Starter kit allows MachXO3L FPGA evaluation

Lattice Semiconductor has made available the MachXO3L Starter Kit, a platform for evaluating and designing with its MachXO3L FPGAs.

The Starter Kit consists of reference designs preloaded onto a LCMXO3L-6900C-5BG256C device for demonstration and bring up of the embedded I2C and SPI controllers, as well as the oscillator and programmable I/O used for LED drive.

The kit includes a USB connector for power and programming, LEDs, a prototyping area and an expansion header landing for SPI, I2C and JTAG supported by 3.3V and 1.2V supply rails. The MachXO3L FPGA is supported by Lattice Diamond development tools.

"The Starter Kit gives customers an affordable tool to evaluate most of the MachXO3L device's basic functions," said Abul Nuruzzaman, MachXO product line manager.
