Lattice LatticeECP/EC Family

LatticeECP/EC Family

Description

The LatticeECP/EC family of FPGA devices is optimized to deliver mainstream FPGA features at low cost. For maximum performance and value, the LatticeECP (EConomy Plus) FPGA concept combines an efficient FPGA fabric with high-speed dedicated functions. Lattice’s first family to implement this approach is the LatticeECPDSP (EConomy Plus DSP) family, providing dedicated high-performance DSP blocks on-chip. The LatticeEC (EConomy) family supports all the general purpose features of LatticeECP devices without dedicated function blocks to achieve lower cost solutions. The LatticeECP/EC FPGA fabric, which was designed from the outset with low cost in mind, contains all the critical FPGA elements: LUT-based logic, distributed and embedded memory, PLLs and support for mainstream I/Os. Dedicated DDR memory interface logic is also included to support this memory that is becoming increasingly prevalent in cost-sensitive applications. The ispLEVER design tool suite from Lattice allows large complex designs to be efficiently implemented using the LatticeECP/EC FPGA family. Synthesis library support for LatticeECP/EC is available for popular logic synthesis tools. The ispLEVER tool uses the synthesis tool output along with the constraints from its floor planning tools to place and route the design in the LatticeECP/EC device. The ispLEVER tool extracts the timing from the routing and back-annotates it into the design for timing verification. Lattice provides many pre-designed IP (Intellectual Property) ispLeverCORE modules for the LatticeECP/EC family. By using these IPs as standardized blocks, designers are free to concentrate on the unique aspects of their design, increasing their productivity
