Complex Programmable Logic Devices Part Context

This component is part of the Altera MAX II series, designed as a low-cost, high-density CPLD solution. It serves as a successor to older GAL and PAL devices, offering reprogrammability and higher density than discrete logic solutions while maintaining lower power consumption compared to early FPGA families.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Replacement Considerations

The datasheet indicates this specific part number has a status of 'End of Life' or discontinuance. Designers should verify current availability through official Intel/Altera channels and consider pin-compatible alternatives within the MAX II family or newer Intel Agilex/Cyclone series if long-term supply assurance is required.
