LSCCiCE40HX8K-CB132
Overview
The iCE40HX8K-CB132 is a mid-range FPGA from Lattice's iCE40 HX family aimed at applications that need more LUT capacity and higher performance than the smaller iCE40 devices. It provides a compact, low-power programmable fabric for implementing custom logic, protocol bridges, and hardware accelerators in space-constrained designs. The CB132 designation identifies the package used for this orderable part number.
Why Choose This Part
Choose the iCE40HX8K-CB132 when you need a balance of increased LUT capacity and low power in a small package. The iCE40 family is well-suited for battery-operated or space-constrained designs and benefits from both Lattice's official tool support and a mature open-source toolchain (Project IceStorm, yosys, nextpnr). The device lets you implement custom hardware accelerators, precise I/O timing, and protocol conversion without the power or cost of larger FPGA families.
Applications
Getting Started
Start with Lattice documentation and the iCE40 HX family product and development resources on Lattice's website; evaluation kits for the iCE40 HX family are available from Lattice and distributors. For toolchains, you can use Lattice's official development tools and the popular open-source flow (Project IceStorm with yosys and nextpnr) plus GUI helpers like IceStudio for rapid experimentation. Practical advice: pick an evaluation or breakout board that exposes the signals and configuration flash you need, and confirm your board-level power and I/O voltage requirements before prototyping.
