Highlighted values are higher. LUT counts are shown as published; the LUT4 equivalent is an approximation to compare different LUT types, see how FPGA vendors count logic. Add up to two more devices to this comparison.

Key differences

The SLG47910 has about 17% more logic capacity (1.5K vs 1.2K LUT4 equivalents).

They use different logic architectures: the SLG47910 is built from LUT5 and the iCE40UL1K from LUT4, so the raw LUT counts (1.1K vs 1.2K) are not directly comparable.

The iCE40UL1K has more on-chip memory (0.1 Mb vs 0 Mb).

Configuration memory: non-volatile (otp) or spi flash on the SLG47910, nvcm on the iCE40UL1K.

The SLG47910 is designed with Renesas Go Configure Software Hub and the iCE40UL1K with Lattice iCEcube2.
