EPM3064ALI44-10

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Overview

The Altera EPM3064ALI44-10 is a Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) belonging to the MAX 3000A family. It features 64 macrocells, 1,250 usable gates, and 34 user I/O pins within a 44-pin PLCC package. Operating at a 3.3-V supply voltage, it delivers a maximum pin-to-pin propagation delay of 4.5 ns and supports counter frequencies up to 222.2 MHz. The device utilizes CMOS EEPROM technology for non-volatile configuration and supports in-system programming via an IEEE Std. 1149.1 JTAG interface.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Feature Summary

• MAX 3000A architecture with 64 macrocells organized into 4 logic array blocks (LABs).
• MultiVolt I/O interface compatible with 5.0-V, 3.3-V, and 2.5-V logic levels.
• In-system programmability (ISP) compliant with IEEE Std. 1149.1 and IEEE Std. 1532.
• Built-in boundary-scan test (BST) circuitry for manufacturing testing.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Applications

• PCI Local Bus Specification Revision 2.2 compatible logic functions.
• Transistor-to-transistor logic (TTL) emulation for legacy system integration.
• High-density small-scale (SSI), medium-scale (MSI), and large-scale integration (LSI) logic replacement.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity and physical condition upon receipt. Confirm that the part matches the specified 44-pin PLCC package and speed grade -10. Ensure handling procedures account for moisture sensitivity as indicated by manufacturer guidelines.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Selection Notes

Select this model when 64 macrocells and 34 I/Os are required in a 44-pin footprint. The -10 speed grade provides 4.5 ns delay suitable for PCI-compliant designs. Consider the EPM3064ATC44-10 if a TQFP package is preferred over PLCC.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Part Context

This component is part of the Altera MAX 3000A series, which offers low-cost, high-performance CPLDs. The family ranges from 600 to 10,000 usable gates, supporting various packages including PLCC, PQFP, and TQFP. The EPM3064A variant specifically targets applications requiring moderate logic density with fast timing performance.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Replacement Considerations

Direct functional equivalents within the same package include other MAX 3000A devices with identical or faster speed grades, such as the EPM3064ALI44-7N or EPM3064ALI44-4. Cross-family replacements like the EPM7064AE require architectural verification due to differences in logic structure and power consumption characteristics.
