LFXP2-5E-7QN208C

The LFXP2-5E-7QN208C is a commercial-grade field programmable gate array (FPGA) based on the LatticeXP2 family flexiFLASH architecture. It provides 5,000 logic elements, 146 I/Os and on-chip non-volatile configuration capabilities suited for commercial embedded applications that require reconfigurable logic, secure updates and compact packaging.

Designed for applications that need programmable logic, moderate embedded memory and a 208-pin PQFP footprint, this device targets developers needing a balance of density, I/O count and flash-based instant-on configuration.

Key Features

• Core Logic  5,000 logic elements for implementing combinational and sequential logic functions.
• Embedded Memory  Total on-chip RAM of 169,984 bits (approximately 170 Kbits) to support internal buffering, state storage and small data structures.
• I/O and Packaging  146 available I/Os in a 208-BFQFP (208-PQFP, 28 × 28 mm) surface-mount package for dense board-level integration.
• Power  Operates from a supply range of 1.14 V to 1.26 V (nominally 1.2 V).
• Operating Conditions  Commercial grade operation from 0 °C to 85 °C.
• flexiFLASH Architecture (Family Feature)  Instant-on, infinitely reconfigurable single-chip flash architecture with embedded FlashBAK technology and serial TAG memory for secure configuration management.
• Live Update and Security (Family Feature)  Support for TransFR live update technology, secure updates with 128-bit AES encryption and dual-boot via external SPI (family capability documented in LatticeXP2 data sheet).
• DSP and Clocking (Family Feature)  LatticeXP2 family includes sysDSP blocks, hardware multipliers and up to four analog PLLs per device for clock management and signal-processing acceleration (family-level capabilities).

Typical Applications

• Commercial Embedded Systems  Implements control logic, protocol bridging and peripheral management in compact, board-level solutions that require reprogrammable logic.
• Interface and I/O Bridging  Provides dense I/O (146 pins) in a 208-PQFP package for protocol adaptation, signal routing and custom interface glue logic.
• Signal Processing Acceleration  Uses on-chip RAM and family sysDSP resources for targeted multiply-accumulate and data-path tasks within commercial applications.
• Field-Upgradeable Designs  flexiFLASH and Live Update family features enable secure firmware/bitstream updates and dual-boot strategies for in-field reconfiguration and maintenance.

Unique Advantages

• Flash-based Instant-On:  flexiFLASH architecture enables single-chip, non-volatile configuration for immediate startup without external configuration memory.
• Secure Update Options:  Family-level support for TransFR and 128-bit AES encryption lets designs incorporate secure remote updates and dual-boot strategies.
• Balanced Density and I/O:  5,000 logic elements paired with 146 I/Os in a 208-PQFP package offers a practical balance for mid-density designs needing a high pin count in a PQFP form factor.
• Low-Voltage Operation:  Supported supply range near 1.2 V reduces power domain complexity for designs targeting low-voltage systems.
• Design Ecosystem:  LatticeXP2 family support in Lattice Diamond design software and available LatticeCORE IP modules streamlines implementation and verification (family-level resources).
