5M160ZE64C4N

Overview

The Altera 5M160ZE64C4N is a Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) belonging to the MAX V family. It features 160 logic elements organized into 8 Logic Array Blocks (LABs) and provides 128 macrocells with 54 I/O pins. The device operates on a 1.8V supply voltage, ranging from 1.71V to 1.89V, with a maximum operating frequency of 152 MHz and a propagation delay of 7.5 ns. It utilizes Flash memory technology for non-volatile configuration and supports surface-mount installation in a QFP-64 package. The component is rated for commercial temperature operation between 0°C and +70°C.

Feature Summary

• MAX V series CPLD with 160 logic elements and 128 macrocells
• Flash-based non-volatile storage eliminating external configuration requirements
• High-speed performance with 152 MHz max frequency and 7.5 ns propagation delay
• Low power consumption with 25 uA standby current

Applications

• General-purpose digital logic replacement
• Address decoding and bus bridging
• Interface translation between different voltage domains
• Simple state machine implementation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix C4N confirms the commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C) and QFP-64 package variant. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation or authorized distributor datasheets prior to integration. Ensure ESD handling protocols are followed during assembly due to moisture sensitivity classification.

Selection Notes

Select this model when 160 logic elements and 54 I/Os are required within a QFP-64 footprint. Compare against the 5M160ZE64I5N if industrial temperature ratings (-40°C to +85°C) are necessary instead of commercial grades. Consider the 5M80ZE64C4N if reduced logic capacity suffices for the design constraints.

Part Context

This component is part of the Altera MAX V family, designed for low-cost, low-power applications requiring non-volatile programmability. The MAX V series integrates Flash memory directly on-chip, simplifying system design by removing the need for external configuration PROMs commonly required by other CPLD families.

Replacement Considerations

The 5M160ZE64I5N serves as a direct pin-compatible alternative offering an extended industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C). Other MAX V devices with identical packages may require logic resource verification to ensure sufficient capacity.
