Overview

The LCMXO3LF-6900C-5BG400I is a non-volatile, instant-on MachXO3 FPGA designed for high I/O density and low power consumption. It features 6864 logic elements, 240 Kbits of embedded RAM, and 448 KB of user flash memory in a compact 400-ball BGA package. This industrial-grade device includes hardened I2C and SPI interfaces to offload common communication tasks from the fabric.

Why Choose This Part

The MachXO3LF offers the reliability of non-volatile configuration without the need for external boot PROM, enabling instant-on functionality within milliseconds. Its wide voltage range of 2.375V to 3.465V and hardened IP blocks like timers and SPI controllers reduce both PCB footprint and overall power consumption.

Applications

System Control and Sequencing
Managing complex power-up sequences and reset logic for multi-rail processor systems.
I/O Expansion
Adding 335 flexible I/O pins to microcontrollers or SoCs for GPIO, LVDS, and industrial interface bridging.
Video Interfacing
Emulating MIPI D-PHY and other differential signaling standards for camera and display data routing.
In-Field Logic Updates
Utilizing TransFR technology to perform logic updates while the system remains operational.
