5M240ZT100C5N

Overview

The Altera 5M240ZT100C5N is a MAX V series Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) featuring 240 logic elements and 192 equivalent macrocells. It operates with a single 1.8-V core supply and supports MultiVolt I/O levels of 3.3 V, 2.5 V, 1.8 V, 1.5 V, and 1.2 V. The device includes 8 Kbits of user flash memory and an internal oscillator. It utilizes a 100-pin Thin Quad Flat Pack (TQFP) package and supports In-System Programming via JTAG.

Feature Summary

• Non-volatile Flash architecture with instant-on configuration time of 0.5 ms or less
• Single 1.8-V external power supply requirement for the device core
• MultiVolt I/O interface supporting 3.3 V, 2.5 V, 1.8 V, 1.5 V, and 1.2 V logic levels
• Integrated 8 Kbits User Flash Memory block for non-volatile data storage

Applications

• I/O expansion
• Bus and protocol bridging
• FPGA configuration
• Power monitoring and control
• Analog IC interface

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific speed grade suffix '5' against design timing requirements, as it denotes a slower performance tier compared to the '-4' grade. Confirm that the 100-pin TQFP package dimensions align with the target PCB footprint. Ensure the design accounts for the single 1.8 V core voltage requirement while managing the separate VCCIO supplies for the supported MultiVolt I/O standards.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-cost, low-power CPLD with non-volatile configuration is required. The 5M240Z density provides 240 logic elements suitable for moderate complexity logic functions. Consider the -5 speed grade if propagation delay constraints are less stringent than those requiring the faster -4 grade. Verify compatibility with the Quartus II software environment for design implementation.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Altera MAX V family, which offers vertical migration capabilities within the same package type. The 5M240Z variant sits between the 5M160Z and 5M570Z densities in terms of logic resources. The 'T' indicates the TQFP package, '100' specifies the pin count, 'C' denotes commercial temperature range, and 'N' signifies lead-free packaging.

Replacement Considerations

Within the MAX V family, the 5M240ZT100C4N serves as a faster speed-grade alternative in the same package. For higher density needs in the same footprint, the 5M570ZT100C5N is available but requires verification of pinout compatibility due to different I/O counts.
