ISPLSI2096-125LQ

With the increasing complexity of electronic systems, engineers need programmable logic devices that can balance speed, density, and energy efficiency.The ISPLSI2096-125LQ is one of the complex programmable logic devices (CPLDs) in the Lattice Semiconductor ispLSI 2000 series, which is specifically designed to meet these requirements. With in-system programmability, precise timing, and strong I/O support, this chip has become a reliable choice for applications in telecommunications, industrial automation, consumer electronics, and aerospace.

At DRex Electronics, we specialize in the purchase of advanced and traditional semiconductor components such as the ISPLSI2096-125LQ to ensure production continuity for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and manufacturers.

 

What is the ISPLSI2096-125LQ?

ISPLSI2096-125LQ is a high-density CPLD that provides 96 macrocells with a flexible interconnect structure and in-system programming (ISP) capability.

This device belongs to Lattice’s ispLSI 2000 series, which has been specifically designed to achieve faster design, simplify board complexity, and reduce total cost of ownership compared to discrete logic solutions.

These components feature an EEPROM-based configuration function, which means that they retain their functions even in the event of a power failure, whereas SRAM-based FPGAs require external configuration memory.
