LFE5U-45F-6BG381C
44K-cell Lattice ECP5 general purpose FPGA in caBGA-381 with 1.9 Mb RAM and 72 multipliers for bridging, video and control.
The LFE5U-45F-6BG381C is a Lattice ECP5 general purpose FPGA with 44K logic cells, 1.9 Mb of embedded RAM and 72 sysDSP multipliers in a 381-ball caBGA package. ECP5 was optimized by Lattice for low cost, small form factor and low power, which makes it a practical way to add programmable connectivity or acceleration to a system built around an ASIC or ASSP without paying for more FPGA than the design needs. The 44K-cell fabric is large enough for video pipelines, protocol bridges, motor-control logic and modest DSP data paths, while the sysDSP blocks accelerate multipliers and filters. ECP5 supports dual-channel SerDes on the UM and UM5G versions for high-speed serial links, and the F suffix denotes an enhanced-feature device with a full I/O complement. The caBGA-381 package balances I/O count and board area, and the device configures from external SPI flash for fast, repeatable boot. ECP5 is also offered in an automotive variant with AEC-Q100 qualification. Every device is factory-traceable and ships with import declaration, certificate of origin and RoHS documentation. Designers should plan the configuration scheme, the I/O standards and the power rails before layout. BeiLuo holds this part in regional stock and our FAE team supports selection, configuration and I/O timing.
FAE Professional Review
The LFE5U-45F-6BG381C is the ECP5 density we see most in bridging and control designs. 44K cells and 72 multipliers cover a lot of glue, video and DSP work, and the package is easy to route. Plan the SPI flash and the power rails early and this device is very predictable to bring up.

Frequently Asked Questions
What projects suit the LFE5U-45F-6BG381C?
It fits designs that need 44K cells of programmable logic for bridging, video glue or control, where an ASIC would be too rigid and a larger FPGA too costly. The 72 multipliers cover modest DSP data paths.
For hardened high-speed interfaces, consider the Certus-NX alternative.
How do I configure an ECP5 device?
ECP5 configures from an external SPI flash at power-up, and you can program the flash through JTAG on the board. Use the sysCONFIG settings in the Lattice toolchain and verify the configuration time against your system boot requirement.
Our FAE team can review your configuration scheme.
