iCE40HX8K-CT256

The iCE40HX8K-CT256 is a Lattice iCE40 HX FPGA with 7,680 logic cells and 128 Kb of block RAM in a 256-ball caBGA package. The iCE40 HX family provides a larger programmable fabric than the UltraPlus devices for bridging, simple control and interface expansion while keeping the low-power character of the iCE40 architecture. Because it does not include SPRAM or DSP multipliers, the HX8K is best for logic-intensive rather than arithmetic-intensive functions, such as protocol conversion, I/O expansion, address decoding and glue between system components. The device configures from on-chip non-volatile memory or external flash and reaches its operating state quickly, and the architecture is compact and quick to place and route. The caBGA-256 package offers a high I/O count in a small area, which suits dense board layouts. The iCE40 HX range is supported by Lattice's toolchain and by open-source synthesis flows, which is valuable for research and for teams that prefer tool independence. Typical products include embedded controllers, industrial I/O modules, test equipment and consumer devices that need a little more logic than a CPLD but less power than a general purpose FPGA. Every device is factory-traceable and ships with import declaration, certificate of origin and RoHS documentation. BeiLuo holds this class in stock and our FAE team supports logic budgeting, configuration and I/O.
