EPM570F100A5N

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Overview

The Altera EPM570F100A5N is a Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) belonging to the MAX II family. It features 570 logic elements organized into 440 macrocells and provides 76 I/O pins within a 100-pin FBGA package. The device utilizes non-volatile Flash memory for configuration, supporting system-in-programmability. It operates with an internal supply voltage range of 1.71V to 1.89V and supports external voltages of 2.5V or 3.3V. The maximum propagation delay is 5.4 ns, and it functions across an industrial temperature range of -40°C to 100°C.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'A5N' against official Intel/Altera documentation to confirm the extended temperature grade (-40°C to 100°C) and lead-free status. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with current datasheets to ensure no obsolescence notices or packaging changes have occurred since the last production update.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-density CPLD with non-volatile storage is required for simple state machines or glue logic. Ensure the design accommodates the 100-LBGA footprint and that the 76 available I/Os meet the pin count requirements. Confirm that the 5.4 ns speed grade satisfies the timing constraints of the target application.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Part Context

This part is part of the Altera MAX II family, designed as a cost-effective alternative to older EPROM-based CPLDs. It serves as a drop-in replacement for many legacy logic functions in embedded systems, offering lower power consumption and higher density than previous generations like the MAX 7000 series.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Replacement Considerations

Pin-compatible alternatives within the MAX II family include EPM570T100A5N (TQFP package) or EPM570GF100A5N (if available). Verify electrical specifications and package dimensions before substitution.
