5M40ZM64I5N

Overview

The Altera 5M40ZM64I5N is a MAX V series Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) featuring 32 macrocells and 40 logic elements. It operates at a maximum frequency of 152 MHz with a typical propagation delay of 7.5 ns. The device utilizes non-volatile Flash memory for configuration, eliminating the need for external configuration chips. It supports a supply voltage range of 1.71 V to 1.89 V and includes 30 I/O pins. Packaged in a 64-TFBGA (4.5x4.5 mm) format, it is designed for surface-mount installation and functions within an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +100°C.

Feature Summary

• Non-volatile Flash architecture enables immediate operation upon power-up without external configuration memory.
• Integrated user-accessible Flash memory allows for storage of configuration parameters or serial numbers.
• Supports flexible I/O voltage levels including 1.8V, 2.5V, and 3.3V across independent banks.
• System-in-Programmable (SIP) capability via JTAG interface for in-system reprogramming.

Applications

• Level translation between different voltage domains in mixed-signal systems.
• Bus buffering and protocol conversion for legacy interfaces.
• Power sequencing control and reset management in embedded boards.
• Address decoding and simple state machine implementation.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'M' indicates the 64-TFBGA package variant distinct from other pinouts. Confirm RoHS compliance status as per current manufacturer declarations. Check moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3) requirements for storage and handling prior to assembly. Ensure the design accommodates the 4.5x4.5 mm footprint dimensions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when non-vatility is required to avoid external configuration EEPROMs. Suitable for designs needing moderate I/O counts (30 pins) with mixed voltage standards. Compare against EPM240 series if higher logic density (240 LEs) is needed. Verify that the 7.5 ns delay meets timing constraints for the target clock frequencies.

Part Context

Part of the Intel (Altera) MAX V family, which bridges the gap between low-end GALs and high-end FPGAs. It shares architectural similarities with MAX II but offers improved performance and lower power consumption. The 5M40Z variant specifically denotes the 32-macrocell count within the Z-series lineup.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements are limited within the same family. Consider 5M40ZE64I5N for QFP packaging if BGA assembly is not feasible. For higher density, EPM240T100I5N offers more resources but requires different PCB layout. Verify software compatibility with Quartus Prime Lite edition.
