LFXP2-17E-5FTN256I
Overview
The LFXP2-17E-5FTN256I is a non-volatile FPGA from Lattice Semiconductor's XP2 family, featuring 17,000 logic cells and 276 KB of internal RAM. This device utilizes flexiFLASH architecture to provide instant-on capability and high design security with 128-bit AES encryption. It is a single-chip solution that eliminates the need for external configuration PROMs while supporting live updates via TransFR technology.
Why Choose This Part
The primary advantage is the combination of SRAM-based FPGA flexibility with on-chip Flash memory, enabling a single-chip, instant-on solution. It includes FlashBAK technology for storing register states during power-down and supports dual-boot configurations from external SPI memory for fail-safe field updates. The device also features an embedded Soft Error Detect (SED) macro for high-reliability applications.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Design entry and synthesis are performed using the Lattice Diamond design software. For hardware evaluation, engineers typically use the LatticeXP2 Brevia2 Development Kit or similar FTBGA256 prototyping boards. Programming is handled via the JTAG interface or through the Transparent Field Reconfiguration (TransFR) process for in-system updates.
