EPM570M100I5N

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Overview

The EPM570M100I5N is a MAX II series Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) manufactured by Altera. It features 440 macrocells, 570 logic elements, and 76 I/O pins housed in a 100-pin MBGA package. The device supports system-in-programmability via JTAG and utilizes non-volatile Flash memory for configuration retention without external components. Operating voltages include internal 2.5V and 3.3V supplies. Key electrical parameters specify a maximum propagation delay of 5.4 ns and a maximum operating frequency of 304 MHz. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -40°C to 100°C.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Feature Summary

• Contains 440 macrocells and 57 logic array blocks (LABs).
• Supports In-System Programming (ISP) via JTAG interface.
• Utilizes Flash technology for non-volatile storage, eliminating the need for external configuration devices.
• Operates with dual voltage domains: 2.5V core and 3.3V I/O.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Applications

• Logic glue applications for replacing discrete logic gates.
• Bus conversion and protocol bridging between different voltage domains.
• Address decoding and control signal generation in embedded systems.
• Simple state machine implementation for timing control.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I5' confirms the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +100°C) and speed grade 5. Confirm the 'M100' designation corresponds to the 100-pin MBGA package. Check current manufacturer status as MAX II products may have end-of-life notifications or production changes documented in PCNs. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprint and reflow profiles for TFBGA packages.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Selection Notes

Select this model when 440 macrocells are sufficient for the design complexity. Choose the 'I5' variant over 'C5' if operation below 0°C is required. Verify that the 5.4 ns delay meets the timing constraints of the target clock frequency. Consider the 100-pin BGA package size constraints during mechanical layout planning.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Part Context

This part belongs to the Altera MAX II family, which bridges the gap between simple PALs/GALs and larger FPGAs. It offers a cost-effective solution for low-to-medium density logic applications. The EPM570 variant provides higher density than the EPM240 while maintaining similar power consumption characteristics and programming interfaces.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements within the same package and speed grade are limited due to specific suffix variations. Equivalent logic density parts from other manufacturers require schematic and layout redesign. Verify if the EPM570M100C5N is suitable if industrial temperature range is not strictly required.
