ICE40LM4K-CM36 FPGAs Overview
iCE40LM family is an ultra-low power FPGA and sensor manager designed for ultra-low power mobile applications, such as smartphones, tablets and hand-held devices. The iCE40LM family includes integrated SPI & I2C blocks to interface with virtually all mobile sensors and application processors. The iCE40LM family also features two Strobe Generators that can generates strobes in Microsecond ranges with the Low-Power Strobe Generator, and also generates strobes in Nanosecond ranges with the High-Speed Strobe Generator. In addition, the iCE40LM family of devices includes logic to perform other functions such as mobile bridging, antenna tuning, GPIO expansion, motion/gesture recognition, IR remote control, bar code emulation and other custom functions. The iCE40LM family features three device densities, from 1000 to 3520 Look Up Tables (LUTs) of logic with programmable I/Os that can be used as either SPI/I2C interface ports or general purpose I/O's. It also has up to 80Kbits of Block RAMs to work with user logic.

In addition to the iCE40LM4K Evaluation Board, an adapter board for connection
to Dragon Board and a connector cable are also included. This secondary PCB
connected by a cable allows the iCE40LM4k Sensor Evaluation Kit to interface
with a Qualcomm 8060A Dragon Board (Dragon Board is available separately and not
sold by Lattice). When connected properly, a sensor hub demonstration can be
conducted.
