Using the Lattice MachXO2 PLD’s hardened block functions you can easily add extra functions and more I/Os to a low pin count/low cost MCU based design. This reduces component cost, saves board space and saves power vs. using a higher pin count MCU. Also, the MachXO2 carries no overhead since it needs no configuration device.


Lattice MachXO2 PLD - Processor I/O

  • Discover how the hardened dual I2C, SPI, and Timer/Counter functions augment the flexible I/Os and logic blocks in the MachXO2 to efficiently support MCU-based designs.
  • See how a sensor monitoring solution example takes full advantage of the MachXO2 I/O expansion capabilities.
  • Watch the 7-minute video to better understand how the MachXO2 efficiently integrates system functionality and how easy it is to get started with free design tools, IP trials and reference designs.
