ORSO42G5-2BMN484I

The ORSO42G5-2BMN484I is an ORCA® Series 4 field-programmable gate array (FPGA) device optimized for high-speed backplane interfaces and embedded logic integration. Built on Lattice’s Series 4 reconfigurable embedded SoC architecture, the device combines FPGA fabric, embedded memory, and integrated high-speed SERDES channels to address demanding communications and networking designs.

Targeted use cases include SONET/SDH and other high-speed backplane applications where integrated clock and data recovery, multi-gigabit serial channels, and substantial logic resources are required. The device offers a balance of logic capacity, embedded RAM, and I/O density in a compact 484-ball BGA package for industrial-grade systems.

Key Features

• FPGA Logic Capacity  Provides 10,368 logic elements for implementing custom packet handling, protocol logic, and system glue logic.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 0.114 Mbits (113,664 bits) of on-chip RAM to support buffering, FIFOs, and small lookup tables within the FPGA fabric.
• High-speed Serial Interfaces  Integrated SERDES channels (0.6 to 2.7 Gbps per channel) with built-in clock and data recovery—designed for high-speed backplane and interdevice communication.
• I/O Density  204 user I/O pins to support complex board-level interfaces and multiple high-speed links.
• System Gate Equivalent  System gate count up to 643,000 to represent the usable logic capacity for system-level designs.
• Package and Mounting  484-ball FBGA (23 × 23 mm) surface-mount package for compact board integration and reliable solder connection.
• Voltage and Power  Flexible supply range from 1.425 V to 3.6 V to fit a variety of board power architectures.
• Industrial Temperature Grade  Rated for operation from −40 °C to 85 °C for deployment in industrial environments.
• Standards and Compliance  RoHS-compliant manufacturing to meet environmental and regulatory requirements.

Typical Applications

• SONET/SDH Backplane Interfaces  Implement STS/STM framing, scrambling/descrambling, and Transport Overhead handling with integrated SERDES and CDR functions.
• High‑speed Backplane Links  Clockless, high-speed interdevice communication across boards or backplanes using the built-in multi-gigabit transceivers.
• Line Card to Switch Fabric Connects  Support for work and protection connections between line cards and switch fabric in telecom and networking equipment.
• Custom Protocol Termination  Programmable logic to terminate proprietary network formats, perform cell processing, or translate between backplane protocols.

Unique Advantages

• Integrated High‑Speed Transceivers: Built-in 0.6–2.7 Gbps SERDES with CDR reduce external components and simplify high-speed link design.
• Substantial Logic and Memory: 10,368 logic elements combined with ~0.114 Mbits of embedded RAM provide the resources needed for protocol logic, buffering, and custom processing.
• High I/O Count: 204 user I/Os enable multiple parallel interfaces and dense board-level connectivity without added IO expanders.
• Industrial Reliability: −40 °C to 85 °C operating range and RoHS compliance support deployment in industrial networking and communications systems.
• Compact BGA Package: 484-ball FBGA (23 × 23 mm) offers a high-density, serviceable footprint compatible with modern PCB layouts.
• Flexible Power Options: Wide supply range (1.425 V to 3.6 V) adapts to varied system power architectures and rail configurations.
