5M40ZE64A5N

Overview

The Altera 5M40ZE64A5N is a Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) belonging to the MAX V family. It features 32 macrocells and supports up to 54 I/O pins within a 64-pin EQFP package. The device utilizes non-volatile Flash technology for configuration, eliminating the need for external configuration memory. Key electrical specifications include a maximum propagation delay of 7.5 ns and an internal supply voltage range of 1.71V to 1.89V. It operates within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C.

Feature Summary

• 32 Macrocells with 54 available I/Os in a 64-EQFP package
• Non-volatile Flash-based architecture for instant-on operation
• Maximum propagation delay of 7.5 ns
• Internal core voltage range of 1.71V to 1.89V

Applications

• Low-power embedded logic control
• Address decoding and bus bridging
• Interface translation between different voltage domains
• Simple state machine implementation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'A5N' against official Altera documentation to confirm the commercial temperature grade (0°C to 70°C) and package type. Ensure compatibility with Quartus Prime software versions supporting the MAX V family. Check for RoHS compliance status as indicated in current manufacturer notices.

Selection Notes

Select this component when non-volatile storage is required without external configuration chips. Compare macrocell count and I/O density against similar MAX V parts like the 5M160Z series if higher logic capacity is needed. Confirm that the 64-pin EQFP footprint matches the PCB design constraints.

Part Context

This part is part of the Altera MAX V family, designed for cost-sensitive and low-power applications. It serves as a drop-in replacement for older EEPROM-based CPLDs while offering faster programming cycles and higher reliability due to Flash technology. The 'A' suffix typically denotes the commercial temperature range.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible alternatives within the MAX V family include the 5M40ZE64I5N for industrial temperature ranges or the 5M160ZE64A5N for increased logic resources. Verify that any substitute maintains the same 64-EQFP package dimensions and voltage requirements.
