As the high-end model within the CrossLink-NX family, the LIFCL-40-9BG400C integrates extensive resources within its compact 17mm × 17mm package:
Robust Logic and Processing Capabilities: The LIFCL-40-9BG400C delivers 39,000 logic elements and 9,750 look-up tables (LUT4), enabling tasks ranging from interface bridging to complex coprocessing.
Optimised storage and DSP resources: Featuring up to 1.5 Mb of embedded block RAM (EBR) alongside additional distributed RAM, it provides ample space for data buffering and packet processing. Concurrently, its integrated DSP multipliers efficiently execute multiply-accumulate operations for AI inference, accelerating the implementation of edge AI applications.
Flexible high-speed I/O interfaces: The LIFCL-40-9BG400C supports up to 192 user I/O points. Notably, it integrates a hardened MIPI D-PHY operating at speeds up to 2.5 Gbps and a PCIe Gen2 hardened IP running at 5 Gbps, enabling seamless connectivity to today's most prevalent image sensors, displays, and high-performance processors.

With these capabilities, the LIFCL-40-9BG400C proves ideal for multiple cutting-edge applications:
Embedded Vision Systems: In machine vision, intelligent security surveillance, and industrial cameras, it functions as a sensor bridge and aggregator, consolidating data from multiple MIPI or LVDS image sensors for unified output to the application processor.
Edge Artificial Intelligence (AI): When paired with Lattice's sensAI solution, this FPGA executes lightweight convolutional neural network (CNN) models at milliwatt-level power consumption. This enables object counting, detection, and classification, bringing intelligence from the cloud down to edge devices.
Industrial Automation and Control: Within PLCs, robotics control and human-machine interfaces (HMIs), its multi-protocol support and instantaneous start-up capability (I/O configuration in just 3ms) ensure system real-time performance and flexibility.
Communications and Computing: Suitable for packet acceleration and protocol conversion in 5G small cells and SmartNICs, utilising PCIe hard cores for high-speed data transmission.
