LFXP2-8E-6QN208I

The LFXP2-8E-6QN208I is an industrial‑grade FPGA combining a LUT‑based FPGA fabric with non‑volatile flash configuration in Lattice’s flexiFLASH architecture. It delivers approximately 8,000 logic elements, on‑chip RAM, dedicated DSP resources, and a broad I/O set in a 208‑pin PQFP package optimized for surface‑mount assembly.

Designed for embedded and industrial applications that require reconfigurable logic, secure configuration and a compact package, this device offers instant‑on flash configuration, multiple DSP and memory resources, and support for a wide range of I/O standards and source‑synchronous interfaces.

Key Features

• Core Architecture  LUT‑based FPGA fabric with flexiFLASH architecture for instant‑on, infinitely reconfigurable single‑chip operation and on‑chip FlashBAK storage as described in the LatticeXP2 family documentation.
• Logic Capacity  Approximately 8,000 logic elements to implement mid‑size control, interface and signal processing designs.
• Embedded Memory  Total on‑chip memory of 226,304 bits (approximately 226 Kbits) for distributed and embedded storage.
• sysDSP and Multipliers  Family features include four sysDSP blocks and 16 18×18 multipliers (XP2‑8 family), providing dedicated hardware for multiply‑accumulate and DSP tasks.
• I/O and Interface Support  146 user I/Os in the 208‑pin BFQFP (208‑PQFP 28×28 mm) package. Flexible sysIO buffer supports a wide range of standards (LVCMOS, LVTTL, SSTL, HSTL, PCI, LVDS, Bus‑LVDS, MLVDS, LVPECL, RSDS) and pre‑engineered source‑synchronous interfaces including DDR/DDR2 and multi‑lane LVDS.
• Clocking  Up to two analog PLLs (family capability) for clock multiply/divide and phase shifting to support timing requirements.
• Configuration & Security  Flash‑based configuration with support for secure update features in the LatticeXP2 family (Live Update, TransFR, 128‑bit AES encryption, and dual‑boot capabilities as documented for the family).
• Power & Operating Range  Device supply range of 1.14 V to 1.26 V and an operating temperature range of −40 °C to 100 °C suitable for industrial environments.
• Package & Mounting  208‑pin BFQFP (supplier device package: 208‑PQFP, 28×28 mm) for surface‑mount PCB assembly.
• Compliance  RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control  Reconfigurable logic and on‑chip memory make the device suitable for motion control, PLC I/O aggregation, and protocol bridging in industrial automation systems.
• Embedded Systems  Mid‑density logic, DSP resources and multiple I/O standards support embedded control, sensor interfacing and custom peripheral integration.
• Display & Imaging Interfaces  Pre‑engineered source‑synchronous I/O and 7:1 LVDS support (family capability) enable display timing, serialization and interface bridging tasks.
• Memory‑Interface Gateways  Support for DDR/DDR2 source‑synchronous interfaces (family capability) for applications requiring external memory control or buffering.

Unique Advantages

• Flash‑based Instant‑On Configuration: flexiFLASH architecture enables immediate device startup and on‑board non‑volatile configuration without external volatile configuration logic.
• Integrated DSP Resources: Dedicated sysDSP blocks and 18×18 multipliers accelerate signal processing functions while keeping general logic available for control and glue logic.
• Flexible I/O in a Compact Package: 146 user I/Os in a 208‑pin PQFP package support many parallel interfaces and mixed signaling standards while fitting space‑constrained PCBs.
• Industrial Temperature Range: −40 °C to 100 °C rating supports deployments in demanding temperature environments.
• Secure Update and Dual‑Boot Support: Family‑level Live Update features and 128‑bit AES encryption support secure field updates and dual‑image boot strategies.
• Established Design Ecosystem: The LatticeXP2 family is supported by Lattice design tools and pre‑designed IP modules to speed development and integration.
