Complex Programmable Logic Devices Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number includes the 'N' suffix (EPM570F256C4N), as distributors list this specific variant. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3) prior to ordering. Check for recent Product Change Notifications regarding label changes or software updates associated with the MAX II series.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Selection Notes

Select this component when 440 macrocells and 160 I/Os are required in a high-pin-count BGA package. Ensure the design accommodates the 5.4 ns maximum delay. Verify that the target application supports the specified 0°C to 85°C junction temperature range and compatible supply voltages.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Part Context

This CPLD is part of the Altera MAX II family, designed for low-cost, low-power applications. It serves as a successor to older GAL and PAL devices, offering non-volatile Flash memory storage for configuration data without external PROMs.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements within the same package and logic density are limited within the MAX II family. Consider the EPM570T144C5N for lower pin counts or other MAX II variants if package constraints allow.
