LCMXO1200E-3FT256C

Field Programmable Gate Array Overview

The LCMXO1200E-3FT256C is a MachXO family FPGA featuring 1200 logic units and 7.7 Kbits of distributed RAM. It operates with a core voltage range of 1.14V to 1.26V and supports I/O voltages of 3.3V, 2.5V, 1.8V, or 1.2V. The device includes one sysCLOCK PLL for clock management and provides up to 211 I/Os. It utilizes internal non-volatile Flash for instant-on configuration without external memory. The component is housed in a 256-ball ftBGA package measuring 17x17 mm.

Field Programmable Gate Array Feature Summary

• Non-volatile architecture enabling instant-on operation and infinite reconfigurability
• TransFR technology allowing in-field logic updates while the system operates
• Flexible sysIO buffers supporting multiple interface standards including LVDS and PCI
• Integrated sysCLOCK PLLs for precise clock multiplication and phase shifting

Field Programmable Gate Array Applications

• Glue logic implementation replacing traditional CPLDs
• Bus bridging and interface conversion between different protocol standards
• Power-up control and system initialization logic
• General-purpose I/O expansion for embedded systems

Field Programmable Gate Array Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm package type and temperature grade. Ensure compatibility with the ispLEVER design tools for synthesis and programming. Confirm RoHS compliance status if required by assembly specifications.

Field Programmable Gate Array Selection Notes

Select this model for applications requiring non-vatile FPGA capabilities with moderate logic density. The 256-ball ftBGA package offers high I/O count suitable for complex interface bridging. Consider the EBR availability in larger family members if significant block RAM is needed.

Field Programmable Gate Array Part Context

This component belongs to the Lattice MachXO series, designed to bridge the gap between CPLDs and low-density FPGAs. It combines the security and instant-on features of CPLDs with the flexibility of FPGA architectures. The MachXO family is optimized for control logic and bus interfacing applications.

Field Programmable Gate Array Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the MachXO family include LCMXO1200C variants for commercial temperature ranges. Higher density options like LCMXO2280 provide increased resources but require pinout verification.
