LFXP6E-3F256I

The LFXP6E-3F256I is a Lattice XP family field-programmable gate array (FPGA) in a 256-ball fpBGA (17×17 mm) package, offered in an industrial grade variant. The device integrates 6000 logic elements with on-chip RAM and a flexible, programmable I/O architecture to support embedded and industrial system designs that require non‑volatile instant-on operation and in-field reconfiguration.

Designed for systems that need fast startup, secure configuration and flexible interfaces, this FPGA balances integration and deterministic behavior with industry-proven FPGA features such as sleep modes, on-chip memory, and programmable PLLs.

Key Features

• Core Architecture Non‑volatile, infinitely reconfigurable FPGA architecture with instant-on capability (powers up in microseconds) and no external configuration memory required.
• Logic Capacity 6000 logic elements to implement control, glue-logic, protocol handling and mid-density processing tasks.
• Embedded Memory Approximately 72 Kbits of on-chip RAM (total RAM bits: 73,728) for embedded buffers, FIFOs and small data stores.
• I/O and Interface Flexibility 188 user I/Os with a programmable sysIO™ buffer supporting a wide range of standards including LVCMOS (1.2–3.3 V), LVDS, PCI, SSTL, HSTL and LVPECL, enabling diverse interface implementations.
• Clocking and Timing Integrated analog PLL resources (2 PLLs for LFXP6 devices) for clock multiplication, division and phase shifting to simplify system clock management.
• Power and Low-Power Modes Core supply range 1.14 V to 1.26 V; supports a Sleep Mode that enables large static current reduction for power-sensitive designs.
• Reconfiguration and Field Updates Supports TransFR™ in-field reconfiguration for logic updates while the system remains operational, plus programmable SRAM and non‑volatile memory via system configuration and JTAG.
• Package and Environmental 256-ball fpBGA (256‑FPBGA, 17×17 mm) surface-mount package; industrial operating temperature range from −40 °C to 100 °C; RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control Implement real-time control logic, sensor interfaces and deterministic I/O handling in industrial automation and instrumentation.
• Communications and Protocol Bridging Use the programmable I/O standards and embedded memory to implement protocol translators, interface bridges and data buffering.
• Memory Interface and DDR Support Suitable for designs that require dedicated DDR memory support and controlled clocking using the onboard PLL resources.
• Field-Upgradeable Systems Enable in-field updates and iterative feature deployment using TransFR™ reconfiguration and non‑volatile configuration storage.

Unique Advantages

• Instant-on non‑volatile operation: Eliminates the need for external configuration memory and reduces system startup time to microseconds.
• Flexible I/O standards: Broad sysIO support simplifies multimodal interface designs and reduces the need for external level‑shifters or translators.
• Power-aware features: Sleep Mode provides substantial static current reduction for energy-sensitive or battery-backed industrial applications.
• Field reconfiguration capability: TransFR™ allows logic updates while the system is operating, enabling maintenance and upgrades without full system downtime.
• Industrial temperature rating: Specified −40 °C to 100 °C operation for deployment in demanding environmental conditions.
• Compact BGA package: 256-ball fpBGA (17×17 mm) provides a high I/O count in a compact surface-mount form factor for space-constrained designs.
