LFXP2-8E-7FT256C

The LFXP2-8E-7FT256C is a LatticeXP2-family FPGA combining LUT-based programmable logic with non-volatile flash configuration. This device provides instant-on reconfigurability, on-chip configuration storage and a high I/O count, making it suitable for embedded designs that require configurable logic, secure field updates and flexible I/O integration.

Targeted at commercial-grade applications, the device delivers approximately 8,000 logic elements, around 226 Kbits of on-chip RAM and 201 I/O pins in a compact 256-ball ftBGA package.

Key Features

• Core Logic  Approximately 8,000 logic elements (LUT-based FPGA fabric) for implementing custom control, signal processing and glue-logic functions.
• On-chip Memory  Approximately 226 Kbits of on-chip RAM to support embedded data buffering, state storage and small SRAM-based functions.
• Non-volatile Configuration (flexiFLASH)  Family-level flexiFLASH architecture provides instant-on, infinitely reconfigurable single-chip flash configuration, FlashBAK and Serial TAG memory for stored configurations and design security.
• Live Update & Security  Family-level Live Update support (TransFR) enables secure updates; includes 128-bit AES encryption and dual-boot capability with external SPI.
• DSP Capability  XP2-8 family devices include sysDSP resources (XP2-8: 4 sysDSP blocks and 16 18×18 multipliers per the family table) for multiply–accumulate and mid-range signal-processing tasks.
• I/O and Interfaces  201 available I/O pins accommodate multi-channel digital interfaces, source-synchronous and high-speed signaling supported by the family architecture.
• Power  Low-voltage core operation with a specified supply range of 1.14 V to 1.26 V.
• Package & Mounting  Surface-mount 256-ball LBGA (supplier package: 256-FTBGA, 17×17 mm) for space-efficient board integration.
• Commercial Temperature Grade  Rated for operation from 0 °C to 85 °C, suitable for commercial electronic systems.
• Regulatory  RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Control & Glue Logic  Implement custom control, protocol bridging and board-level sequencing using the device’s logic elements and abundant I/O.
• Secure Field Update Systems  Use the family’s Live Update and 128-bit AES support to deploy and protect firmware or configuration updates.
• Mid-range DSP and Signal Processing  Leverage the sysDSP blocks and 18×18 multipliers for acceleration of arithmetic-intensive tasks and real-time processing.
• Display and Source-Synchronous Interfaces  The family’s pre-engineered source-synchronous interface support and high I/O count suit display drivers and high-speed parallel interfaces.

Unique Advantages

• Instant-on, non‑volatile configuration: Flash-based flexiFLASH architecture enables immediate startup without external configuration memory.
• Secure update capability: TransFR Live Update and 128‑bit AES encryption allow encrypted, managed field updates and dual-boot configurations.
• Balanced compute and memory: ~8,000 logic elements paired with ~226 Kbits of on-chip RAM offers condensed logic+memory resources for mid-density designs.
• High I/O density in a compact package: 201 I/Os in a 256-ball ftBGA (17×17 mm) footprint simplifies routing for multi-interface designs while minimizing board area.
• Low-voltage core operation: Narrow VCC range (1.14–1.26 V) supports modern low-voltage system architectures.
• Commercial-grade reliability: Specified operation from 0 °C to 85 °C for standard commercial applications and RoHS compliance for global deployment.
