• Supports In-System Programming (ISP) for flexible field updates.
• Utilizes non-volatile Flash technology for instant-on operation without external configuration devices.
• Operates within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to 85°C.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Applications

• General-purpose digital logic implementation.
• Bus protocol conversion and interface bridging.
• Address decoding and control logic generation.
• Replacement for legacy GAL or PAL devices.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'C4N' against the manufacturer's current Max II Device Order Guide to confirm availability status and any recent packaging label changes. Check for Product Change Notifications (PCNs) regarding manufacturing site or labeling updates prior to procurement.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-pin-count CPLD with Flash-based non-volatility is required. Ensure the design accommodates the 100-TFBGA footprint and that the 5.4 ns speed grade meets timing constraints. Verify voltage compatibility with both 2.5V and 3.3V domains if mixed-voltage interfaces are present.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Part Context

This part is part of the broader EPM570 series, which includes variants with different packages such as TQFP (EPM570T100...) and FBGA (EPM570F100...). The 'M' designation specifically identifies the MBGA/TFBGA package type, distinguishing it from the TQFP or FBGA alternatives within the same logical architecture.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements include other EPM570 variants with different speed grades or packages, such as EPM570M100C5N. Cross-family upgrades may require schematic and layout modifications.
