LCMXO2280C-M-EVN

The LCMXO2280C-M-EVN is a MachXO mini development kit. It is an easy to use, low cost platform for evaluating and designing with MachXO PLDs. The kit is based on a small form factor evaluation board that features the MachXO LCMXO2280 device. To get started quickly, the board comes with the MachXO PLD pre programmed with a miniature system on chip (Mini SoC) design that integrates multiple reference designs including the LatticeMico8 (LM8) microcontroller, WISHBONE interconnect and peripheral controllers for on board SPI, SRAM, and I2C. The board can be controlled with switches and a menu driven interface via a Windows or Linux terminal program over an RS232/USB link. An on board I2C bus connects the MachXO PLD to an I2C temperature sensor. and an on board SPI bus is also provided that connects the MachXO PLD to a 2Mbit non volatile SPI flash memory. The MachXO PLD sleep mode feature allows standby current to be reduced dramatically during periods of system inactivity.
