Overview

The LCMXO3LF-1300E-5MG256C is an ultra-low-power MachXO3 Field Programmable Gate Array featuring 1280 logic elements and integrated non-volatile configuration memory. Operating at a core voltage of 1.2V, this device is designed for instant-on capability and high-speed I/O bridging in compact embedded systems. It provides 206 available I/O pins in a small 9x9mm 256-CSFBGA package, making it suitable for space-constrained designs.

Why Choose This Part

This FPGA offers a high I/O-to-logic ratio with 206 pins for only 1280 logic cells, providing significant flexibility for routing and interface tasks. The MachXO3LF technology includes on-chip Flash for multi-time programmability without requiring external configuration PROMs. Its ultra-low power consumption, with a typical run current as low as 1.39mA, makes it ideal for battery-operated mobile and industrial devices.

Applications

I/O Expansion and Bridging
Connecting mismatched peripheral interfaces or adding GPIO capacity to microcontrollers with limited pin counts.
Sensor Hub Aggregation
Managing multiple low-speed serial interfaces like I2C or SPI and preprocessing data before sending it to a primary SoC.
Power-Up Sequencing
Implementing complex board-level power management and hardware reset logic due to its instant-on performance.
Video Interface Conversion
Bridging MIPI CSI-2, DSI, or sub-LVDS signals in camera and display subsystems.

Getting Started

Design entry is performed using Lattice Diamond design software, which supports VHDL, Verilog, and IP generation. For hardware evaluation, the MachXO3L Starter Kit provides a platform to test I/O performance and power consumption. Engineers should ensure the 1.14V to 1.26V core supply is properly decoupled according to Lattice layout guidelines.
