Lattice Semiconductor has introduced MachXO3LF, the latest member of its MachXO3 FPGA family, which provides basic bridging and I / O expansion capabilities to meet the growing connectivity requirements of the communications, computing, consumer and industrial markets.
MachXO3LF devices have on-chip Flash for configuration and use. They utilize the same advanced packaging technology as the MachXO3L series, thus providing a compact package and the highest I / O density on the market. Pin compatibility makes it easy for customers to migrate between MachXO3L and MachXO3LF devices without changing the printed circuit board design. With MachXO3LF devices, customers can benefit from FPGA design code changes during the engineering development phase or during field design upgrades, and then easily migrate to lower-cost MachXO3L devices when the design is complete or no upgrade is required. Lattice Diamond design software version 3.4.1 (and later) supports the new MachXO3LF device.
The MachXO3 FPGA family of devices enables manufacturers to save costs through a variety of solutions, including MIPI CSI-2 image sensor interface, DSI LCD display interface, microprocessor interface expansion and system power sequencing, and perform multiple control functions.
Jim Tavacoli, senior director of marketing at Lattice Semiconductor, said: "The MachXO3 family of products is warmly welcomed by industry observers, and more importantly, customers who use the MachXO3 family of products to differentiate their products also welcome this." "MachXO3LF devices have passed Customers offer more choices to continue their product line. "The
MachXO3 FPGA family has achieved widespread success in mobile, consumer, industrial, computing, and communications applications. It has the lowest I / O cost, small footprint, low power consumption, high I / O quantity, high I / O density, and low-cost NVCM or flash memory options for programming and configuration, making MachXO3 FPGAs a customer's The company was selected by default, indicating that CPLDs and low-density FPGA devices are the best choice.
