Complex Programmable Logic Devices Procurement Notes

This component is listed as obsolete or end-of-life by the manufacturer. Verification of authenticity is critical when sourcing from secondary markets. Confirm that the specific revision matches the required electrical characteristics, particularly the 3.3V operation and EEPROM retention properties, as older stock may vary in condition.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Selection Notes

Select this part for designs requiring moderate density with non-volatile configuration and low power consumption. Ensure the PCB layout accommodates the FBGA-100 package pitch. Verify that the design tool supports the MAX 7000A family constraints. Consider pin compatibility with 5.0V MAX 7000S devices if migrating legacy designs, though voltage levels must be managed carefully.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Part Context

The EPM7128AEFI100-7 is part of the MAX 7000A series, which succeeded the original MAX 7000 family. It provides enhanced performance and lower power compared to its predecessors while maintaining pin compatibility with certain 5.0V variants. The 'AE' suffix denotes the advanced EEPROM-based version optimized for 3.3V applications.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements include other members of the MAX 7000A family such as the EPM7128AEI100-7 (different package). For higher density needs, the MAX 7000S series offers 5.0V alternatives but requires voltage level translation.
