LatticeECP3-35 Extends Low Power, Low Cost Benefits to Video, Security/Surveillance and Communications Applications

The LatticeECP3-35 device in the award-winning, high-value, low-power LatticeECP3 mid-range FPGA family, has been fully qualified and released to volume production. This low-power FPGA is ideal for high-volume, low-power and low-cost designs in video, security/surveillance, industrial, embedded and communications applications.

Features

• 33 K LUT4s of logic capacity to implement complex designs
• Up to 4 SERDES channels with data rates from 150 Mbps to 3.2 Gbps supporting a wide range of serial protocols: PCI Express, Ethernet (1GbE, SGMII, XAUI), CPRI, Serial RapidIO 2.1, SONET/SDH, SPI4 and 3G SMPTE
• Proven low-cost wirebond packaging
• 1.3 Mbits of embedded memory and 68 Kbits of distributed RAM
• Fully-cascadable DSP architecture with 64 18x18 multipliers and powerful 54-bit ALU operation
• Two DLLs and four PLLs
• Up to 310 I/O with programmable sysIO buffer support for a wide range of interfaces including 800 Mbps DDR3
• 1 Gbps LVDS I/O, with Input Delay blocks, allows interfacing to high-performance ADCs and DACs
• Lowest Total Power when compared with SERDES-capable FPGAs in its density range 

Intellectual Property

A range of Intellectual Property (IP) cores, including FIR Filters, FFT, Reed-Solomon Encoders, Reed-Solomon Decoders, CORDIC, CIC, NCO for DSP functions, CPRI, OBSAI, Serial RapidIO, XAUI, SGMII/Gigabit Ethernet, PCI Express, Tri-Rate SDI PHY for serial connectivity, and DDR, DDR2, and DDR3 for memory interfaces, are available from Lattice and its partners to enable designers to develop rapid time-to-market design solutions.

Software

The LatticeECP3 FPGA family is supported by the ispLEVER design tool suite, version 8.0 Service Pack 1 which provides a complete set of powerful tools for all design tasks, including project management, IP integration, design planning, power analysis, place and route, on-chip logic analysis and more.
