ECP5 Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC 205 3833856 84000 381-FBGA

General Description

The ECP5™/ECP5-5G™ family of FPGA devices is optimized to deliver high performance features such as an enhanced DSP

architecture, high speed SERDES (Serializer/Deserializer), and high speed source synchronous interfaces, in an economical

FPGA fabric. This combination is achieved through advances in device architecture and the use of 40 nm technology

making the devices suitable for high-volume, high-speed, and low-cost applications.

The ECP5/ECP5-5G device family covers look-up-table (LUT) capacity to 84K logic elements and supports up to 365 user

I/O. The ECP5/ECP5-5G device family also offers up to 156 18 x 18 multipliers and a wide range of parallel I/O standards.

The ECP5/ECP5-5G FPGA fabric is optimized high performance with low power and low cost in mind. The ECP5/ ECP5-5G

devices utilize reconfigurable SRAM logic technology and provide popular building blocks such as LUT-based logic,

distributed and embedded memory, Phase-Locked Loops (PLLs), Delay-Locked Loops (DLLs), pre-engineered source

synchronous I/O support, enhanced sysDSP slices and advanced configuration support, including encryption and dual-boot

capabilities.

The pre-engineered source synchronous logic implemented in the ECP5/ECP5-5G device family supports a broad range of

interface standards including DDR2/3, LPDDR2/3, XGMII, and 7:1 LVDS.

The ECP5/ECP5-5G device family also features high speed SERDES with dedicated Physical Coding Sublayer (PCS) functions.

High jitter tolerance and low transmit jitter allow the SERDES plus PCS blocks to be configured to support an array of

popular data protocols including PCI Express, Ethernet (XAUI, GbE, and SGMII) and CPRI. Transmit De-emphasis with

pre- and post-cursors, and Receive Equalization settings make the SERDES suitable for transmission and reception over

various forms of media.

The ECP5/ECP5-5G devices also provide flexible, reliable and secure configuration options, such as dual-boot capability,

bit-stream encryption, and TransFR field upgrade features.

ECP5-5G family devices have made some enhancement in the SERDES compared to ECP5UM devices. These enhancements

increase the performance of the SERDES to up to 5 Gb/s data rate.

The ECP5-5G family devices are pin-to-pin compatible with the ECP5UM devices. These allows a migration path for you to

port designs from ECP5UM to ECP5-5G devices to get higher performance.

The Lattice Diamond™ design software allows large complex designs to be efficiently implemented using the ECP5/ECP5-5G

FPGA family. Synthesis library support for ECP5/ECP5-5G devices is available for popular logic synthesis tools. The

Diamond tools use the synthesis tool output along with the constraints from its floor planning tools to place and route the

design in the ECP5/ECP5-5G device. The tools extract the timing from the routing and back-annotate it into the design for

timing verification.

Lattice provides many pre-engineered IP (Intellectual Property) modules for the ECP5/ECP5-5G family. Byusing these

configurable soft core IPs as standardized blocks, designers are free to concentrate on the unique aspects of their design,

increasing their productivity.
