantages

• Flash-based instant-on architecture — flexiFLASH enables immediate device startup and on-chip non-volatile configuration without external configuration flash at system power-up.
• Secure update capability — Live Update technologies including TransFR and 128‑bit AES encryption (family features) support secure, field-updateable designs.
• Balanced integration — Mid-range logic capacity, substantial I/O count and embedded memory reduce external components and simplify system bill-of-materials.
• Flexible I/O standards — Broad I/O signaling options and source-synchronous interfaces allow interfacing with a wide range of peripherals and high-speed links.
• Compact BGA package — 256-ball ftBGA (17×17 mm) package provides a high I/O count in a space‑efficient footprint for dense PCBs.
• Commercial readiness — RoHS compliance and a defined commercial operating temperature range make the device suitable for mainstream embedded systems.
